Hi brew I love your content but I have to point out the picture of multiple falling ears in 4:39 is rather disturbing the see not to mention slight risk of causing trypophobia , still love this video though.
PSA: If you wake up completely deaf on one side, go straight to an ENT. It is almost certainly sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and most walk-in clinics will assume your ear just has fluid on it and will send you home to go permanently deaf instead of giving you the steroid injections you need. Do it for my barely-functional right ear.
This happened one time a couple months ago i was scared but when I woke up it could barely hear i thought it might've been bc of my noise cancelling headphones but then my hearing came back maybe 20 mins later slowly hasn't happened since
I had very poor hearing but then suddenly when I was grade 8 i heard a *pop* and suddenly I feel a sense of relief and everything sounds so clear and less muffled
I would guess you had liquid in your ear for several years. When I have a cold and snort, then I unwillingly press liquid in my ears , which goes away after I feel healthy.
The thing is closing the nose and applying pressure with lungs opens the ear. It can also happen due to opening of jaw which results in opening of eat with pop sound(can be heard only by the doer cuz it's internal). I can do it by opening jaw since 6 yrs old😅
I'm 40 and could hear the mosquito perfectly. I've been tested in hearing studies at uni several times and was told my hearing was very good for my age. Very interesting content as always. Keep up the excellent work!
My brother has the exact opposite frequency issue and often has trouble or can't hear my sister in law or nieces but has no problem hearing deeper voices.
I hear it, and it would be really annoying after a minute or so (it sounds like when a firework explode right next to you and you only ear a buzzing and nothing else)
I know what loosing hearing in one ear is like. I once had a really bad ear infection in one ear and I could barely hear on that side. You'd be surprised how much we usually rely on stereo sound
Same, I was working on a bicycle and the rear tire exploded 6 inches from my left ear. It was one of those really skinny tired racing bikes and the tires are pumped to 90psi minimum. I had little to no hearing in my left ear for nearly two months, and it took half a year for it to slowly come back. I have it all back, mostly, but I also have permanent tinnitus now.
@@christophermorin9036 Oh tinnitus is terribad. The absolute worst. It's completely maddening and there'll be times you'll confuse the ringing in your head with real sounds like; power transformers, running plumbing, the neighbors washing machine in the middle of the night, etc. etc...

I've resorted to wearing wax earplugs pretty much 24/7, lately._ _Whoops! This became a rant._
@@FroggyMosh YESSSS omgggg I was diagnosed with tinnitus in my left ear this year and omfg it’s been driving me insane. I have my days where I can almost completely ignore it but when it’s time for me to go to sleep it takes me about 2-3 hours. And my favorite sleeping position is on my left side so it’s been a nightmareeee trying to sleep but sometimes I just push through it cause I’m too comfortable, I just hope with all the advancements with technology and medicine they’ll find a ‘cure’ but I use that term loosely😭
I've always had sensitivity to high freq sounds. When I was little my parents thought I was weird because I could hear all the CRT Tv's in the house "whistling" even when the volume was turned all the way down. Even now at almost 40 y/o that "Mosquito" device they featured in the video hurt my brain.
Lol yep. I remember whenever my Grand Father forgot to turn off the CRT TV i could hear it across the hallway, going in the kitchen then into the living room. Alway went to turn it off when i was hearing it. Not only was it annoying but a waste of electricity.
@kaza12345678 For sure! It’s from Game of Thrones (S7 I believe) before Daenerys tries to conquer Westeros and asks for Olenna Tyrell’s advice and Olenna tells Daenerys everyone is a sheep but Daenerys is a dragon so she should be a dragon. Basically saying that she’s a natural leader and should listen to her own instincts instead of yes men.
My neighbors installed a squirrel repellant device in their backyard and were very surprised when we asked about it the next day because both my dad and I could hear the dammed mosquito tone in our own house
I used to be able to hear a dog whistle, only until last year after a bad illness. I don't mind it tho. Dog whistles are such an annoying high pitch sound. I liked how the sounds were changing at certain points in the video. I could tell so that's good. The ending is so relatable 😂
@@ayuchanayuko Does that second one refer to that quiet, high-pitch sound TVs mak? I've always been able to tell when a TV is on even if it's muted because they still seem to make a sound.
I’m hard of hearing since I was a little girl. I always have to go to my doctor at least once a month. I do hearing tests only once a year to see if anything changed. My doctor told me that I don’t hear low sounds so well. That means I struggle to hear male voices. I didn’t know that until he told me that and it all made sense. I’m happy to see that some people on this platform do these kind of videos. It helps me a lot because I don’t feel so alone anymore.
This is crazy.. I was recently hospitalized for systemic lupus (an autoimmune disease), and had a crazy amount going on with me. One of the weird, unexplained side effects, was that in my hospital bed I could hear someone gently typing and clicking on a computer very far away as if it was right under my pillow. it eventually went away, but god it drove me crazy! I had no idea how it was possible, this is really interesting!
People with APD experience the same thing/something very similar but throughout their entire life, I'd know because I have it as a comorbidity with autism. It's insane. Someone will be right in my face talking to me and I'll have to ask them to repeat multiple times, but in a loud room I'll be driven insane by EVERY NOISE because it's all I can hear. It's awful.
I remember as a kid that my mom took me to the local clinic because I stopped responding when she would call me upstairs (my room was in the basement), and I "didn't hear" her so much she got worried. I just got really, really good at ignoring her cause she called me ALL THE TIME for errands or whatnot.... got tired of it. My hearing was just fine, lol
So in other words you have no respect for one of the people keeping you fed, clothed, and access to the internet. Not to mention put up with your deadweight.
Well a teacher in high school "muted" one of my classmates way before these apps were a thing Basically she was that classmate saying lots of bullsh1t so loudly that martians couldn't sleep because of her screams and wasting time rather than pay attention so the only 2 times in 3 years she actually gave a right answer in class the teacher didn't hear her, and i could tell he was being honest and not just ignoring her on purpose or something like that
I've been trying a lot harder to be more conscious of my hearing over the past couple years. If I don't focus on a conversation, I can miss hearing something being said directly to me. Or if there's other conversations happening at normal volume I'll miss things more often than I used to.
I’ve been able to hear the mosquito noise for 28 years…. It always was a joke to myself that I was still young……… I couldn’t hear it in this video…….. It’s happened, I’ve caught the OLD….. It’s only a matter of time now.
@@debraerts9171 I am using speakers and had to crank the volume down. that was excessively loud I can definitely see how someone could "feel" it without being able to hear it
I have APD (auditory processing disorder) and it's sort of like this and selective hearing, I can't always hear people's voices and what they're saying but I always seem to hear the background noise and noises unnecessarily far away a lot more, and it is kind of a super power but not when I really have to pay attention to someone, also the reason I didn't have many friends or did that well in school but now I'm 20 and I've learned to deal with it, practice and can listen to people a lot better.
I have ADHD but I suspect I could possibly have APD. I can hear sounds very well but conversations become a huge problem when there’s background noise, many words sound similar, and I sometimes struggle locating sounds.
One of my cats has low frequency hearing loss. Cats can't hear low frequency stuff as well as humans anyway. She's always the last cat to realize when someone's come in because she can't hear the door. She also can't hear men's voices and absolutely flips out when she (or they) walk in a room and she sees them (no men live with us and she's afraid of strangers.) But she can hear high pitched stuff perfectly. Sometimes I wish she didn't, lol. Like if I'm trying to put a cat toy away and trying to be as quiet as possible so she doesn't hear and want to play, she always hears and is right there asking to play.
I think this video gave me something to go to my doctor about and possibly what's been plaguing my family for the last few generations (that I know of, but since it's just "what happens to us" most of us kind of just "accepted our fate" despite going to specialists and doing everything we can to avoid triggers that cause our ears to feel full, etc. Even if it's not it, hopefully, I can be helpful, esp since my own hearing seems to be getting worse).
@@aleksandrakowalczyk6043 Hi there! I see an ENT speicalist every few months now to get my ears professionally cleaned. Some of my problems causing me not to hear (ear wax, liquid, etc), are caused because I have VERY small ear canals, plus other stuff. Bassically my ears can't drain by themselves causing fluid, etc to just never go away. So far the cleanings are working better than without them, but I still get some fluid build up, etc and we're figuring out what's happening and how to balance it. I'm also taking a daily antiistimine to help with drying out my ears, etc and control allergies that make it worse. I'm also working with my ENT specialist to see an allergist (I have other issues that may or may not be related or just making it worse, but I'm working with my care team to see if I also have an autoimmune disorder or another genetic disorder which might be affecting it. I have a lot of other medical stuff that prompted them to take a closer look - like I also have fibromyalgia, jaw* issues, etc which also runs in my family with the some of the same people with hearing/ear problems). It'll probably take time to get a full picture 😊
I have tinnitus and it affects my upper range of hearing. I can still hear things in the 15-20k range, but alot of the time it just blends into it. Like that mosquito whistle, couldn't hear it because it blended in, but during my last hearing test I passed perfectly.
Same. The mosquito ring tone drove me insane in high school, but I now basically always have it in one ear. Makes it hard to distinguish when I'm actually hearing another super high pitch and when it's just my tinnitus being a little more noticeable than usual.
people may be a little confused as to how someone can hear -30db. Audiograms are measured in dBHL (decabel hearing level) which is calibrated slightly differently, with 0dbhl at what was considered "normal healthy hearing for an average person at peak". This is a really good video for explaining hearing loss!
Exactly this! It's often glossed over that the decibel is a *relative* unit. If one doesn't state how the scale is normalized, the unit doesn't communicate anything of value. It could be -30dBSPL (sound pressure level), -30dBHL (hearing level), or -30dB relative to a giant PA system blasting at max volume (the speaker at max would be 0). As a result, -30dB could mean anything from "so quiet you can't hear it" to "so loud it will rupture your eardrums."
I understand that! I was so confused when a standard hearing test came back with one value in negative db. The audiologist was kind and explained 0 db as the expected hearing threshold for humans or baseline. There are "quieter" sounds.
I often find it difficult to hear people when they're close me when they speak on a low tone but strange enough I often hear sounds from afar that some people can't hear. What you explained is informative.
I have an auditory processing issue. I can hear random small sounds, but if I’m not looking at you while you talk, I won’t hear or process what your saying.
I have a similar issue, so I can’t listen to audiobooks or talk radio. I do well with song lyrics but regular speech without visual cues is challenging. Thank goodness for captions on tv.
My husband and I - both have Ménière’s. Mine is a milder form (as long as I eat a lower sodium diet/almost no caffeine), whereas my husband has the severe form. He mentions lower sodium diet in this video, yet caffeine is a big problem too. Out to eat one day and the waitress gave a regular cup of coffee to my husband, instead of decaffeinated. He drank only about 1/4 cup and he knew an attack was coming: fullness in his ear, dizziness, nausea. Two of the staff helped him to the car but before sitting down, he started vomiting and sweating profusely. He must take a pill every day ,to keep that ear draining correctly.
I'm thirty-six, and while I couldn't hear the Mosquito per se, I could hear quite clearly that the main audio sounded suppressed and something during that time was making my head feel weird and my skin crawl.
I think I am suffering from one of these conditions, went to a specialist but it didn't help me much... imma talk about this with my doctor! thanks for this good quality of videos you keep giving us ! ♥
I'm so glad to be wearing my stereo headphones during this episode! Wonderful job editing the audio to really demonstrate pitches and experiential sound
When the Mosquito rang and when the Audio suddenly went silent when talking about Cochlear Hydrops were the very first time Brew managed to give a jumpscare
My mom has only partial hearing in one ear, completely deaf in the other. Whenever she needs to look for her phone or do something that requires spatial hearing, she gets one of us to listen for it. As a result, both me & my brother have learned to detect the location of sounds very well 😅
I'm not exactly "young", but yeah I could hear the mosquito. My senses of smell and hearing are a bit overly sensitive and trust me, it's far more of a hinderance than it is useful.
i remember there were mosquito units at the cinema and the walmart where I grew up in the 90s. They were horrible! Another one I know of is at a train station, which is so painful because as a passenger, you have to walk through a long hallway with this awful sound. Glad I dont live in that area anymore
I can slightly hear The Mosquito and I'm 65. I inherited my grandfather's unusually sharp hearing. When I was a little kid, I could hear bat radar. Thank God I don't hear that anymore
Kids at my daughter's school recorded the mosquito tone and used it as a rxt alert and ring tone that the teachers couldn't hear. I was really impressed by their creative thinking.
definitely do NOT need for the mosquito tone if you can hear that frequency. That was WAY too loud on my speakers :( that said some cheaper speakers cut off at a lower range so some people might only be able to hear it on headphones if they are higher quality then the speakers edit: I typed this up right after the mosquito tone that was too loud. I agree with headphones for the rest of the video
So I have a lot of trouble hearing low noises. I can feel vibrations of base in some speakers but the lower sections of, like, base guitars, I cannot hear. Some deeper voices I can’t hear at all. Those are rare, but I used to have to change teachers in high school because of it. I can hear super high and faint noises as well. I have to have a white noise machine to sleep to drown it all out because the sound of electricity, and bugs, and the house settling can get so loud it’s overwhelming. I even have my own custom set of ear plugs that I wear most of the time. Im super sensitive about echos and irregular noises. The shower with all the noise can be hard sometimes too. It has been a superpower at times though. I’ve rescued dozens of stray kittens from all sorts of places when no one else could find them. I’ve even practiced with judging the directions sounds are coming from. I can hear when some appliances or devices run out of battery because they stop making their sound. I can even hear emergency sirens and alarms from almost impossible distances. But they have to be high noises. The lowest note on a standard 72 key piano is close to the lowest I can hear, though it starts to fade about an octave above that. The "texture"of a sound has a lot to do with it too. Airy and smooth sounds like a flute are good, but scratchy smooth sounds like a violin are a bit too much. Oboes are the best though. Double Bases don’t make a noise to me. Base brass like Tubas make a kind of shuddery noise, but I don’t hear a note or anything. Some of them if they’re loud sound like they have layers, and I can only hear the top ones, even though I know they’re base instruments. Some dogs I can’t really hear when they bark. Movies that have rumbley low noises I can feel through the ground and the seat, but it’s mostly silent… people ask a lot of questions and I’m happy to share, because sometimes I’ll find out another noise that I’m missing, but tell them one they’re missing.
Sometimes when I visit the mall, I will hear a high pitch ringing in the background. I once asked my mom about it, but she didn’t hear anything! Now I know that I’m not hearing things and that the high pitch sound actually exists in malls! Incredible
When me and my brother were kids, our parents were addicted to competitive Tetris/Dr. Mario. This was when there was no such thing as LCDs tvs. Just CRTs Sleeping with a high pitched whine for the entire night was a nightmare. Would ask them to stop playing because it was so loud and they would be so confused because it was muted
I know what you mean. I could tell my family when they turned the tv on or off while in another room. As an adult I could still hear CRTs, but I haven't been around any for a while and I'm not sure if I've lost that ability or not.
I'm 32 and I still can hear the mosquito noise thing.... I can hear the frequencies of tv sets, the frequency bats talk at, the frequency those annoying Toyota Prius' give off... I have pretty good hearing.
i sometimes "hear" sounds that I like that are stuck in my mind, i can sometimes put on the sounds that are in my mind but it's a bit harder too turn them off
I'm in my 30s... that mosquito was just at the border of my hearing, but that made it all the more annoying because I couldn't quite place the rather "coil-whine"-like noise for a moment and was looking around my room for the source. Guess my time at metal festivals hasn't (yet) damaged my hearing too badly. Which is also why I noticed something "off" with the audio in this video, namely the shifting frequency at several point, I assume that this was done on purpose but it's very distracting.
In geometry, the rhombicosidodecahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of thirteen convex isogonal nonprismatic solids constructed of two or more types of regular polygon faces. It has 20 regular triangular faces, 30 square faces, 12 regular pentagonal faces, 60 vertices, and 120 edges.
Oh my god, I’m not crazy. Well, I am, but as far as my odd hearing goes, I’m not. I can hear frequencies that are low and also so high off the charts that is nuts. I can hear sounds from extremely long distances. I can hear every electric device in this house that it gives me a headache. But I struggle hearing the average pitch that most people speak in. Especially in my left ear. I’m also idiosyncratic, so I tend to hear more of my surroundings anyways. But I get chewed out for hearing a scream god knows how many blocks away, but I can’t hear the person I’m talking to without seeing their lips. Thank you for this!
I was wondering if this episode would touch on Auitory Processing Disorder, and it sounds like at least the first case could have been a form of it? A friend of mine was diagnosed in college, to which her symptoms were that she had FANTASTIC hearing... but couldn't make out what you were saying to her face, and digital audio was almost impossible to make out (except she was fine with music and movies- it was more phones that she couldn't process).
@@anonymousartist8751 Aye, watching through the whole episode I can see how it's not related to the topic that was trying to be focused on, and was left out.
It's probably because she has the inability to tune or ignore sounds outside a conversation like say you're on a school bus and your friend is talking to you but you can't listen to them because all you can pay attention to is the loud noises the kids behind you are making or the sound of the wheels on the bus move or the sound of the birds outside and so on. Also I think the reason why your friend can't process talking on the phone is because she can probably only hear the static sound when someone is talking to her especially on a long distance call.
I think I have some of this. I find it kind of hard to understand speech, especially men. I can do it but it's not that easy, it's like trying to understand foreign language. It requires a lot of focus. However I can hear things like the electronic mouse repellents that are supposed to be at a frequency out of the range of human hearing. They are really annoying. My hearing is also really sensitive - I get strangely irritated by sounds like rain dropping against metal windowsill for example and I can hear TV two floors below me. But I constantly tell people to lower the radio volume if its playing in the same room because I can't hear the words in songs when they are played loud, not to mention - the loud, messed up noise is draining me and causing anxiety.
I have hyperacusis *and* auditory processing disorder, so not only are sounds at certain high pitches (e.g. flutes or violins playing, kittens meowing, that tinny noise in the background of low-quality sound recordings) physically painful for me, I have no idea what you just said. I literally hear more clearly when I'm reading captions.
First time i heard about the mosquito thing was when one of my older teachers caught a student using it for their text notifications. The teacher explained that students use it to use their phones without teachers knowing due to not being able to hear it due to old age. Needless to say the student panicked when they got caught.
I thought I couldn't hear the buzz at all, but then I pulled my phone speaker close to my ear and it felt like a small sewing needle made of sound was piercing my eardrum, and it was actually painful. That is the most accurate description I could think of. What gives?! The wife knows my hearing is wonky and a doctor once told me I had "blown out a range", likely due to loud music as a kid.
great video! I have Menier's and I'm glad to see more info on it becoming more mainstream. I just got new earbuds (jabra 7) and when setting them up it played a hearing test on each earbud to customize the sound. It's been amazing but was sad to realize that I've lost more hearing.
This reminds me of an old flipnote I found with my DSi. Essentially, Brendan tried to tease May by saying that he can’t hear women. (Brendan and May are the protagonists of Pokemon’s 3rd generation games.)
I've been living with Meniere's for about 35 years and I've never heard it explained this well before I honestly had trouble explaining it in the past thank God for the Lahey clinic in Massachusetts
I passed my hearing test at 100% but the constant ringing in my ears is almost the same as the sounds they played. I just guessed and hoped for the best .
I have the exact opposite of this I can’t hear female voices/ children or high pitched noises. I don’t hear the beginning/ending of sentences, and consonants are easily missed especially if there any background noise. Hearing aids help to a certain extent but even then it doesn’t always help.
I have tinnitus that is thought to induced by adjustments of my SSRI medication dose. High pitched Ringing or whine intensifies for a couple of days and then after a week or so it disappears completely or is barely noticeable. Has a hearing test and examination and have perfect hearing. It's fascinating to think it's almost like hearing the changing in the way your brain is firing or perceiving signals. It is trippy how complex brains are.
I think I had a temporary case of this after a severe concussion. During my recovery everything seemed to be significantly louder. At night I would be woken up whenever one of my parents (on the opposite side of the house) went to use the bathroom. I also had to wear construction site style headphones to go anywhere outside the house without getting a terrible headache.
when you played the mosquito tone, I certainly heard it that was waaaayyyy too loud, what frequency was that? it seemed quite a bit lower pitch than a crt which is at the edge of my hearing in my mid 20's(I don't hang out at places that play loud music/other noise, CRT because I have one for retro gaming and parents still have one when I'm at their house). When I was a kid I could tell when my brother was up if I heard the crt whine, the tv might be on mute at 6 am but you can't stop the whining :)
I was diagnosed with meniere’s years ago, but now I know it’s most likely cochlear hydrops because I don’t experience vertigo and my hearing is often perfect. It changes based on diet and allergies. When I do lose it, it’s higher frequencies in one ear. I can still hear everyone, but their voices are much deeper to the point of being unrecognizable.
“The mosquito sound has been playing for the last couple seconds, can you hear it?” No… but I felt it. I could tell when it started before he said anything, and it felt bizarre. Like a kind of pressure.

I have my days where I can almost completely ignore it but when it’s time for me to go to sleep it takes me about 2-3 hours. And my favorite sleeping position is on my left side so it’s been a nightmareeee trying to sleep but sometimes I just push through it cause I’m too comfortable, I just hope with all the advancements with technology and medicine they’ll find a ‘cure’ but I use that term loosely😭
I've always had sensitivity to high freq sounds. When I was little my parents thought I was weird because I could hear all the CRT Tv's in the house "whistling" even when the volume was turned all the way down. Even now at almost 40 y/o that "Mosquito" device they featured in the video hurt my brain.
god same i had to turn off tvs at night due to it also it gave me a headache and nausea
i can't hear Mosquito at all, probably never could due to my hearing loss i always had.
I didn’t hear it. But it hurt my ears. What does that mean?😅
Lol yep. I remember whenever my Grand Father forgot to turn off the CRT TV i could hear it across the hallway, going in the kitchen then into the living room. Alway went to turn it off when i was hearing it. Not only was it annoying but a waste of electricity.
I guess you could say selective hearing at its finest.

@kaza12345678 For sure! It’s from Game of Thrones (S7 I believe) before Daenerys tries to conquer Westeros and asks for Olenna Tyrell’s advice and Olenna tells Daenerys everyone is a sheep but Daenerys is a dragon so she should be a dragon. Basically saying that she’s a natural leader and should listen to her own instincts instead of yes men.

I used to be able to hear a dog whistle, only until last year after a bad illness. I don't mind it tho. Dog whistles are such an annoying high pitch sound.
I liked how the sounds were changing at certain points in the video. I could tell so that's good.

@@ayuchanayuko Does that second one refer to that quiet, high-pitch sound TVs mak? I've always been able to tell when a TV is on even if it's muted because they still seem to make a sound.
I’m hard of hearing since I was a little girl. I always have to go to my doctor at least once a month. I do hearing tests only once a year to see if anything changed. My doctor told me that I don’t hear low sounds so well. That means I struggle to hear male voices. I didn’t know that until he told me that and it all made sense. I’m happy to see that some people on this platform do these kind of videos. It helps me a lot because I don’t feel so alone anymore.
This is crazy.. I was recently hospitalized for systemic lupus (an autoimmune disease), and had a crazy amount going on with me. One of the weird, unexplained side effects, was that in my hospital bed I could hear someone gently typing and clicking on a computer very far away as if it was right under my pillow. it eventually went away, but god it drove me crazy! I had no idea how it was possible, this is really interesting!
I also hear typing and mouse clicking sometimes when it's quiet.
Are you sureee? It’s never lupus! (If you get that reference, I adore you instantly)

People with APD experience the same thing/something very similar but throughout their entire life, I'd know because I have it as a comorbidity with autism. It's insane. Someone will be right in my face talking to me and I'll have to ask them to repeat multiple times, but in a loud room I'll be driven insane by EVERY NOISE because it's all I can hear. It's awful.

I just got really, really good at ignoring her cause she called me ALL THE TIME for errands or whatnot.... got tired of it. My hearing was just fine, lol

Well a teacher in high school "muted" one of my classmates way before these apps were a thing
Basically she was that classmate saying lots of bullsh1t so loudly that martians couldn't sleep because of her screams and wasting time rather than pay attention so the only 2 times in 3 years she actually gave a right answer in class the teacher didn't hear her, and i could tell he was being honest and not just ignoring her on purpose or something like that
I've been trying a lot harder to be more conscious of my hearing over the past couple years. If I don't focus on a conversation, I can miss hearing something being said directly to me. Or if there's other conversations happening at normal volume I'll miss things more often than I used to.
I’ve been able to hear the mosquito noise for 28 years…. It always was a joke to myself that I was still young……… I couldn’t hear it in this video…….. It’s happened, I’ve caught the OLD….. It’s only a matter of time now.
Chances are it's above your phone/computer speakers frequency. I also didn't hear a thing but I am sensitive to high frequency sounds.
yeah I'm 26 and couldn't hear it with my phone speakers, as soon as I put headphones on my ears died.

I have APD (auditory processing disorder) and it's sort of like this and selective hearing, I can't always hear people's voices and what they're saying but I always seem to hear the background noise and noises unnecessarily far away a lot more, and it is kind of a super power but not when I really have to pay attention to someone, also the reason I didn't have many friends or did that well in school but now I'm 20 and I've learned to deal with it, practice and can listen to people a lot better.
I have ADHD but I suspect I could possibly have APD. I can hear sounds very well but conversations become a huge problem when there’s background noise, many words sound similar, and I sometimes struggle locating sounds.
I like how this discusses its normal to other people so i know its authentic
One of my cats has low frequency hearing loss. Cats can't hear low frequency stuff as well as humans anyway. She's always the last cat to realize when someone's come in because she can't hear the door. She also can't hear men's voices and absolutely flips out when she (or they) walk in a room and she sees them (no men live with us and she's afraid of strangers.) But she can hear high pitched stuff perfectly. Sometimes I wish she didn't, lol. Like if I'm trying to put a cat toy away and trying to be as quiet as possible so she doesn't hear and want to play, she always hears and is right there asking to play.
I think this video gave me something to go to my doctor about and possibly what's been plaguing my family for the last few generations (that I know of, but since it's just "what happens to us" most of us kind of just "accepted our fate" despite going to specialists and doing everything we can to avoid triggers that cause our ears to feel full, etc. Even if it's not it, hopefully, I can be helpful, esp since my own hearing seems to be getting worse).
hey, any updates that you'd like to share?
Update?
@@aleksandrakowalczyk6043 Hi there! I see an ENT speicalist every few months now to get my ears professionally cleaned. Some of my problems causing me not to hear (ear wax, liquid, etc), are caused because I have VERY small ear canals, plus other stuff. Bassically my ears can't drain by themselves causing fluid, etc to just never go away. So far the cleanings are working better than without them, but I still get some fluid build up, etc and we're figuring out what's happening and how to balance it. I'm also taking a daily antiistimine to help with drying out my ears, etc and control allergies that make it worse. I'm also working with my ENT specialist to see an allergist (I have other issues that may or may not be related or just making it worse, but I'm working with my care team to see if I also have an autoimmune disorder or another genetic disorder which might be affecting it. I have a lot of other medical stuff that prompted them to take a closer look - like I also have fibromyalgia, jaw* issues, etc which also runs in my family with the some of the same people with hearing/ear problems).
It'll probably take time to get a full picture 😊
I have tinnitus and it affects my upper range of hearing. I can still hear things in the 15-20k range, but alot of the time it just blends into it. Like that mosquito whistle, couldn't hear it because it blended in, but during my last hearing test I passed perfectly.
Same. The mosquito ring tone drove me insane in high school, but I now basically always have it in one ear. Makes it hard to distinguish when I'm actually hearing another super high pitch and when it's just my tinnitus being a little more noticeable than usual.
Omg, that's exactly my case. When they were checking it for me I got so confused because my tinnitus masked some of the frequencies.
I literally had to do a double take to hear it. Once I focused on it I could hear it through my tinnitus.
My tinnitus is at around the 6.5kHz to 7kHz range, I still can hear up to 18.5kHz. Beyond that, I just feel a weird feeling on my ears
same lol
I'd love to see a video about tinnitus without hearing loss, I understand that's one of the most mysterious hearing conditions
people may be a little confused as to how someone can hear -30db. Audiograms are measured in dBHL (decabel hearing level) which is calibrated slightly differently, with 0dbhl at what was considered "normal healthy hearing for an average person at peak".
This is a really good video for explaining hearing loss!
Exactly this! It's often glossed over that the decibel is a *relative* unit. If one doesn't state how the scale is normalized, the unit doesn't communicate anything of value. It could be -30dBSPL (sound pressure level), -30dBHL (hearing level), or -30dB relative to a giant PA system blasting at max volume (the speaker at max would be 0). As a result, -30dB could mean anything from "so quiet you can't hear it" to "so loud it will rupture your eardrums."
I understand that! I was so confused when a standard hearing test came back with one value in negative db. The audiologist was kind and explained 0 db as the expected hearing threshold for humans or baseline. There are "quieter" sounds.
I often find it difficult to hear people when they're close me when they speak on a low tone but strange enough I often hear sounds from afar that some people can't hear. What you explained is informative.
I have an auditory processing issue. I can hear random small sounds, but if I’m not looking at you while you talk, I won’t hear or process what your saying.
I have a similar issue, so I can’t listen to audiobooks or talk radio. I do well with song lyrics but regular speech without visual cues is challenging. Thank goodness for captions on tv.
dude me too im practicly deaf if im not looking at someone talking but weirdly i can tell where random noises come from really well

I'm 70 and thought I heard well but now you've got me worried.
My husband and I - both have Ménière’s. Mine is a milder form (as long as I eat a lower sodium diet/almost no caffeine), whereas my husband has the severe form. He mentions lower sodium diet in this video, yet caffeine is a big problem too. Out to eat one day and the waitress gave a regular cup of coffee to my husband, instead of decaffeinated. He drank only about 1/4 cup and he knew an attack was coming: fullness in his ear, dizziness, nausea. Two of the staff helped him to the car but before sitting down, he started vomiting and sweating profusely. He must take a pill every day ,to keep that ear draining correctly.
What medication does he take for meniere’s if you don’t mind me asking?
@@littlemiharu : HCTZ (hydroclorothiazide) pills, every day.
hope the restaurant apologised for giving caffinated coffe when you asked for decaf! that's just irresponsible of them.
What's annoying? Misophonia and increased hearing of sounds in frequency that droves you mad...
I'm thirty-six, and while I couldn't hear the Mosquito per se, I could hear quite clearly that the main audio sounded suppressed and something during that time was making my head feel weird and my skin crawl.
I think I am suffering from one of these conditions, went to a specialist but it didn't help me much... imma talk about this with my doctor! thanks for this good quality of videos you keep giving us ! ♥
get checked for auditory processing disorder. it's more common and can explain some of what's in the video.
I'm so glad to be wearing my stereo headphones during this episode! Wonderful job editing the audio to really demonstrate pitches and experiential sound
When the Mosquito rang and when the Audio suddenly went silent when talking about Cochlear Hydrops were the very first time Brew managed to give a jumpscare
My mom has only partial hearing in one ear, completely deaf in the other.
Whenever she needs to look for her phone or do something that requires spatial hearing, she gets one of us to listen for it.
As a result, both me & my brother have learned to detect the location of sounds very well 😅
I'm not exactly "young", but yeah I could hear the mosquito. My senses of smell and hearing are a bit overly sensitive and trust me, it's far more of a hinderance than it is useful.
Especially the static from a phone charging or some random electronic's buzz, it gets annoying
I’m a teen and I couldn’t
I couldn’t hear any of the really high sounds and I am only 25.
I heard it and I'm 32.
I'm not sure how long the mosquito played, I registered around one second of it and now I'm very unhappy. 😫
i remember there were mosquito units at the cinema and the walmart where I grew up in the 90s. They were horrible! Another one I know of is at a train station, which is so painful because as a passenger, you have to walk through a long hallway with this awful sound. Glad I dont live in that area anymore
I'm in my 30s and still hear that mosquito sound. It hurts! Wasn't expecting that. Good episode though!
Same.
I'm 27, still hearing that Mosquito, thanks Brew!
Can vouch for the deafness in the one ear. Had it all my life but it sucks all the same. I can’t locate sounds in my job where it’s highly important
It seems your job requires hearing ability beyond what's adequate for your situation.

And here I thought I'm bad coz I'm limited to 13-16k depending on ambient noise
Kids at my daughter's school recorded the mosquito tone and used it as a rxt alert and ring tone that the teachers couldn't hear. I was really impressed by their creative thinking.
Definitely need to use headphones to fully enjoy the sound effects in this video. Love the video like usual ♥️
definitely do NOT need for the mosquito tone if you can hear that frequency. That was WAY too loud on my speakers :( that said some cheaper speakers cut off at a lower range so some people might only be able to hear it on headphones if they are higher quality then the speakers
edit: I typed this up right after the mosquito tone that was too loud. I agree with headphones for the rest of the video
@@qazwer001 yeah it's a really high pitch thingy and tbh not as bad as acrual mosquito
Listening to this with headphones and hearing the shifts when brew does examples is kinda cool
So I have a lot of trouble hearing low noises. I can feel vibrations of base in some speakers but the lower sections of, like, base guitars, I cannot hear. Some deeper voices I can’t hear at all. Those are rare, but I used to have to change teachers in high school because of it.
I can hear super high and faint noises as well. I have to have a white noise machine to sleep to drown it all out because the sound of electricity, and bugs, and the house settling can get so loud it’s overwhelming. I even have my own custom set of ear plugs that I wear most of the time.
Im super sensitive about echos and irregular noises. The shower with all the noise can be hard sometimes too.
It has been a superpower at times though. I’ve rescued dozens of stray kittens from all sorts of places when no one else could find them. I’ve even practiced with judging the directions sounds are coming from. I can hear when some appliances or devices run out of battery because they stop making their sound. I can even hear emergency sirens and alarms from almost impossible distances. But they have to be high noises.
The lowest note on a standard 72 key piano is close to the lowest I can hear, though it starts to fade about an octave above that. The "texture"of a sound has a lot to do with it too. Airy and smooth sounds like a flute are good, but scratchy smooth sounds like a violin are a bit too much. Oboes are the best though. Double Bases don’t make a noise to me. Base brass like Tubas make a kind of shuddery noise, but I don’t hear a note or anything. Some of them if they’re loud sound like they have layers, and I can only hear the top ones, even though I know they’re base instruments. Some dogs I can’t really hear when they bark. Movies that have rumbley low noises I can feel through the ground and the seat, but it’s mostly silent… people ask a lot of questions and I’m happy to share, because sometimes I’ll find out another noise that I’m missing, but tell them one they’re missing.
ah another person who can hear devices running lol
Sometimes when I visit the mall, I will hear a high pitch ringing in the background. I once asked my mom about it, but she didn’t hear anything! Now I know that I’m not hearing things and that the high pitch sound actually exists in malls! Incredible
When me and my brother were kids, our parents were addicted to competitive Tetris/Dr. Mario. This was when there was no such thing as LCDs tvs. Just CRTs
Sleeping with a high pitched whine for the entire night was a nightmare. Would ask them to stop playing because it was so loud and they would be so confused because it was muted
I know what you mean. I could tell my family when they turned the tv on or off while in another room.
As an adult I could still hear CRTs, but I haven't been around any for a while and I'm not sure if I've lost that ability or not.

I'm 32 and I still can hear the mosquito noise thing.... I can hear the frequencies of tv sets, the frequency bats talk at, the frequency those annoying Toyota Prius' give off... I have pretty good hearing.
i sometimes "hear" sounds that I like that are stuck in my mind, i can sometimes put on the sounds that are in my mind but it's a bit harder too turn them off
I'm in my 30s... that mosquito was just at the border of my hearing, but that made it all the more annoying because I couldn't quite place the rather "coil-whine"-like noise for a moment and was looking around my room for the source.
Guess my time at metal festivals hasn't (yet) damaged my hearing too badly. Which is also why I noticed something "off" with the audio in this video, namely the shifting frequency at several point, I assume that this was done on purpose but it's very distracting.
@Hunky It can also depend on your speakers. Some speakers don't pick it up.
I'm not sure if Bluetooth headphones can pick it up either, as the audio is compressed when it is sent to the headphones.
the 'mosquito' might just be one of the most inhumane creations ever, I feel like that broke me ears

Oh my god, I’m not crazy. Well, I am, but as far as my odd hearing goes, I’m not. I can hear frequencies that are low and also so high off the charts that is nuts. I can hear sounds from extremely long distances. I can hear every electric device in this house that it gives me a headache. But I struggle hearing the average pitch that most people speak in. Especially in my left ear. I’m also idiosyncratic, so I tend to hear more of my surroundings anyways. But I get chewed out for hearing a scream god knows how many blocks away, but I can’t hear the person I’m talking to without seeing their lips. Thank you for this!
I was wondering if this episode would touch on Auitory Processing Disorder, and it sounds like at least the first case could have been a form of it? A friend of mine was diagnosed in college, to which her symptoms were that she had FANTASTIC hearing... but couldn't make out what you were saying to her face, and digital audio was almost impossible to make out (except she was fine with music and movies- it was more phones that she couldn't process).
Yeah it’s not a deafness persay, just garbles words if in a loud environment or facing away from someone. Probably why it wasn’t mentioned.
I was diagnosed with it as a kid so I have experience lol
@@anonymousartist8751 Aye, watching through the whole episode I can see how it's not related to the topic that was trying to be focused on, and was left out.
@@OlyChickenGuy yeah, it’s more of a brain problem than an ear problem
It's probably because she has the inability to tune or ignore sounds outside a conversation like say you're on a school bus and your friend is talking to you but you can't listen to them because all you can pay attention to is the loud noises the kids behind you are making or the sound of the wheels on the bus move or the sound of the birds outside and so on. Also I think the reason why your friend can't process talking on the phone is because she can probably only hear the static sound when someone is talking to her especially on a long distance call.
At least she can still hear Micheal jackson
Even though I hear on both ears, I still can't tell where sounds are coming from and I don't know what's causing it, but it's always been like this.
Sounds horrible.
I think I have some of this. I find it kind of hard to understand speech, especially men. I can do it but it's not that easy, it's like trying to understand foreign language. It requires a lot of focus. However I can hear things like the electronic mouse repellents that are supposed to be at a frequency out of the range of human hearing. They are really annoying. My hearing is also really sensitive - I get strangely irritated by sounds like rain dropping against metal windowsill for example and I can hear TV two floors below me. But I constantly tell people to lower the radio volume if its playing in the same room because I can't hear the words in songs when they are played loud, not to mention - the loud, messed up noise is draining me and causing anxiety.
OWWW that noise really hurt, 6:07
I paused the video and can still hear it ???
I have hyperacusis *and* auditory processing disorder, so not only are sounds at certain high pitches (e.g. flutes or violins playing, kittens meowing, that tinny noise in the background of low-quality sound recordings) physically painful for me, I have no idea what you just said. I literally hear more clearly when I'm reading captions.
same with the captions thing for me
First time i heard about the mosquito thing was when one of my older teachers caught a student using it for their text notifications. The teacher explained that students use it to use their phones without teachers knowing due to not being able to hear it due to old age. Needless to say the student panicked when they got caught.
dang dude blast back to lkike 2008 lol
@@animeloveer97 2005 but yeah 🤣
I thought I couldn't hear the buzz at all, but then I pulled my phone speaker close to my ear and it felt like a small sewing needle made of sound was piercing my eardrum, and it was actually painful. That is the most accurate description I could think of. What gives?! The wife knows my hearing is wonky and a doctor once told me I had "blown out a range", likely due to loud music as a kid.
I went back and could hear it only with the speaker close to my ear too. I wonder if I could hear it w/o him talking over it now.
Thanks, Brew. You just gave me tinnitus

great video! I have Menier's and I'm glad to see more info on it becoming more mainstream. I just got new earbuds (jabra 7) and when setting them up it played a hearing test on each earbud to customize the sound. It's been amazing but was sad to realize that I've lost more hearing.
Ooh, a new video, time to binge watch :]

I've been living with Meniere's for about 35 years and I've never heard it explained this well before I honestly had trouble explaining it in the past thank God for the Lahey clinic in Massachusetts
What is it like
I passed my hearing test at 100% but the constant ringing in my ears is almost the same as the sounds they played. I just guessed and hoped for the best .
you should have told them about the ringing... thats tinnitus
One day I woke up and felt like everything I hear was a semitone lower than usual, but it basically fixed itself halfway through the day somehow...
I have the exact opposite of this I can’t hear female voices/ children or high pitched noises. I don’t hear the beginning/ending of sentences, and consonants are easily missed especially if there any background noise. Hearing aids help to a certain extent but even then it doesn’t always help.
6:07 - I litterally jumped up on my bed upon hearing that lol I dunno why, but that sudden sound starting worked as a screamer for me
0:36 that seems oddly specific
When "The mosquito" was played I genuinely just thought it was my ears ringing
It does that a lot lol
So if I talk in a goofy voice, would she hear me?
I am 50 and I can hear mosquitos buzzing near my ears. Always hear dog whistles too. Didn't hear the mosquito device though
I have tinnitus that is thought to induced by adjustments of my SSRI medication dose. High pitched Ringing or whine intensifies for a couple of days and then after a week or so it disappears completely or is barely noticeable. Has a hearing test and examination and have perfect hearing. It's fascinating to think it's almost like hearing the changing in the way your brain is firing or perceiving signals. It is trippy how complex brains are.
Fascinating! This information should be widely shared.
I think I had a temporary case of this after a severe concussion. During my recovery everything seemed to be significantly louder.
At night I would be woken up whenever one of my parents (on the opposite side of the house) went to use the bathroom. I also had to wear construction site style headphones to go anywhere outside the house without getting a terrible headache.
makes sense cause swelling
So that’s why every girl I try to talk to seems to just ignore me
This is quite interesting that something like that could happen
when you played the mosquito tone, I certainly heard it that was waaaayyyy too loud, what frequency was that? it seemed quite a bit lower pitch than a crt which is at the edge of my hearing in my mid 20's(I don't hang out at places that play loud music/other noise, CRT because I have one for retro gaming and parents still have one when I'm at their house). When I was a kid I could tell when my brother was up if I heard the crt whine, the tv might be on mute at 6 am but you can't stop the whining :)
I was diagnosed with meniere’s years ago, but now I know it’s most likely cochlear hydrops because I don’t experience vertigo and my hearing is often perfect. It changes based on diet and allergies. When I do lose it, it’s higher frequencies in one ear. I can still hear everyone, but their voices are much deeper to the point of being unrecognizable.
