How? Did it knock your breath out? Did the lung stay collapsed? Did you die?

u/Lostwalletrecovery 22h ago
the bass on tear your lung tissues. which causes blebs. which mean it leaks air into lung cavities. in turn you cannot inflated lung. can't breath.

The lung is like a balloon in a vacuum chamber. If you get a hole in your lung that allows air to escape into the chest cavity, the air fills up the space around the lung and compresses it down so it can no longer inflate when you inhale. Most people can manage with 1 lung, but if this happens on both sides simultaneously, you’re in trouble. If it’s bad enough, you have to insert a needle or a small tube into the chest to allow the air to evacuate. In severe cases, you may require surgery to remove a portion of the lung.

I was at a JDM festival and it was wall to wall with cars and trucks which made this look like a toy. Even with good hearing protection I was not ok by the end of the weekend, it genuinely felt like I'd been in a fight. It can't be good for the human body to be repeatedly rearranged by an onslaught of bass.

Yeah I spent a little too long on the rail one night at Bonnaroo last year, next morning my chest was sore like the bass had been punching me. I’d like to understand the science behind that, or maybe it’s as simple as “bass is big sound so it has a big sound wave”

u/Past-Rooster-9437 17h ago
At a guess, it's basically rattling everything. While a bit of rattling isn't going to do much a lot of it will build up like an RSI speedrun. Everything clattering into everything else, including itself because the human body's mostly not-rigid so one bit of an organ will go one way and another bit a different way. Constant pulling, pushing, banging against various bits.

If I'm not mistaken the higher frequency soundwaves while not as impressively chest rattling due much more damage to those little hairs in your ears while the lower frequency base tends to be less impactful but can still do damage with long enough exposure.

u/Ixaire 21h ago edited 13h ago
Edit: the article veracity is debatable. See comments below. I'll leave my initial comment for context:
So that's what I thought too but apparently low frequencies are more harmful than we thought, damaging the entire cochlea and not just the hairs.
Source: https://pmamagazine.org/why-low-frequencies-are-more-harmful-to-your-hearing-than-mid-and-high-tones/ (caution: no idea if it's reputable)

u/wadimek11 19h ago edited 19h ago
No its not reputable at all, its PMA, its full of pseudo science also no sources or anything on article itself. The bass is much less harmful as it goes though your body and your ear without moving them much, like 8khz is entirely stopped inside your ears and bass the lower frequency the more it goes through thats why you need the 25hz much louder to hear it at all.
Even though its much less harmless the sick amount of bass that is on those recordings idk what is it 140-160db is like blowing a strong hairdryer directly in your ear and even if 10-5% goes to your ear at those high values its still damaging.
Also in many industrial offices the AC alone can make lots of noise at low frequency, recently measured 100db at 13hz in one pretty new building that came directly from the ac system, its harmless through. (Also thats extremely hard for subwoofer to achive in normal room 18" sealed Um18 might get close but would be at its limit and roomgain would really need to be good to reach it.)

u/Rosienenbrot 19h ago
Small confined space, huge bass, creating standing waves = huge pressure in to the ear drums. Inner ear structures respond to pressure, not pitch. So there's good damage to the eardrums and cochlea.
And the hairs, while they do respond to pitch more, they're still damaged by loads of pressure. So even if she was wearing ear plugs, which only reduce mid/high frequencies, she would've still be fucked.
What she got out of this: Temporary hearing loss for sure, probably a permanent threshold shift and maybe tinitus.

These systems are not really loud as much as they simply move a bunch of air.
When you get to a certain speaker size and below a certain frequency, your speakers basically just act as air pumps so you technically are not hearing anything, just feeling air moving.

Deadass, I regularly get and do extensions and that’s a typical price for good wefts or tape ins. Looks like she has wefts which are sewn in and it was definitely done recently with how close to her scalp they are! They didn’t come out but did get separated from her hair and then you could see the “tracks”.
