All over the world, a disturbing sonic phenomenon is plaguing residents of rural areas, towns, and even big cities.
It’s actually something severely impacting people’s lives.
So I just woke up in the middle of the night and heard this strong humming sound, kind of low, kind of like a mummm.
A lot of people who hear the hum, they refer to it as a bunch of trucks.
Idling nearby.
It’s this low level, low frequency, bass kind of sound.
People say that the hum causes physical symptoms, sleeplessness, nausea, and it makes them nervous, and anxious, and depressed.
If this unnerving hum wasn’t coming from an external source, maybe the sound originated in the hearers themselves. Maybe this is tinnitus. Tinnitus is a condition where people constantly hear a ringing in their ears, and the reason is there might have been some sort of damage, and so to compensate, the brain sort of turns up its quote, unquote, listening mechanism. But this is probably not tinnitus, and the reason is tinnitus tends to be a very high signal, a very high constant whine. This is more like bass than like treble.
Some people can hear it. Some people can’t, and I live off in the middle of nowhere, and I listen for it, but I’ve never heard it.
Mysteriously, almost as quickly as the hum began, it disappeared.
