The firefighters in this region are clicking on a “test” button, so sure they, are 11 seconds to late. Where I live (Dordrecht) was it 50 seconds to late, but they have to select the whole south-Holland region 😂
No it's one of the weirdest things in dutch society. Every first monday of the month at 12 this sounds throughout the entire country. It is meant as a running test if god forbid war breaks out, but if you play this sound for decades, every month, to 18 million people, it'll generate enough fear to have some tangible social effect as well, which shouldn't be discounted. In an age where people get increasingly isolated and distrustful of the outside world, I think it might be time to drop the habit.
glad they're still operating, thought it was dead/scrapped. TG it isn't
Wow this is great HM 👌👌👌👌👌
Coool
They are 11 seconds late. Or its taking 11 seconds for the signal yo get to your camera.
I don’t really know tbf 🤔
They are probably late. The testing is not always exactly at 12:00.

@@youtuberuben1043 Where I live (Gorinchem) it mostly takes like 20-40 seconds for the system to activate lmaooo
What’s the signal there using?
I don’t really know to be fair, I think it’s a custom one 🔊
They are using “Waarschuwing” tone here
@@clockstudio174 Thanks! 🔊😁
Yo that’s creepy dude!
is this siren used for weather warnings seems scary
From what I've picked up, this is their "General Alarm" signal although I have seen it labeled as their"Air Raid" signal too.
