I was wearing noise canceling headphones.....

this realy works,
we're testing this at school.
only the point is.
no speakers is the same, you'll never stand right in front of both speakers.
so you will always hear something....
(sorry for my bad english)

Yes everybody this is all true. If anybody knows physics and more specifically waves. They would also know of something called destructive interference. Meaning when two opposite wave forms combine they cancel themselves out. With the indiana jones picture its the same idea assuming light is a wave the two electromagnetic waves cancel out. what bose does takes advantage of the sound leaking thrue the headphones there is a little mic on each headphone that takes that sound and reverses it 180.

Whoops, i mean the Bass gets VERY quiet :)

This works! I was skeptical, but i just tried it in audacity! It doesn't make it go dead silent, but all the mids and highs become VERY quiet and the bass is deadened some. I did find that even a TINY adjustment in speaker distance from your head (in relation to the other speaker) does in fact make a pretty significant difference in how well this works. I also tried the image thing in photoshop, it also works!
He's not bullshitting!

it worked! When you use headphones and bend them over so they both point to one ear and are really close, the music can still be heard (doesnt work perfectly) but its really quiet, when you move one headphone away, doesnt matter which one, its much louder! cool! lol @ the idiots that couldnt grasp this

All you have to do is bring your speakers together and point them at each other. Obviously you won't get perfect noise cancellation because the conditions aren't right for it, Minute changes in air pressure, signal noise along the speaker wires, surrounding objects, will bounce the sound differently and negate the effect
TL;DR: place speakers 4 inches apart, facing each other

PROFIT!!!!1!!!!111!

Right, the end result is that nothing is playing. When both the original file and the inverted file (both in mono) were added to the movie file, the computer saw that one would cancel out the other. Therefore, when you look at your music mixer, it's looking at the end result - the audio equivalent of the grey Indiana Jones picture. It doesn't really look like anything at all, much less a picture of Indiana Jones. Same holds true for the music.

Wow, you really are "peaceful", just as your screen name suggests. I'm telling you that as I created this video, which I did myself, I loaded two audio files into that sequence of dead silence. I thought I'd just be nice enough to clear up what seemed to be a little confusion, but if you don't believe me, I don't care. No one is making you watch this.

If you simply watched the video while wearing headphones, than no, it won't work at all because headphones don't allow for any amount of overlap. To get the full effect of this video, it's absolutely necessary that each ear hears both the left AND right channels at the same time.
