These sounds are damn loud. Even with using a tornado siren, ( which I've heard plenty ) I doubt they could reproduce them.

I do find it interesting how once the daily mail reports it, the story goes out all over. Some videos go back to 2008. This didn't just happen last week or even a few months ago.

Not looking to start something but the word you're looking for is gullible.

Being not to bright is not a crime but when it is accompanied by malice and lies then those who post that way are fair game as I see it.

Snopes can't even go so far as to declare it a hoax.

Guess they're not bright enough to see it either.

But you could have just said so, from post #1, and left off all the nonsensical , uncalled for ad hominems.

And yet, you didn't. You spent more time demeaning and insulting me for the crime of posing the question as to what these sounds are than explaining how and why they're fake.

You've offered exactly nothing to support your claim, or explain the HOW and WHY they're fake.

" Funny looking bones in the ground ? Dinosaurs ? Why, that's just crazy talk! " is what amounts to the sum total of your dismissal of this story.

Being not 'TO' bright ?

Really?

The only one posting malice and lies here in this thread would be you.

Unless the strange sounds were recorded by someone you know and can trust in the real world beyond the internet, and I do mean trust in a really real person, not just any fake name on the internet, your curiosity is wasting your time. Read that article, again: www.snopes.com/photos/supernatural/strangesounds.asp

"Although some of the sounds captured in the video may have natural explanations, some of the other noises clearly originated from a common, artificial source: an iPhone.

At the 4:45 mark in the above-displayed video, a clip purportedly taken in Alberta, Canada, begins to play and (like all of the other clips in this video) features a strange and seemingly unexplainable noise. But this section of the video is unique in having a definitive explanation: YouTube user DangleSnipeCelly08 admitted that the clip she uploaded on 14 January 2012 was a hoax . . . "

I get that.

I really do.

Point is, there is no " consensus" , as science does not and never has worked that way.

Plus, I can see for my own eyes, over mere decades, that things aren't falling apart.

But that really is for another thread.

Or not. As this matter is closed.

And there it is folks. Rappy looks out the window and notices no change in the local weather. Damn and I mean damn what a fool. To debate someone like this and expect anything but foolishness in response means you are not much brighter yourself. I am running out of people down here I will even speak with.

There’s plenty of stupidity in the world, and much of it imagines itself wise. But in my experience people who declare confidently that “scientists don’t understand X” usually turn out to be wrong both about X and about what scientists understand. Often what they imagine to be a big conceptual or empirical failure of science is just a failure of their own comprehension. Do they comprehend at least that? No.

Two thumbs up for TWO.

You can overlay a sound track on a video, people do it all the time. (ETA: Or, as Snopes mentioned, you can play a soundtrack close to your smartphone mic to make it sound loud.)

In one video, there are about six people who appear to be scanning the sky. You and five of your friends could do that, and then overlay sound. In another video (the one with the child supposedly "frozen in terror") nobody appears to be running out of the houses to investigate. Nobody appears to rescue or comfort the child. I wonder if the "child" is a mannequin, and the sound (again) overlaid on a video. Other videos appear to be just shots of the sky, on which sound can (again) be easily overlaid.

Most of the noises sound orchestral - cellos, brass instruments (trombone anyone?), percussion section, possibly woodwinds, recorded in a echoing room or with an "echo" (delay) added electronically. It sounds like a soundtrack from something. But since several of the landscapes themselves don't appear to be able to generate echoes (You need large, flat, semi-vertical surfaces - like cliffs or mountains - to generate an echo.) and many of the landscapes are relatively flat and featureless, the sound quality doesn't fit the landscape. However, echoes DO make a noise sound "bigger", as our brain calculates the probable distance from the delay, and we assume that any sound that can be echoed over such a large distance must indeed be very loud.

This reminds me of the UFO pictures that were so common "back then", and crop circles. The ONE picture that nobody could explain ... was finally explained by the person who mocked it up: He tossed an aluminum pie dish in front of a piece of glass, such that the image reflected into the camera, as the camera was filming the sky and trees beyond.

Anyway, I'm convinced it's a prank. Just people funnin' ya.
