Instant DEATH by Rock and Roll

[MrSandMan]

I'm watching MANanswers on SpikeTV right now and they have an interesting question, "can high volumes of rock and roll kill you" and, if so, "how loud must the rock and roll be" in dB?

Here are examples to put this into perspective; your girlfriend or wife yelling at you is approx 70dB, a rock concert is 110dB, and a gun shot from 3-feet away is about 150dB.

Your thoughts?

i love that show and i think i saw that one or maybe myth busters did something i dont remember...but i do believe if u have enough decibals that it can kill u

[MrSandMan]

Yeah, they said at 200db will be loud enough to burst blood vessels in the brain, thus, killing you. Not something you'd normally think about, which is why it's so fascinating.

there was this one show on there called 1000 ways to die i believe and it had some pretty weird stuff on there...i don't want to say it was awsome because some people actually die those ways i would say its more interesting than anything

[MrSandMan]

Oh yeah, that was on last night. I caught the tail end of it. Looked interesting, indeed.

Ppfft... my snare drum resonates at around 200db :w:
