+1 | |||||
| that is awesome, i wish i had a cell phone to try it out on | ||||||
| dont believe it : | ||||||
| I fail to believe it. | ||||||
| one'd for not turning this into a shock site, you totally could have added an "OH SNAP!" like five seconds into it |
-1 | |||||
| this gotta be a catch | ||||||
| if you dont beleive it your a moron, im sitting here with it on full blast and my grandma cant hear it, but the cat does, and hes a little bit ticked off | ||||||
| I have this on full blast, I'm asking my mom "Do you hear that" and she says no... I wonder how to put this on my cell... | ||||||
| "I fail to believe it."
You fail in general. | ||||||
| Agh.. sh*t man! | ||||||
| i dont know of a cellphone that can output a sound like that | ||||||
| I hear it. My dog hears it. | ||||||
| I'm 25. I hear it. | ||||||
| Over 20 and can hear it loud and clear. =/ | ||||||
| yeah but i dunno for how long ill be able to...sirens and horns going full bore everyday at work take their toll | ||||||
| took me 10 minutes to get the courage to turn up the volume, i figured it would be a screamer. | ||||||
| aww, silent dog whistle | ||||||
| most cell phones can not play a sound at this high of a pitch | ||||||
| AH JESUS. YES I HEARD IT GOD DAMN. | ||||||
| my eardrums just imploded... | ||||||
| Sorry bro. your facts are off. My grandma said she could hear it. 3 for effort. | ||||||
| 5'ing it if only for the ring tone suggestion but it's awesome anyhow
| ||||||
| that scared the sh*t out of my cat rofl | ||||||
| ""I fail to believe it." You fail in general." 5 for that comment and your reply. | ||||||
| OMG PAIN WHY DID I HAVE TO BE USING MY SHURES WITH THE FOAM EARPIECES ... yeah, this can get annoying - that's why a UK company is making it a teen repellent, BTW http://digg.com/technology/Teenager_repellent_Mosquito_turned_into_ringtone | ||||||
| I've noticed the same pattern when around certain electronics. My parents don't hear it, but it irritates the heck out of me. I think 45 is a more accurate age. | ||||||
| 22, nearing 23, hearing it fine. Still a cool idea and all | ||||||
| Wow. | ||||||
| LOL OLD PEOPLE COME TO YTMDN LREL OH | ||||||
| science+ytmnd=solid win | ||||||
| doesnt seem high enough to me | ||||||
| LOL THATS FUNNY AND SAD LOL | ||||||
| Interesting concept +5* Annoying Sound -1*, I am 27, thus it failed, -1* | ||||||
| well i'm 19 and i can't hear it. | ||||||
| owwww, my fricken ears! I'm 23 and have been to a lot of punk rock concerts. Can hear that just fine. | ||||||
| i could hear it, my cat could not | ||||||
| I am 20, I can hear it, and thanks for making my f u c k i n g ears ring for about 5 mins after. Failure. | ||||||
| I'm 19 and couldn't. I hope it's just my computer... | ||||||
| ears pain high picthed pain in the ears ow baaad | ||||||
| Infamous, I'm holding you personally responsible for the blood pouring out of my ears. | ||||||
| I can faintly hear it after doubling my normal volume. | ||||||
| My TV does the same f*cking thing! Pisses me off CONSTANTLY! I'm 24 btw. :P | ||||||
| I'm 20, and it was not only clear as day, it was f*cking annoying. But, 5d because I found out that my sh*tty motherboard sound can apparently hit 18k Hz. | ||||||
| Ouch. Why do I only hear it out of my left ear/speaker...? | ||||||
| I just turned 21 and I can still hear it. And get off my lawn. | ||||||
| Oh yeah, here's a fun fact: The Beatles' "A Day in the Life" has a similar high-pitched tone after the minute-long piano waver at the end... it was supposedly included to piss the record owners' dogs off. It starts at 5m6s on my pirated .mp3 version. | ||||||
| I can hear it, I'm 27... am I ok? | ||||||
| Just listened to it. 22 and I hear it fine. | ||||||
| God this is annoying. | ||||||
| Good try, But it didn't succeed. | ||||||
| I think its if your over 20 you can hear it, I'm 17 and cannot. | ||||||
| turn it up to 20k ftw | ||||||
| jesus. fair warning. do NOT be wearing in-ear canal buds when you listen to this. my GOD. Ow. | ||||||
| ba-ba-ra-ra-cu-cu-da-da? | ||||||
| That's like when you turn a tv on and the screen is black. | ||||||
| I can hear it but I'm under 20 so you can't go by me.. | ||||||
| OW that hurts!!! dude i'm 19 and i can hear it just fine DAMN! | ||||||
| |||||||
| wow lmfao...
I can hear it. | ||||||
| I'm 26 and hear it loud and clear | ||||||
| i can't hear sh*t and i'm 17:( | ||||||
| fAIL. my mom can hear it. good try though | ||||||
| It worked. I can hear it, but my mom can't. Pretty cool. | ||||||
| I can't hear anything, althought that may be because my sound card sucks. | ||||||
| I'm 23, I hear it, and it's annoying as hell. | ||||||
| 5'd for Physics | ||||||
| I heard it, and now I hear ringing noises. | ||||||
| what the hell man, my mom can hear it but i can't... | ||||||
| I hear it clearly. | ||||||
| I used to do that in school, I could make a high pitch whine that everyone would hear and complain about, and the teacher couldn't hear it | ||||||
| To those who cannot hear it and are under the age of 20: Stop sticking it in your ear, that's not the lovehole. | ||||||
| I'm 21, I can hear it, and it is most irritating! | ||||||
| I'm over 20, could hear it and my dog(1yr old) didn't react at all | ||||||
| I'm 22 and I hear it. | ||||||
| It f*cking pisses me off how people are all like "OMG i'm 20 years old and i can hear it fine ur wrong111" | ||||||
| Correction, I upped the volume a bit and the dog freaked a bit | ||||||
| This sound is pissing off my cat. I think animals can really amplify high frequency noises like this. | ||||||
| It f*cked up the song I had playing at the time. Neat. | ||||||
| I shall try this on some 20 year olds! | ||||||
| I heard a subtle piercing sound that made my ears want to bleed. It was as if I were a mutant and this was in X-Men 2 when Professor X concentrates really hard on all the mutants in the world because that handicapped retard is controlling his mind. | ||||||
| I'm recently 21, and was able to hear it. My cats obviously can hear it as well. Mother doesn't seem to be able to hear it. Interesting. | ||||||
| *noise comes on* Shaggy: What's eatin you, scoob?" Scooby: *is going crazy because of noise, bites shaggy's leg"
Shaggy: Like youch, scoob!" | ||||||
| I don't hear sh*t. | ||||||
| Jesus that hurt | ||||||
| +5 cause my nephew can hear it. | ||||||
| I'm 25 and I hear it... I have a 30% hearing loss in my left ear, and attend local punk/hardcore shows at least twice a month. BOOYA BIATCH I AM SUPERIOR TO YOUR TEST. (But 5 anyway for something interesting.) | ||||||
| More like 16000; it's fun to mess about at school with these sort of waves, especially when they're stacked. | ||||||
| It could be that I'm on a laptop with a) crappy speakers and b) a crappy sound card, but I do know that I hear a ringing sound when I go to the page. | ||||||
| great :O | ||||||
| It's in the description nubs. MOST people over 20 can't hear it kthx? | ||||||
| I'm "over 20" and I heard it fine without cranking up my speakers. | ||||||
| 5'd for both neat and informational | ||||||
| hear it at 24 but still nice, dont know of a cell phone that can output that... thanks for not doing a screamer | ||||||
| my head hurts | ||||||
| Attention 20+ year olds, YTMND is beneficial for your hearing. The same unfortunately cannot be said for social lives. | ||||||
| I hear the humming like noise. Is that what I'm supposed to hear or is it something else. | ||||||
| I'm 16, can't hear sh*t.
My ears feel kind of pressured though. | ||||||
| Yeah you forget that a cellphone would cook itself before being able to reproduce those frequencies. | ||||||
| Pretty cool, any volume specifications for this? | ||||||
| it burns me | ||||||
| wouldn't it matter what setting your volume's on, lol | ||||||
| my ears exploded...and im over 20! | ||||||
| I'm 27 and hear it fine | ||||||
| Oh crap, I'm 19 and I can't hear it... | ||||||
| Use my cock entering your mom as your ringtone. |
-1 | |||||
| Thanks for making an awesome fact more evident. I've known about my ability to hear really really high pitch stuff- I can tell if a TV is on in the other room. But heck, its not just my super power! Its cause I'm young! AWESOME | ||||||
| wow... that hurt my ears. | ||||||
| what he said. | ||||||
| im 24 and can hear it and my head feels like it wants to explode now | ||||||
| I mean because people are like "my ears hurt", I can hear it perfectly and it doesn't bug me at full volume in my headphones. | ||||||
| Lol, I got both of my parents to listen to this. Neither of them could hear a thing, they thought I was bluffing them. | ||||||
| 3 for a good idea, but my mom of 44 years can hear it fine. | ||||||
| This hurts a little. | ||||||
| DOGS WERE BARKING
and yes, OH SNAP wouldn't go unwelcomed | ||||||
| this hurts like hell but my middle aged mom couldnt hear anything | ||||||
| ......... |
-1 | |||||
| I couldn't hear it myself and thought it was fake. But then my friend in the room doubled, covered his ears, and told me to turn it off. I thought it was quite funny. | ||||||
| I don't get how it can hurt anyone's ears. I've got it playing, it's high pitched, yes. But it's not bothering me. Sure, I doubt I'd listen to it all day, but... | ||||||
| I'm 18 and I hear nothing. | ||||||
| my mom thinks im messing with her -_- | ||||||
| From my experience and that of others, you sir are a BIG FAT PHONY | ||||||
| There's a company in England that is making "teenager repellent" using this same theory. It broadcasts this frequency in places where kids loiter (like outside convenient stores and such) to drive them away. Kids hear it, adults don't. I actually could just barely hear it, which says a lot about what I've done to my ears in a very short time. Damn sXe HC. | ||||||
| I'm 20. Heard it. Made my brain cry. | ||||||
| My dad hears it and hes 45. | ||||||
| When I turned 5.1 surround simulation off it worked. I can barely hear it NOW. | ||||||
| Hm... Seems whether or not you can hear this depends on how sharp your hearing is moreso than your age, but I guess for all intents and purposes, the older you are usually means the less sharp your ears are... | ||||||
| This how I can tell when a TV is on when it looks off. Btw my mom can't hear the tone. | ||||||
| i am 21 and can hear it ye bastard | ||||||
| people in my school havent stopped playing this sh*t since like 2 weeks ago, its so annoying, and some people over 20 can hear it, it just depends on your hearing | ||||||
| 1'd, for not turning it into a shock site. You could have added a loud scream or that scary sound from that Lindsay Lohan Nekkid YTMND. | ||||||
| anyone remember scanners? thats what my f*ckin head felt like when i listened to this. 2d for irritation | ||||||
| that is actually the exact sound of the ringing that's been in my left ear for the past 8 years, now if only i had the exact opposite of that sound to play and maybe it won't happen anymore. oh, plus i'm 21 and i heard it | ||||||
| Ow. That hurts the ears. | ||||||
| my ear :( | ||||||
| HAHA!!! I did hear it!!! | ||||||
| I think my ears are bleeding... | ||||||
| i hear it hurts my god damn ear | ||||||
| that really hurts my ears. | ||||||
| my mom is 38 and she can hear it | ||||||
| DAMNIT I CAN HEAR IT! | ||||||
| wow | ||||||
| i am 24 and i still hear it AAARRGGGHHHH it hurts after a while ^_^ | ||||||
| OH GOD MAKE IT STOP | ||||||
| I can hear it, and I'm 22. That makes me feel younger. Thank you! | ||||||
| my parents can hear it | ||||||
| Firstly, yes I (16 yrs. old) can hear it and it's really annoying. My father (46 yrs. old) who has worked around plenty of construction sites and equipment cannot hear it. I've gone to plenty of local punk rock concerts and always sit next to the speakers, etc. But I can still hear the high pitched tone. The ringtone idea is pure bullsh*t because there is no cellphone that has a decent enough speaker to output a sound that high-pitched even though my motherboard's(ASUS A8N-SLI Premium) onboard sound can. | ||||||
| I can't hear it..I'm an old fart at 31 I guess | ||||||
| I can hear it. | ||||||
| When its cranked and I turn it off, I feel my ears being relieved of pressure. | ||||||
| Fix the audio file. The distortion clipping is making it do a "WRAAAARRRRAAAARRAAARRRRAAARAAAA" sound. Instead of something like leaving the television on with no input. | ||||||
| First of all, it didn't work, my 48 and 46 year old parents could hear it. I am giving you a 5 because it pissed my pets off and because I am hoping that you edit it to make it a screamer. I thought I'd get that exorcist picture and "AHHHH!!!" | ||||||
| MY HEAD! ow i-i | ||||||
| Iuno, man. I hear it and I'm 21. Then again, I have theories behind it, so I'm going to give you a 3 for effort. | ||||||
| 25 here. I hear *something*, but it's not quite a tone. It sounds like radio interference, kind of. | ||||||
| This is f*cking cool,
And it works too, i can hear it but my co-workers don't :D | ||||||
| I hear it and so does my mom. She's 45.
| ||||||
| -1 for it being a requirement of the soundcard rather than the speakers to output the sound. =P | ||||||
| My friend has that ring tone, yeah I heard it, and it hurts, also, my speaker let out a WHOOMPH when I exited the page, lol. DOn't do this on top volume on a woofer boys and girls. | ||||||
| it's the same noise a muted television makes | ||||||
| OUCH! | ||||||
| I heard about this on NPR. Some guy in England is using it to drive teenagers away from just loitering around his store. His kid decided to use it on her cell phone, so they could message eachother in school w/o the teachers finding out. | ||||||
| i cant hear it and im 18 :( | ||||||
| actually does work, news article on it the other day. | ||||||
| "yeah right, it's just a screamer... *turns up volume >.> AGH MY EARS!!" | ||||||
| i think you killed my speakers | ||||||
| im 15, i cant hear anything. | ||||||
| it wouldnt be a good ringtone because it isnt that loud but anyway 4'd | ||||||
| just tried my other computer. f*ck THATS ANNOYING | ||||||
| and cocks | ||||||
| im 18, i can hear it
btw that hurts your eardrums, lol | ||||||
| I can just barely hear it... my ear hurts :( | ||||||
| 26, can BARELY hear it. | ||||||
| doesn't seem to bother my dogs, though. | ||||||
| i'm 28 and it's a very annoying noise. gratz. maybe the cutoff is 30. | ||||||
| I'm 21 and it drives me nuts, that's truely quite a noise!! | ||||||
| i believe this, my parents always leave the tv on the black screen (because they just turn off the satelite) and it makes this noise and i'm the only one who hears it so i turn it off! | ||||||
| I can hear it, but it makes my eyes water for some reason. And my dog is going nuts! | ||||||
| I'm 23 and can hear it just fine. Maybe this just proves that old people have a crappy sound system on their computer. | ||||||
| im still hearin it... | ||||||
| owie. > | ||||||
| Ow. | ||||||
| I can't hear it right now, but have heard it before... is this a different sound, or have I just gone def to high frequency sounds in the last 20 minutes? | ||||||
| it doesnt work | ||||||
| hahaa its 319am and my dog is barking like a litle bitch and probly waking up everyone int he neightborhood, that deserves a 5! | ||||||
| I hear it loud and clear and it hurts like a mother if you turn it up full blast. | ||||||
| its really hit and miss with different people, there's no definitive YOU CANT HEAR THIS IF YOU'RE OVER 20. | ||||||
| AAAAAAAAAAHHHH MY EARS | ||||||
| | ||||||
| u win the internet, good luck with snakes on a plane. | ||||||
| Its like walking past electrical boxes, I hear this noise, and my parents do not | ||||||
| My 67 year old grandma can hear it. | ||||||
| over 20 + can hear it = 1 | ||||||
| 18, can barely hear it. i can tell that there's some sort of a noise coming out of my speakers, but it's not like the ear-piercing tone everyone else is describing. if i turn up the volume, it's practically lost in background static. it's like that noise i hear when a television is on! | ||||||
| Didn't realize it was still loading sound, turned it up, almost deafened me. Ha. | ||||||
| f*ckin ow :C | ||||||
| FAILURE | ||||||
| I cant hear it and i'm 13 X_x | ||||||
| scratch that i turned up the volume to full blast and i heard a sonic boom type of noise ~_~ | ||||||
| I almost puked when I listened to this thing and moved... Then again I have a back brace pressing up against my chest so it may just be that :P
All in all My dog didnt seem to notice and I'm currently trying it out on my folks! Great find! | ||||||
| OUCH | ||||||
| I think it really just depends on who you are for this. I can hear it though. | ||||||
| but its wayyy to hard to hear! | ||||||
| ow.... | ||||||
| Helpful hint: don't raise the treble on your speakers while listening to this. | ||||||
| my 36 year old mom can hear it... just not when it's as quiet as I can hear it.... nice try man = | ||||||
| I'm 24 and I hear it. Who would honestly want this as a ring tone? Seriously...are you going to answer your phone in class if it rings? | ||||||
| 25 + can hear it. Thanks for making me feel like Superman. | ||||||
| Headache..... | ||||||
| Im 20, and I can hear it | ||||||
| |||||||
| INFAMOUSAEJKSDFSDF | ||||||
| ARHUARHUARHUAR
headache. | ||||||
| AUGH!!! THE SOUND!!! and for the ppl who dont beleive it, ur morons. | ||||||
| Ahhh... that gave me a headache... ow... | ||||||
| Wait... this almost made me crap myself, lol | ||||||
| MY EARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||||||
| Four of my five different teachers can hear above 18KHz. | ||||||
| why buy it when i can get it for free thx infamous ;) | ||||||
| Both my parents heard it and they're in their 40s.
This fails. | ||||||
| cute, but will never work... Im 22 and heard it. So did everyone else that is 35 and over. This myth has been busted! | ||||||
| HEARD IT | ||||||
| 22 years young ... and that is f*cking annoying ... and I'm still hearing it | ||||||
| wtf theres no sound | ||||||
| jk, your sh*t sucks | ||||||
| I'M 21 AND I HEARD IT YOU LOSE oh wait nevermind. | ||||||
| You ass! My ears are bleeding now!!! | ||||||
| My ears hurt. | ||||||
| my mommy hears it and shes... 48 or sumthin.. lolzz | ||||||
| OMFG...my f*ckin head hurts like a bitch...and Im only on my laptop....damit.. | ||||||
| i hear it. as soon as i left the sight for here, my earphones popped. | ||||||
| Only a retard won't believe this, its true, i can hear it and so can my dog but my parents can't | ||||||
| My cat was laying on my desk and I turned it all the way up...He jumped across the room. All I hear though is a low bass like sound. | ||||||
| I'm 19 and I don't hear it but it makes my head hurt. | ||||||
| i hear it 5'd | ||||||
| i can't find it on limewire, any links?
| ||||||
| That sound is annoyingly sharp and piercing but subtle enough just to stay at annoying. | ||||||
| You should have said "... under 20 years old OR have good hearing. | ||||||
| im 21 and I hear it | ||||||
| I'm an old man, and I can still hear it. | ||||||
| I am 29 and can hear this fine, it just is annoying. | ||||||
| I'm 20 and I can't hear it, but I think it's more likely because my speakers are kind of f*cked up. When I have my headphones plugged into them I get static and I can pick up a radio station somehow (loliminsane). I think that's drowning out the tone.
Either that or I'm old. | ||||||
| hah, thats sweet. I can only hear a bit of a buzz. | ||||||
