    im addicted to this show

  • I hear it a lot :(

  • Its the humming birds

  • wish this hum could block out my wifes bitching

  • @benjicorral I hear ya bro

  • the matrix machines

  • I love that, "Here is where it gets crazy", part.

  • @UnknownXV Saaaame. I haven't asked anyone if they can hear it though, so my family might be able to. I haven't heard any hum though, at least nothing like they're describing it as

  • Comment removed

  • Here's where it gets crazy...

    The hum you hear is my Marshall amp. I can't get it to turn off! \,,/

  • 3:35 ...and i JIZZED IN MY PANTS

  • i hear it 2!!! it is like a factory is working at 3 km from me!!!

  • Here's where it gets crazy ...

    I can't stop noticing the Hum since watching this video.

  • put an ear plug in your ear and you will hear the "the hum" it is your own heart beat ,now if you don't clean your ears you can have a build up what will make the same effect

  • "HERE'S WHERE IT GETS CRAZY...

    I'm gay."

  • wat

  • Do what now?

  • Question to all besides the hum, i have been able to hear a tv,monitor,or other electronics and such on while in mute or be turned on while in another part of the house since i was little and was wondering if someone knows why or how when people i know dont seem to be able to hear it any of those sounds etc etc.....?

  • @RapturedOne777 I can hear them too, since I was a boy. I think the sound is too high pitched for most people to hear. May be we have a sense of hearing which is more sensitive to high tones...

  • @gab1t0w just a;ways wondered but cool man!

  • @RapturedOne777 i can hear that too..

  • @RapturedOne777 I hear some sort of strange sound when tvs are turned on, left on, and turned off. I can tell if a muted tv is on without looking at it.

    But I've never heard the hum.

  • @RapturedOne777 Me too! There's always a high pitch frequency noise that I hear the instant someone turns on a monitor or TV, but no one else hears it...

  • @RapturedOne777 I as well have heard this "noise" all my life.Not the hum which I have heard on occasion but the tv thing.I actually saw the doc about this among other things and I was told its just the sound of electricity moving thru the tv,etc.&that as @gab1t0w speculated that we r hearing or r able 2 hear sounds w/a higher freq,pitch&tone than most others.If his assessment is correct..its nothing spooky @ all about it.But..what if it isnt?!

  • this vid is more relevant now than ever. just do a search for hum noise heard in the past 6 months.

    its all over the fucking globe.

    1 possibility that wasn't touched upon here, was the speculation that the earth is going through a polar shift. personally i think this rings true today as 2012 is supposed to be a year with big changes, Mayan calender etc.

  • Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!

  • The Thu'um.

  • The humming sound you hear is me. I don't know the words to the song.

  • It's called the sound of silence. Go up into the mountains, and you can "feel" the silence. It's your own ears picking up on the noise of subatomic sound waves... kind of a much more "thicker" sound, much like the noise you hear from a tv that is "off," when in silent mode. So I've heard.

  • Must have been a U2 concert nearby

  • It's fucking tinnitus.

  • Probably the fridge!

  • This isn't what I thought it was going to be,

    I have heard of a specific type of meditation that Buddhists take where if they listen closely they can hear this soft humming sound. if the person can hear this sound, and resonate with its frequency they would reach a new level of peace and understanding. 

  • Yur listining to the innerds of yur boddy

  • Anyone ever stand in a big open room and hear a faint "ooooooooooo"? I also hear this when I go to bed. And I was once at a camp and heard this, the odd thing is that I saw 2 figures standing over me 2 nights later.

  • @halowarrior1000 Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuureeee.

  • First escribe what the hum is and where it comes from! I can't stand videos that go on forever for no reason! 1:49 and I couldn't take this crap any longer!

  • @troybrownrigg but that means you missed where it got crazy...;)

  • I just assumed everyone heard this "hum" in fact I thought it was the way our brains interpret silence.

  • i hear it and it's not the tv

  • It Sounds Like High Blood Pressure

  • i can never hear it because noone around me will shut the fuck up!

  • Oh my gosh :c I've seriously herd that before..

  • fuck. i thought i was the only one that heard that

  • It makes me happy, more creative and @ peace. @ night it's the best time. Im the only one ?

  • Hmm I think I like 'the hum'. Am I the only one ?

  • 1:08 ROLLING ROCK yeah!!!!

  • Anyone else notice that '1984' is his address? :D

  • it's the CIA tunnelling machines.... they are building their bunkers and global tunnels...if u look where the hum is heard u'd see they match up with the bunkers for the elite and the military D.U.M.B.s

  • I believe "The Hum" is just a physiological result of the human body and its functions. You do have a heart pumping blood through your body. The heart obviously makes an audible sound. The blood flowing through your body therefore should make sound too. That sound heard would be "The Hum".

  • Three people don't hear the hum.

  • I'm glad that I watched this video because I've been searching for this Hum story for a loooong time!

  • it-s everywhere but it doesn't drive me crazy nor does it cause me to lose sleep or anything...its a tiny, very bearable hum. To me, at least.

  • @truetwilight ohh i heard it once during a very deep meditation . It sounded like comming from everywhere. Do your hum sound like a OOHm sound?

  • this hum is everywhere! sometimes it hurts my ears

  • The hum or the "word" has been around for much longer than western society realizes. It has been around since the beginning of civilization. This "phenomenon" was observed in Egyptian times and is also talked about in great detail in allot of the eastern religions (thousands of years old). American culture is so young and has a long way to go in realizing it's potential. The word is a conduit to within.

  • HOW would they know it's not tinnitus?

  • This "hum" is (from my understanding) a sound from your mind. Through meditation, as your mind becomes more focused and clearer, it becomes easier to hear this "hum". I would describe it as perhaps your mind (perhaps thoughts and feelings, for example) manifested into the form of sound.

  • I lol when he said Congress investigated but found it inconclusive! Did people think they would say something else or here's where it gets crazy, FIXING THE PROBLEM! Wow! That would be a first for Congress to fix anything!

  • Dude at the end was just feeling the after effects of the new Jalapeno Fiesta platter from Taco Bell.

  • @ricogoldstar lmao, i caught that too

  • I have heard something similar to a hum almost my whole life. I find it to be a strange noise and I've always wondered what it was. It's also extremely random. I've thought that maybe it was just something normal going on outside, but it happens anywhere from in the morning to in the middle of the night..

  • i hear it but its more like a piercing sound

  • 2:59

    You magnifent bastard I read your book !

  • Maybe it is man made too.

  • This is the second video that doesn't come up so i can't watch it. Lol Is there a way that i can like the other one? Thank you. :D Love your channel.

  • I was having fun watching these videos now im a lil freaked out. Iv'e heard this noise since i was very young im 26 now and it still is heard once in awhile.

  • huh... isn't it obvious ? GREYBEARDS !

  • HHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMM­MM!!!

    

  • I am surprised some people are hearing this Hum noise also. I never knew that some people can hear this noise too. I got this Hum noise when I moved here 6 years ago. I live in Fayetteville, North Carolina. We have a big huge metal Electric Pole middle of the city.I wonder if this Pole is causing this Hum Noise? Who can I ask this? No one is going to believe me. I just wonder why some people hear this Hum noise not the others? When I report to my doctor does his clinic reports to government?

  • @64Hulya if you have it everyday your entire life you may never even notice it. maybe your body becomes adapted to it in someway. like if you had a 6th sence, never used, never needed to use it, never knew about. dont know about it...... how would you use? how would you know when you used it?

  • i hear it from time to time and believe it or not when i hear my luck changes for the day for example if i'm having a horrible day and i hear the hum good things start happening and vice versa

  • Comment removed

  • I am glad I watched this video. I've been hearing this Hum noise about few years it never goes away. I went to E.N.T doctor he said I have a hearing lost.Right? I hear perfectly good nothing is wrong with my hearing. I hear this Hum noise when I try to sleep & when there is no noise at night I hear it all the time. I thought I was going crazy :) I never understood where I got this Hum noise. I used hair dryer to dry my ear it did not go away. I was told by my doctor it is a nerve damage. Really?

  • I can hear this low frequency sound all the time, the more i focus on it , the louder it is. I live in Latvia and as much as i know electronics dont affect it... It kinda feels like its coming from my head.

  • i hear a hum almost every time im about to go to sleep...i could hear it for 5-10 seconds and then it goes away...

  • the hum is called white noise!

  • I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens.

  • get away from the antenna farm. you may have to go to some primitive country. this is probably 60 cycle ac hum and the simple proof is to get a software tone generator and see if it isn't the same pitch as all those electric appliances like the fridge and a/c motors etc. in a giant urban area this adds up to a monster drone and when its 3 am and there is no other noise you can hear it. its ac 60 cycle hum at least. maybe other sub frequencies as mentioned in the video. not heard in remote areas.

  • ok so does the government do anything that is good or are they all alien hiding mind corrupting all out to corrupt everyone. lmfao

  • Headphones only make this sound stronger cause they focus your ears.

  • i hear this at night when everything is quiet....

  • well i can hear the high pitch squeak.. but not the low hummmmmmmmmm

  • 3:25 SHAPE SHIFTING CAR O.O

  • Need some more info on a similar problem. I constantly hear a very high frequency sound. Almost like the phone apps or "mosquito ringtones" that make it impossible for older people to hear. The thing is that I'm only 18 and the earliest I can remember it was when I was around 8 or 9. The really weird thing is that whenever I'm near electronics that are active, even without emitting any sound, it amplifies. I never have any pain associated with it. Unless frequent night migraines are.

  • ummm can someone help me out here?

    well in this video it said that the hum can even be heard through headphones and such things...but i hear this noise only when its silent or im about to sleep or when im thinking deeply!! but also it never gives me any kind of headaches or anything and it will usually end withing a few minutes and btw i have no hearing problems...so is what i hear "the hum" or something, someone doesn't want me to know!

  • thumbs up if you hear this right now

  • does it make ur eardrums vibrate to where u can actually feel them vibrateing cuz if it does i hear it everyday

  • I'm not saying it's aliens, but.. It's aliens.

  • @TheThrashoholic Extraterrestrial or extradimensional beings. Could also be the nature Earth or the Universe. It is affecting us somehow without a doubt.

  • I've heard it very loud, but I just ignored it. It's a very eerie sound that tends to get louder when the day turns to night. It appeared to me randomly, sometimes I couldn't hear it, sometimes I could. I live in southern Finland.

  • this hum come out of my ass when i fart

  • The hum is due to the awakening in our dna due to cosmic rays from cygnus, a star in between supernova and black hole. google it. I believe the rays or the christ light, is the cause of leaps in evolution and periods of mass enlightenment for humanity. I hear it constantly and arent we all becoming more aware? Of a quickening like the climax of the scene is approaching? FYI mostly my opinion..

  • Fuck, the, adds, IM NEVER GOING TO DFS NEVER!!!

  • used to hear wierd noises like that when i was a kid... lol..

  • Yikes! I really thought it was just tinnitus!

    I've experienced this for years!

  • I think my tinitus is blocking the sound from that hum.

  • It's the sound of way too much technology, I would think it's electricity that causes this phenomena. What would be the point of the government doing this on purpose? God damn, conspiracy theories are so asinine.

  • i dont hear a hum i hear a railroad train everynight and there no railroad trains near me

  • I wonder how much HAARP knows about this.

  • @TechnoManiac2 It has NOTHING to do with HAARP I PROMISE you.

  • @WorldwideWakeupCall How do you now that??? HAARP sends frequencies and the most plossible reason for the hum is, that it is a ver low frequency or isnt it?

  • @xtremelycra2i PLEASE just trust me on this one. I know what it was built for and how it works and although I know what it CAN do there are many Amateur Radio Operators out there monitoring every output or transmission from HAARP. Check out HAARP Moonbounce in my Astronomy Playlist. HAARP listens to the "Northern Lights" as well.

  • @TechnoManiac2 HAARP doesn't know anything.

  • blood flow????????

  • Stick your fingers in your ears fairly hard and you'll hear the hum

  • Baffles Scientists, that was not surprising...considering everybody knows that science can be bought. =/

    Like, like, like the presentation! 9/10

    "(I held back a point b'cause it wasn't my idea)"

  • Wondering if it's just the same kind of thing that we hear when we put our ear next to a seashell? Our ear catches sound in a similar way, so it might be a similar effect. Like an echo.

  • I hear it when I fall asleep, Sometimes It sounds like a train chugging across open track. I always thought that was awesome as a boy, but now it's starting to get annoying.

  • I actually have a phobia of the hum.

  • The Hum? Okay, I have no problem believing that it exists, but I highly doubt the government is behind it all. I think that it simply has something to do with signals from antennas or televisions, etc .

  • Can't tell if trolling...or just stupid.

  • I hear the hum and I was born in1997...

  • I hear it when it is quite

  • That's just people relentlessly talking about the secret gay-bars in Washington...

    They go-on & on & on & on & on & on & on & on & won't STFU about-it...

  • I hear this 24/7, when I sleep and when I wake. Always thought everyone could hear it until just now...

    Dunno why anyone would kill themselves over it though, it's not that bad, except for the occassional times when it gets louder, like it's coming towards me.

  • I have tinnitus, its like a constant background high pitch noise which grows loudest at night (almost imperceptable by day), or when I'm half asleep. However, for a short time, of about 2 weeks, I heard another sound, just like The Hum, it often overpowered the usual tinnitus, I found no source, it was constant around my room. It doubt it had any paranormal sources though, as it meant nothing to me.

  • Try spending a lot of time hearing loud noise and then go to a very quiet place, you will hear (the hum).

    Most likely this is just variations in peoples ears and the diferent ways they are affected by noises or ambient pressure (weather).

  • Blue Beam Project ...

  • Killing Joke : The Hum (1982)

    /watch?v=bbkzX5e6hHs

  • IT's all from the Government... wasn't too hard to figure out...

  • TaoSss

    

  • I heard this all the time when I lived in Utah. It was pretty damn annoying. I don't hear it as much here in South Korea.

  • I hear the hum. But it's not just hearing it, it's feeling it - like vibrations you can feel eminating from the bottom of your feet and upwards. It's often accompanied by ringing in one or both ears. Sometimes it makes me extremely ill (sudden on-set of hot flash, nausea, headache, dizziness), and on several occasions, it's immediately followed by a breif power outage in my town & the surrounding towns. I've called power companies afterwards & they never know what caused the outage.

  • I can hear this as well sometimes. My professor said it's called "the sounds of silence" if you stop and analyze for a moment, their are hundreds of different types of waves circling us all around. If you stop and listen closely for a second and concentrate, you can hear it. Some people can just pick up on it more than others.

  • tinnitus? I have it.

  • @BrianCardova he said that even if you can hear the hum you don't have tinnitus, but he said it weird he pronounced it tinnytus

  • I can hear this sometimes.

  • I'm happy I can't hear this.
