Skyquakes, Upsweeps, and Sky Trumpets | Terrifying Sounds that Signal the End of the World

this episode of the wi files is brought. to you by Simply Safe there's no safe. like Simply. Safe The Book of Revelation says the end. of the world will be announced with the. sound of seven trumpets each blowing of. the trumpet brings a new apocalyptic. event after the seventh trumpet. Armageddon for centuries people have. reported lowf frequency hums the crack. of thunder on a clear day and the sound. of cannon fire in the middle of nowhere. mysterious sounds have been heard at the. bottom of the ocean and in outer space.

and they've been heard long before. modern machines and Industry recently. people have been recording and sharing. videos of these loud unnatural sounds. and some of them they sound a lot like. [Music]. trumpets no I'm sorry Mrs McGill Cy that. that box was probably meant for my house. yeah no I I didn't order a case of. champagne it was prob yeah human thank. goodness you're there give me a minute. I'll come get it let me guess it's an.

emergency stop with this sarcasm this is. an emergency okay okay here's what he. needs you to do grab your Polaroid. camera leave your cell phone at the. studio go to the valet at the Golden. Nugget and say I lost my shirt at crabs. he'll give you the keys to a van that'll. be parked in front of the Elvis wedding. chapel then get in and look under the. bobblehead camel on the dash follow the. written directions to my location and. when you arrive knock the first three. lines of the gbur dress and mor coat on.

the door so I know it's you yeah but I. never lost my shirt in craps that's all. you heard I'm in real trouble over here. okay what's going on look look you know. I enjoy hosting a wi files but I think. my immense Fame has one tiny draw back I. have a stalker I'm sure that you don't. have a stalker and hang on you don't. host the wi files I host the wi files. yeah whatever you got to tell yourself. to sleep at night pal and I absolutely. do this weirdo and a van keeps showing. up at my house really that that is a.

little scary he keeps leaving me boxes. full of gifts I get stuff I talk about. on the show things I really want. yesterday when I came home there were. boxes inside my bowl just get a security. system from Simply Safe how does this. abrupt shift in tone indicate it's time. for today's sponsor well you bet your. sweet dorsal fin it does Simply Safe is. comprehensive security for the whole. home they've got sensors and cameras to. protect you from break-ins floods fires. yeah but what do I do if I see on the.

cameras well Simply Safe has 24/7 live. guard protection professional monitoring. agents that can see and speak live to. Intruders in your home and their Smart. Alarm indoor camera is the only camera. that can trigger the alarm and blare a. built-in siren oh I can blare an alarm. and yell insults at them that'll get. their attention it sure will and the. system is super easy to install yourself. but they also have Professional. installation available and the entire. system can be controlled with the Simply. Safe app oh yeah this all sounds great. great but the last time I used an alarm.

company I had to deal with contracts and. all these extra costs well Simply Safe. never locks you into a long-term. contract or charges hidden fees. professional monitoring plans are. available for less than $1 a day I'm. sold did they give us one of those ideal. thingies yep save 20% on your system and. your first month is free when you sign. up for fast protect monitoring just go. to simplysafe. [Music]. SL the wi files that's it okay I got to.

get this done before my stalker shows up. again he's easy to see cuz he always. brings his gifts in a brown van and. wears a matching brown shirt and shorts. uh brown shirt brown shorts Brown van oh. yeah the van has yellow writing on the. side it's so creepy that he brings. exactly what I want every time he must. have a camera in my bowl oh maybe a. listening device I need to call my buddy. at the embassy it's time for another bug. sweep in here well how much vodka is in.

your bowl you know that you black out. right um well the last time you went on. an online shopping binge I ended up with. a waterproof turntable a strobe light. and a disco ball all on my porch yeah. and you know how awkward it was to. explain the brass Pole to my neighbors. but that was exercise. equipment uh okay I got to go sign up. for Simply Safe I can't believe I did. that again it's going to take me forever. to pay off that underwater sound. system.

The Book of Revelation 8 describes the. opening of the seventh seal which. contains seven trumpets to be sounded By. Angels and I saw the seven angels who. stand before God and seven trumpets were. given to them then the seven angels who. had the seven trumpets prepared to sound. them oh seven trumpets if these angels. want to form a decent jazz band they're. also going to need a trombone a banjo. and and a pretty good drummer uh the.

sounding of the trumpets in Revelation. signals the apocalypse not the formation. of a jazz band you sure the Bible's not. talking about a jazz band no I'm sure. it's about the end of the world so it's. about Judgment Day yep okay hear me out. oh here we go what's the city most. famous for jazz New Orleans what's the. most famous New Orleans jazz song how am. I supposed to know that it could be. anything okay what's the one song in the. whole world that when you're at. Preservation Hall in nor.

you have to tip extra for them to. play um When the Saints Go Marching In. right and what's that song about that. song is about Judgment Day Bingo you. just blew my mind yeah okay assuming the. Angels aren't forming a jazz band on. Judgment day but they could be but let's. assume they're not when each of these. trumpets blow calamities. unfold first Hail Fire and Blood rain. onto the Earth seas turn to blood then. Darkness then locusts then a huge Army.

of Darkness appears and finally the Ark. of the Covenant is revealed though some. Christians take these doomsday. predictions literally many don't and. non-believers don't believe any of this. but whether you're a Believer or not you. have to admit that it would be. terrifying to hear the sound of trumpets. blowing especially when the sound seems. to be coming from nowhere and everywhere. at the same. time just before midnight on March 17th. 2020 the people of houon woke up to Erie. sounds that seem to be coming from the.

[Music]. sky creepy even creepier it sounded like. music there's no Machinery nearby or. construction. so I have no idea where it's coming. from. [Music]. weird.

a few months later the same sounds were. heard in. [Music]. Argentina this sound was heard all over. the world Denmark Singapore New Zealand. Ireland California really everywhere in. San Antonio The Sounds were less. Musical.

oh this is. [Music]. scary and sometimes like in the Czech. Republic it feels like a. [Music]. presence.

[Music]. a dark angry. [Music]. [Music]. [Music]. presence sometimes it sounds like the. Roar of an. animal.

[Music]. yeah any mention of dragons in the Bible. yep in Revelation the dragon represents. Satan okay this is. terrifying.

yeah uh this isn't funny anymore that's. definitely something alive these sounds. are generally known as Sky trumpets and. there are a lot of theories about what. they actually are some scientists say. it's a weather event but Sky trumpets. can be heard in all kinds of weather. even on clear. days some say the sounds are geological. in nature that they come from the. movement of the.

[Applause]. earth just have a listen to. this so what are you hearing well we. don't really know now that could be the. Earth moving but what about when the. sounds just go on and. on.

some scientists think the sound has. something to do with the Earth's. magnetic field and most people don't. know this but the Aurora Borealis and. Australis they make. sound but the truth is nobody really. knows what causes Sky trumpets they can. sound like music like Machinery or even.

like the Roar of a dragon but those. aren't the only unexplained sounds that. come from the sky sometimes on a. perfectly sunny day without a cloud in. sight the sky sounds like it's tearing. itself. apart the iroy lived in Upstate New York. when the early Europeans made contact. one of the first things they warned the. settlers about was the strange noises. that came from the sky the iroy believed. it was the sound of the great spirit.

continuing to create the world in rip. vanwinkle which was published in 1819. author Washington Irving references. thunder-like sounds in the Catskill. Mountains the Catskill Mountains had. always been haunted by strange beings. that his father had once seen them in. their Old Dutch dresses playing at nine. pins in the hollow of the mountain and. that he himself had heard one Summer. Afternoon the sound of their ball s like.

distant peels of. Thunder The Unexplained booms near Sena. Lake are so commonly heard they've got. their own name The Guns of senica. they've been heard since at least 1850. and they do sound like cannons. firing the earliest record of the guns. of Sena comes from a short story. inspired by the booming sounds that was. published in.

1850 it is a sound resembling the. explosion of a heavy piece of artillery. that can be accounted for by none of the. known laws of nature the report is deep. Hollow distant and imposing no. satisfactory theory has ever been. broached to explain these noises the. most that can be said is that such. sounds are heard though at long. intervals and that no one as yet has. succeeded in ascertaining their.

cause we call these Sky Quakes and these. skyquakes have been reported all over. the. world like Sky trumpets leading theories. for the cause of skyquakes are the. shifting of tectonic plates or maybe. something to do with the Earth's. magnetic.

field a geological explanation would be. easy to prove but so far nothing clearly. something is going on because everybody. in the area can hear Sky trumpets and. Sky Quakes but there are sounds that. only a small percentage of people can. hear and those people are not the lucky. ones. in 1991 the residents of TOS New Mexico.

were shaken out of their sleep by a. strange humming sound it was described. as a lowf frequency Rumble like the. sound of a distant engine running well. more like thousands of. [Music]. engines the sound was maddening people. were getting headaches intense nausea. and suffering from insomnia but. strangest of all only about 2% of people. could actually hear it these unlucky few.

call themselves The. [Music]. hearers after we moved here within the. first few months I just woke up in the. middle of the night and U heard this. strong humming sound some people can. hear it some people can't some people. like it rattles their teeth and stuff. and like drives them insane and some. people hear it and doesn't bother them. New Mexico is home to several facilities. with sophisticated equipment they teamed. up to study the hum the Los elos. National Lab Sandia National Labs.

Philips Air Force laboratory and the. University of New Mexico all. participated in a study high-tech. equipment was set up at a few locations. where the hum was prevalent scientists. collected acoustic geodynamic seismic. magnetic and electromagnetic. measurements but even with all this. modern technology the study was unable. to find the source of the to's hum but. there were increased levels of. electromagnetism in the area during the. study as a result we are left with a.

mystery there are no known acoustic. signals that might account for the hum. nor are there any seismic events that. might explain it there are no unusual. lines at suspect frequencies in the. electromagnetic spectrum recorded near. TOs and then just like that the hum was. gone this was a welcome relief for the. people of ta but a few years later a new. hum appeared in Windsor. Canada it's an unsolved mystery keeping. this neighborhood awake at night sounds.

like 50 trucks starting up when it when. it's very loud what is it there are a. lot of theories spaceships uh hter space. to American Military um installations. during a single day 22,000 people. complained about the hum researchers. think the sound was coming from nearby. Zug Island where there's a lot of. industrial activity but there's been. industry on the island for a 100 years. the hum is new and it doesn't explain. why only 2% of people could hear it and.

that's something interesting 2% of all. people can hear the hum whether they can. hear or not wa what even 2% of deaf. people can hear the hum W hums have. begun popping up all over the world on. every continent the UK Australia New. Zealand India and South Africa all. report hums Sunday it was at its peak. and it was vibrating you could feel it. through your. body and then it starts to die down. again and then you feel it building up. again. it's like the village has been cut in.

half this end doesn't seem to experience. anything uh but from Midway downwards. the further down the village you go it. seems to be more and more some are extra. low frequency hums like in t New Mexico. other hums are higher pitched and sound. like running your finger around the rim. of a. glass it's profoundly. annoying as you hear the noise it's hard. to make out what it. is what's the. sound Mo Hussein he took video walking.

home one night he's noticed the sound. for over a year I liken it to like some. sort of Alien. Invasion an interesting side note there. was one way the hearers of the hum could. find relief and you're not going to. believe what worked what tinfoil hats YY. yep even just a thin layer of foil was. enough to disrupt the sound and. regardless of the frequency there's. still no solid explanation for the hums. but you can't help but link these sounds. to The Harp array in Alaska. harp is an array of antennas that are.

used to study the properties of the. ionosphere but it's rumored that harp. has been used for creating weather. events and for creating earthquakes now. that's considered a fringe Theory but. even the harp project website. acknowledged that experiments were. conducted which used electromagnetic. frequencies to fire puls directed beams. of energy in order to quote temporarily. excite a limited area of the ionosphere. these are just a few of the mysterious. sounds reported on land and in the air. things get really weird when we start.

listening. underwater for over 70 years we've had. networks of microphones listening to the. sounds of the sea they're called. hydrophones and they were initially. planted to search for enemy submarines. in 1991 scientists discovered an. unexplained recurring sound known as the. upsweep.

oh that's an underwater alien vessel. that is one of the theories the source. of the sound is somewhere between New. Zealand and South America though the. sound is loud enough to travel across. the entire Pacific Ocean alien engines. got big pipes but what's odd is the. sound is seasonal it's heard mostly. during spring and fall aliens probably. take off for the holiday in 1997. scientists picked up a strange sound. coming from from the South Pacific Ocean.

this one they called the. bloop that's it I make that sound every. time one of my guppies pulls my. finger no no no that was sped up 16. times at normal speed it sounds very. different.

[Laughter]. okay that was weird yeah the sound. lasted almost a full minute and was loud. enough to be picked up by microphones. 3,000 M apart now no animal on earth is. this loud and then in 2016 a hydrophone. was sent to the deepest spot on earth. the trough in the Mariana Trench called. Challenger Deep it's 36,000 ft below the. surface that's almost 7 m down the. Mariana Trench is one of of the most. mysterious places on Earth and due to.

the high pressure at those depths very. few people have ever seen it so. scientists thought they would listen to. it instead and when they did they heard. moaning mysterious sounds coming from. the ocean tend to have geological. explanations but that sounds like. something. alive and it's not even the strangest. sound recorded in the Mariana Trench a.

few years earlier researchers captured a. sound that doesn't sound like an animal. and it doesn't sound geological it. sounds. [Music]. mechanical a short 2 to 4 second complex. sound was recorded that features a 38 HZ. moan with both harmonics and amplitude. modulation followed by broad frequency.

metallic sounding sweeps up to 7.5 khz. this sound was recorded regularly during. both fall and spring. surveys they call it the Western Pacific. biot twang biot twang it sounds like. something I used to grow in my dorm room. closet hey come on pal we got kids. watching tomato plants kids I was. growing tomato plants thank you most. relaxing Tomatoes you ever had. again there's no clear explanation for.

these sounds but maybe the strangest. sound ever recorded didn't come from the. air or land or the sea it came from. outer. [Music]. space it was the evening of August 15th. 1977 the sky over Ohio was clear as. astronomer Jerry aan sat in his basement. office scanning radio signals from deep. space he was volunteering with Ohio. State Unity University's Big Ear radio. telescope working with seti the search.

for extraterrestrial intelligence in. other words Jerry was listening for. signs of alien life Jerry was looking at. a print out of sounds recorded a few. days earlier the data reflected the. intensity of the sounds recorded across. a number of different frequencies the. relative intensity was represented by a. number 1 through n and after nine would. move on to letters from A to Z the. typical sounds picked up by Big Ear were. usually relatively low represented by a. one or two basically just background.

noise but on August 15th Big Ear picked. up a signal that registered. 6eq. J5 that is an unbelievably intense. reading it lasted for 72 seconds and. peaked at an intensity 30 standard. deviations above the sound setting. normally captured now 10 deviations are. rare 30 deviations that's borderline. impossible this was so amazing that. Jerry circled the string of data and red. and wrote wow next to it it's been known. as the wow signal ever since for over 50.

years Big Ear listened for radio. emissions at a frequency near 1420 MHz. this is the frequency that hydrogen. naturally emits hydrogen is the most. common element in the universe so this. is a logical way to search for alien. life when Jerry aan spotted a sharp. Spike at that frequency he knew there. was only a small chance that it was. background noise whatever it was the. signal had to be artificial the signal. was also very con concentrated which is. how a deliberate radio signal from.

another world would most likely look a. natural event would have been heard. across multiple frequencies the wow. signal was only picked up on this one. the signal was at precisely 1420 356 MHz. now that's too perfect no known. astrophysical source matches the. intensity of the wow signal but the. signal shows no trace of modulation or. data encoded which you'd expect from an. intentional broadcast unless there's. information there that we just can't. understand Saidi tried for years to pick.

up the signal again but it never. returned but if aliens were trying to. make contact you'd expect the message to. repeat follow-up studies at Big Ear and. other telescopes have turned up nothing. but in 2012 Earth sent a response 35. years after the wow signal was recorded. the arbo telescope beamed a message. toward the constellation Sagittarius the. source of the original wow signal the. message included 10,000 tweets and. videos from celebrities including Steven. coar and the 2011 Miss Universe tweets.

from coar and Miss Universe great now. the aliens are going to think we're. stupid don't take a cheap shot at a. beauty queen I was talking about. [Music]. coar it's hard to identify the sources. of many of these mysterious sounds cuz. they can be far away like the Drone of a. machine in a distant Factory or sounds. generated by events that we can't see. like something deep in the ocean high in. the clouds or or even in deep space but. there are explanations for a lot of.

these mysterious sounds according to a. 2011 report from the US Geological. Survey Sky Quakes the rumbles heard on a. clear day could be caused by shallow. earthquakes or spontaneous Rock bursts. triggered by mining or from giant waves. breaking offshore or Loosely packed sand. dunes reshaped by strong winds a lot of. o yeah scientists don't really know what. causes skyquakes and the thunder-like. sounds might just be thunder. sometimes when the ground is stable the.

sound of thunder can reflect off the. Earth and travel a long distance and. this is a process called ducting this. means the sounds of thunder can be heard. without any visible storm activity some. Sky Quakes might just be noisy fish. sexs I'm sorry what now will male. midshipman fish produce incredibly loud. mating. calls during mating season the sound can. go on for hours Val was what a show off.

and when a group of males are competing. for mates they'll try to be the loudest. worst roommate. ever well sometimes these mating sounds. can bounce off buildings and boats in. fact a group of houseboat owners in selo. California once complained about a. strange sound that was loud enough to. wake them up at night they thought it. might be submarines turns out it was. just fish getting down if this fish. balls are and don't come a KN.

[Music]. in the hums usually have industrial. explanations building air vents. high-press gas lines high tension power. lines heavy machinery even Sonic booms. and oil Derek but these don't explain. all of them but they do explain most. there's even a theory that a small. percentage of people can actually hear. the resonant sound of the Earth this is. called the world hum though there's no. proof that that. exists the bloop upsweep sounds picked. up by hydrophones could be caused by.

underwater volcanoes or the collapse of. underwater caves or glaciers cracking or. Iceberg scraping the ocean floor or. alien vessels I can't prove you. wrong the biot twang recorded in the. Mariana Trench is now believed to be a. previously undiscovered whale call. the complex sound has a lot in common.

with other calls attributed to the dwarf. mink. whale and this is a mink. whale there is a problem with this. Theory though the mink whale only makes. the sound during mating season the. botang has been heard all year long so. again just a. theory but there is no working theory. that can explain the wow signal that.

Jerry aan discovered in. 1977 in 2017 a scientist claimed it was. caused by one of two comets that were. known to be moving through the area at. the time but this theory was eventually. dismissed because the timeline and. location just didn't line up and almost. 50 years later the wow signal is. considered by many to be the strongest. evidence we have that there's. intelligent alien life as for the. trumpets it's probably a weather. phenomenon or a geological event and not. a signal that we're approaching Judgment.

day but witnesses to these sounds do. feel a range of emotions from confusion. to Absolute. dread I have no idea where it's coming. from Fu. weird oh this is. [Music]. scary and even non-religious people who. hear the trumpets start thinking about. the apocal alypse I once heard a quote. that really hit me it's from Japanese.

novelist Haruki Mami he said everyone. deep in their hearts is waiting for the. end of the. world people in all cultures regardless. of Faith have a fascination with. apocalyptic scenarios and we always have. there are many reasons for this religion. the media and just Natural Curiosity but.

I think we're obsessed with the end of. the world because of a single Primal. reason control thinking about the. apocalypse allows us to prepare mentally. for the possibility when you watch a. movie about zombies or the aftermath of. nuclear war don't you wonder how you'd. react or if you'd survive well this is a. coping mechanism to help us manage our. emotions now here's a more practical. example when someone dies have you. noticed there are two kinds of people. one person might be overcome with grief.

but in someone else the grief just. doesn't seem to hit as hard I'm the. second type of person it's because I. spent a lot of time in my own mind. stressing and preparing for the. inevitable now my dad passed away a. little over a year ago and we were close. and I miss him and I think about him. every day but when he finally died I. wasn't overcome with emotion to some my. reaction seemed like I didn't care but. that's not it he was sick for a long. time and during that time when he was. alive. I thought about his death all the time I.

grieved as much as anyone but my grief. was spread out over a couple of years so. when the day finally arrived I was ready. for it now other kinds of people prefer. not to think about death until the. moment is Right upon them now there's. nothing wrong with that those kinds of. people are able to enjoy their time with. a sick family member without dwelling on. dark thoughts it's a more positive way. to live but the grief has to come out if. not over time then all at. once so when we think think about the. end of the world we're spreading those. emotions out a little at a time we're.

preparing so if the day finally arrives. we won't be paralyzed the people that. think the end of the world will never. come well those people will be zombie. food right they're not going to make it. but those of us who do like disaster. movies or have a garage full of prepper. gear we're thinking about the end we're. not just preparing physically we're. preparing mentally a little bit at a. time now I bet this is something. hardwired in our DNA by our creator by. God the simulation or whatever you want. to call it it's some kind of survivors.

Gene now don't panic people have been. predicting the end of the world for. thousands of years and they've always. been. wrong but although we don't know when. someday they're going to be right that's. 100% to fact and when they are I hope. you're. ready thanks so much for hanging out. with us today my my name is AJ you know.

I fear the crap cat I got stuck inside. M's home with MK TR I being only to. aware did Stanley Cub Bri fake the moon. landing alone on a film set with the. shadow people. there throughout well aliens just fought. the smiling man I'm. told and his name was cold. I can't believe I'm dancing with the.

fish fish on Thursday night Wednesday J. when all through the. night all I ever wanted was just the. truth to Fe all through the. night. [Music].
