What Are the Strange Sounds Being Heard Worldwide? (Video)
Gather ^ | January 18, 2012 | Tom Rose

People all over the world are reporting they are hearing strange sounds and recording them on video. A compilation of these separate incidents has been uploaded to YouTube, and one fact is chillingly clear.

Whatever these unearthly noises are, they all sound similar, and are, so far, unexplained.

It's easy to say that these strange sounds, sometimes extremely loud, and other times seemingly far off, are the product of a hoax.

But their similarity to each other, and the fact they have been recorded in so many diverse areas of the world, leads one to believe that such a hoax is impossible to coordinate.

In the past, supernatural events, such as UFO sightings, have been largely visual in nature and reported as such. It's only in the last few weeks that this phenomenon of strange sounds has begun to be reported and discussed.

Commenters on the video, numbering in the thousands, are in three basic camps; those who scoff and explain it away as a hoax; those who attribute the weird noises to Hollywood movie soundtracks; and those who claim to have heard the noises themselves.

It is this latter group which is claiming that the strange sounds are similar to each other and therefore not a natural occurrence.

Here's the video:

What do you think? How can this new, spooky phenomenon be explained?

It seems to be coming from the North of us.

Why would you be participating in a hoax? What are you selling?

There is a long video at the end, starts about 11:25, labeled Kiev. I watched that one quite some time ago, that’s not from this January. I’ll search youtube.

I’ll go back and look, but it seemed all the recordings were taken well north of the equator. Oklahoma was the most southern instance I noted. The sound reminds me of ungreased metal on metal, like an old windmill or swinging gate, but gigantic.

It would be interesting to put a spectrum analyzer on those sounds. There is a lot of study that could be done, plotting the coordinates of the occurences would be a start. The problem there is we have no control of the reports, and may be missing many/most occurences.

People have dinged the vids for lack of comment, which is noteworthy. These are snippets, so there may have been comments early or late, and not during the snippets shown. People may be keeping quiet because they are recording sound. Why are people shooting video of nothing noteworthy visually over and over? That makes no sense either, unless they are recording sound, not the scene being shown.

I don’t think all the reports are hoaxes.

Here’s a crazy thought. Magnetic North has been moving very quickly for some time now. It has moved a surprising distance, making old maps almost unusable. Could part of the earth’s core be moving/grinding many miles under the surface?

Sound is an amazing thing. Being a wave, it is prone to all sorts of resonances. Some of these sound like wind driven resonance, and in some of the recordings you can hear the “regular” wind sounds as well. Some of them also sound like vehicular traffic off in the distance, modified by the terrain and the resonances setup therein. Thats what Occam tells me.

The vid from Kiev I mentioned above was posted on August 17, 2011, not Jan. 12, 2012.

Could be seismic induced.
Before some earthquakes, people have reported hearing odd noises.
Could be that there are some unique events happening that are too low in power to feel but are instead leting us hear them.
There are some earthquakes that are ‘creeping failures’ that produce very little shaking but release more energy than the usual variety.

Faint as all heck, but the above is a volcanic harmonic tremor for comparison.
I’m trying to find better audio for comparison.

I heard a high pitched sound yesterday inside my office. Looked out the window at the beautiful sight of a C-5 in a banked turn heading for a landing at the airport.

That's probably the sound of “Chevy sucks!” and not a natural phenomenon.

Is it an impact sound, or the sound the Titanic made scraping against the iceberg, or the sound a D9 makes piling up earth and stone?


Something high speed against some soggy hard object is the best I can describe it, but I went outside and there was nothing around to explain it.

What mass of the high speed or soggy hard would the sound suggest, how big each?
