That tower of hockey pucks sounds like it's being tickled.
Lol
No it sounds like: lalalalalallalalalalalalalalalallalalagaallalallalalallaaallaallalalaalallalalalalaaaggaaggagllaug
This siren would make the tornado laugh and then it would leave.
lol 😅
Yeah!!!!😂
XD
that's priceless
Jacob Tompke No. That's what happens when a tornado hears a Chicago siren. Here the tornado thinks. "Hm, modern place with a very audiable siren. I'll leave as everybody's already long gone. Damn those modern sirens!"
Danish Luftalarm: hold my (equally danish) beer
Me:try’s singing a song
Also me:sounds like the sirens
Before Whelens Were Installed In McKinney, McKinney Previously Installed Their Siren System Since May Of 1959. I’m Not Sure What Siren They Installed In 1959, But It Is Located Next To The City Hall, Which Is Their Original Fire Department. If You See That Wichita, Kansas Newsreel From 1959, That’s What The Fire Dept And Police Dept Act The Same Way As McKinney.
The siren is a Denver Quadruplex
Go home siren; your drunk.
Liam Ravelaz ik
+Liam Ravelaz it's Danish
Liam Ravelaz It's European!
Ok ok I get it, I just deleted my Comment...
SIREN GO HOME NOW! YOU ARE TO DRUNK FOR WORK!!!
Those always give me chills when I hear them
Me: Hello, Mr. LOLler Siren!
Siren: hey. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
The siren tone consists of two tones separated by something between 5 and 10 Hz, which creates a beat frequency corresponding to the difference. This is done by most of the german electronic sirens, and it is thought to increase how noticeable the siren tone is over background noise. But the problem is the announcer still thinks that it is a good idea to leave long awkward pauses between words, which actually makes the brain think harder to piece together phrases because the natural timing of speech is lost.
That natural pause (from what I once read) is to reduce the possibility of sirens crosstalking and making the message become garbled because the delay in distribution of the message could mean some other mast is still speaking a word, along with accounting for the possibility of echoes making it difficult to hear otherwise.
It's a bit like how people making live train station announcements are strongly advised to have someone make a good recording in the station building and listen to it, to see if there are things they could change to improve the message sent, and make it less difficult to understand.
True story everybody, so me and my friend were actually driving around McKinney late at night when it started to hail really bad, we didn’t think much of it so we pulled off into taco bueno’s parking lot. So we sit in the car and listen to the hail hit the car and the restaurant was closed inside. We didn’t think much of anything really until we heard this siren go off and it freaked us the hell out. So we ran inside the closed restaurant and got some free food and listened to that siren go off for like 3 minuets 😂
Wow interesting
I think Homer Simpson turned into a siren
LOL
Dohdohdohdohdohdohdoh lol
D'oh!
I heard the "D'oh"s!
Lol
*THAT HAPPENED TODAY IM LIKE WTF THAT WAS LOUD ASF TOO 😂😂*
That tone is best possible preparation and I think it's a cool tone .
Man, talk about creepy! Definitely can't mistake that for anything else.
Was chilling at mckennie today and almost shit my pants when I heard the sirens. I can’t trust anything in 2021 so I literally checked the sky for airplanes 💀
I wax working for time warner cable and I did a install in McKinney and I heard these sirens go off and heard it talk! I was freaked out!
2:05 the siren winded down gradually instead of just stopping?
The Siren has been drinking and he became Drunk. Just imagine the Tornado was laughing so hard.
I live in McKinney TX and in the middle of the night when I hear it I keep waking up and it's so annoying
That's a best possible protection tone. This 2910 that just been recording with. The best possible protection tone is in 465 Hz. And you hear another 2910 you hear it 560 Hz all the best possible protection tones.
Why does every electronic siren in McKinney sound this warble attack sound? What control board are they using?
It looks exactly like the ones we got here in Denmark.. and it sounds like ours, just in a little different way but pretty much the same.. except that we don't have these "this was only a test!" after the tone.
Type 'Danish air raid siren' and hear how similar they sound and how similar they look.. ;)
That is a Whelen and that's a voice recording to not scare the crap out of people when they test
Coolcat97 I see
I know but you get the point and It's an American siren
Coolcat97 Yes I know. ;)
Ok
Instantly sent me into panic mode. My heartis racing. Thats scary
I heard a whelen doing best possible protection tone on a slow winddown
Why does the tornado siren look like its slightly shaking?
My favorite signal
Creepy sound ever O_O
Cheesecakezgames The Siren was actually drunk. 😂😂😂
Why place the siren by the playground with children
anyone notice a spark on one of the cells as the siren turns off at 1:58? (not a siren expert idk what to call the 'cells')
No. They are called compression drivers.
This tone is a European tone and us similar to the ones in Denmark
And many other European countries. It's not particularly Danish. Denmark has just chosen to use the "Indoor Protection" and "All Clear" signals as their peace time emergency signals.
How denmark have sirens to sound looked like that??? And even texas??????? Thats crazy
Sirens like this are super cool 😎📢📢📢📢📢📢📢
This is a Whelen WPS-2910.
Me:Okay siren, how much have you had to drink. Siren: I *hic* don't know *hic*. Maybe 3 or 4 beers *hic*, and a bottle of *hic* tequila. Time to *hic* test. (Makes that drunk siren tone).
Me: Okay you need to go home, your drunk.
Keaton0801 I don't wanna go home because fa la la la fa la la la
it's just denmark's sirens but more drunk
crazy who ever thought of this siren
Is this siren messed up in the head?
It actually uses the European tone set.
Why the hell does McKinney have there Whelens set to the European standard tones ,they need to switch them to the American standard tones.
Its Denmark back with the lolololols! 🤣🤣
are you sure that's for tornadoes or for a set off alarm for motorcycle races?
thats possibly the most oddest siren ive ever heard
It's a Danish tone
I think Mr. Whelen is drunk on Denmark today
Sounds like it is shivering
Why a Dutch siren tone
*Danish
+DutchGameGuy00 thanks what I meant don't know why I said Dutch
It's neither Danish nor Dutch. It was developed for Europe by Whelen as the EU wanted a standardized set of tones, that were a lot more audible than the classic single tones.
@Cobras7111 It's the "Take Best Possible Cover" tone. It's used in Europe.
Whelens dont sound like that. is it sick????
Whelens r loud
I love whelen omg
whelen 2810 what tone is it playing?
BPP
(Best Possible Protection)
I love the tone
Why does it use European tones?
Gas Proof Protection Tone?
No. "Best Possible Protection".
@Droideka133 no its for european tones but US can get it if they request it
this doesn't chop air it is a sound
Best possible protection tone fast
Brub my fire house has this thing it’s the same sound as this one for a fire
Why Whelen. Just, why?
Good sound drivers though. Especially with the voice clip.
Yea it might sound good but European tones can also damage the drivers
FA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA FA LA LA LA LA😂😂😂
Sound so close to the danish air raid sirens :o

So cool
What is this tone called?
BPP
(Best Possible Protection)
@@AxelTheFanMan5733word thanks
Wrong, actually. it's a 2910 maybe even a 2810.
Best possible protection
Aaaaand it's running European Standard Tones.... they need to change the panel on that thing to an American Tones panel
Mario_174 It is the best possible protection tone. I'm assuming they use these because Texas gets pretty bad tornados.
Bro the siren is laughing my siren is loud as crap and I can’t hear for 3 min after XD
Why is it running a European tone
One time there was a tornado in McKinney Texas when I was 4 or 3 the tornado was right down the street I remember that sound
My dog Two 4 he didn't come in the closet so I went out and brought him in and that was a close call.
This siren should be in some European country.
We have it in Denmark but they're not using this sound. /watch?v=3PVT0BcK-2I for the sounds used in Denmark
Glorbite
We do use this sound, but only in war time.
In Denmark we have four tones.
"Indoor Protection"
"Best Possible Protection" (This)
"Gas Proof Protection"
"All Clear"

That Kid Is So Geeky Not To Be Mean And That Shirt Tho SIT Back And Relax And The Siren Will Go Off In Threee Minutes😂😂
That siren sounds like there's something wrong with it, or maybe like someone's repeatedly covering and uncovering a speaker with their hand!

True
It uses European tones, which is why. Few sirens in the US use these tones.
