    Is 45 minutes really the longest anyone can stay in a perfectly silent, pitch-black room?

    Many stories have circulated claiming the longest anyone has stayed in an ultra-quiet anechoic chamber is 45 minutes, the reason being any longer would drive you insane. To me this sounded like unsubstantiated rubbish, like the claim the Great Wall is the only manmade structure visible from space. So I put my own psyche on the line, subjecting myself to over an hour of the most intense quiet on Earth. No, this was not THE quietest room on Earth (-9dB) but it is one of the quietest, and the truth is once you put a person inside, they are by far the loudest thing in there so the sound rating of the room is irrelevant.
    I was not surprised to find that I could stay in there for as long as I liked and feel perfectly fine. What was surprising is that my heartbeat was audible. You can hear it on the sound recording. Now I wasn't consciously aware of the sound of my heart while in the room, but I was more aware of the feeling of it beating.

    I was born completely deaf, and always thought "silence" is what I experience. My brain doesn't have the ability to receive sound, so sound is a non tangible to me, something I can never understand or imagine. It just hit me that "silence" is a non tangible for me too. Silence only exists to people who can hear sound, because thats the only way you could recognise it, that silent room and standing right under a jet engine would be the same for me, this is why I could never learn how to speak vocally, even though I know several mouth shapes from my mom and sisters signing to me an speaking at the same time.
    Im also confused, so hearing people ALWAYS hear sound? even with no wind or people around? Being the only deaf person in my family, I was always surprised to learn how many things make noise, and wake people up, It never occurred to me that closing doors makes a sound or picking up a plastic bag makes a sound, but fabrics and my hand open and closing does NOT make a sound. crazy world hearing people live in

      Everything that moves in air including your fingers makes a sound it's just that sometimes, especially for small movements it's just so slight that most people can't hear it. I guess you could consider a soundproof room sort of like light. When you go to bed at night your room is very dark but there's still some semblance of light there. The equivalent example of a soundproof room would be a room that's in complete darkness. So yeah we always hear something sort of like you always see something, it's just that it might be incredibly slight.

      @mrroque8321 2 года назад +254

      Your comment is fascinating to me but yes rubbing a fabric can make a sound, opening and closing your hand can too it just depends how aggressive and close to an ear it is. Anything that moves can make a sound it’s just really that a lot of things can move slow or without rubbing against anything to where most people won’t hear it unless they put their ear right next to your hand opening and closing for example because that’s such a low frequency.

      @@alexanderackerman3807 THANKS! that is super helpful, I have always wondered things like, what would hearing be like, and how would the world be like with 5 senses instead of 4. It blows my mind that there is a whole world that most people experience all the time and is invisible to me, kinda fascinating! Thinking of it in terms of light makes sense, because technically seeing dark or black is not the same as seeing nothing, when you close your eyes, your optic nerves are still active. I know some deaf people have hearing aids that allow them to pick up sound, and do understand to some degree what sound is, but I actually don't have auditory nerves so I will never really know what sound is, but its very interesting to learn about .

      He cheated by talking to himself. The longer the ear is in silence the more unusual sounds it will pick up, or even create its own sounds to compensate (auditory hallucinations), like a camera lense trying to focus on nothing, that's why most people can't take more than 45 minutes. Every time he spoke out loud he allowed his ear to focus and reset his progress. This is like saying he broke a record for longest distance run without a break even though he sat down and talked to the camera every 5 minutes before running again.

    I did live sound effects (Foley) for over 25 years and often I would work in a "Dead Room" which was a modified A Chamber. Sometimes the actors would leave to listen to the playback of the scene and I would stay in the Dead Room waiting for them to come back for another take. The lights were never turned off but from experience I can state that in the silence of the room you would begin to hear your heartbeat and the blood pumping throughout your body. My ears started to hear something in the silence and slowly I began to hear the air flow within the room. I think under the correct circumstances it would have been an excellent location for deep meditation but I doubt that it would drive a normal person crazy. However some of the people I worked with ... ?

If you are near a busy street, sometimes you get acclimated to the constant background traffic noise. It's overall noisier than the USA because of the population density.

I think the idea of this place is scary for people who need stimulation or have intrusive thoughts, but people who meditate more, prefer quiet solitude and don't have mental health issues that conflict with places like this, they'd find it really freeing.
      I especially feel like the less stimulation there is, the more freedom and vividness my imagination has.

    A good deprivation chamber is an interesting experience. The body is so noisy that it’s far from quiet. A few times I felt like I was tumbling but it was very short. It’s great for mediation - quiet the mind and extremely relaxing. If I had 100k to spare I would certainly get one. Very deep caves are also very quiet, with short moments of rumbling (think it’s the moon attraction that pull the surface) but one has to stay long to hear them.

Not a single dim light coming through the window, nothing in front of me. I had to crawl on the floor through the room to find my flashlight on my backpack. It was the worst experience of my life and even remembering it makes me uncomfortable.

    You can have this at home with an earprotector or very good closed headphones. If you also want to have the "amplification of bodily sounds" effect, get a condensator microphone from your friend working at a recording studio, and loop the microphone back to your headphones.
    It's quite funny, if you ever get the chance.

      I watched a documentary about the sound and there was a guy playing the same music, first under the bridge that makes the great echoes, and then in the quiet room. The same thing sounded differently. I think that some music would sound better if recorded here, and some if recorded in the echo chamber.
      The documentary was amazing. I will now search for its name.

    Be great to have some information on the exact material and angles/lengths/arrangements of wedges, and room proportions, to best deaden the sound. I'd guess at that extreme it would prevent a stereo speaker setup recreating a sense of ambience corresponding to most recording environments, as any indirect sound would be dramatically attenuated. But, would that make stereo imagine seem incredible precise, or remove some of the audible clues about the position of sounds in space?
