Have you ever wondered what is the loudest sound humans have ever made? I did, so I made a video about it. But then I kept going and well... it all gets pretty complicated.

"the big bang was the ultimate bass drop"

Best quote ever

Have I interrupted the orange pfp group meeting?
i also watched the video
@@jennatolls6121 lol
"The big bang was the ultimate bass drop...." ....you deserve millions of viewers Joe. You've entertained me for hours and hours. Thank you for all the effort you put into your content!
I laught more with Joe than i do with most of comedians
"If a tree falls in a forest and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?" Is like saying "If I don't see it, it can't see me"
And it's kind of narcissistic to think, that something happening only matters if there is a human to "witness" it...!
No, it is like saying "Sounds are interpretations of vibrations by our brain, and without a brain interpreting them, they are simply vibrations". The same way colors are interpretations our brain makes of different wave lengths of light and are not a property of reality. No listening, no sound.
"we peaked at giant sloths, everything's been downhill from there"
- Joe Scott 2020-
I once saw the skeleton of a giant sloth in the denver museum of natural history and it was the coolest thing I have ever seen. I immediately became very depressed I couldn't own one.

This earned my like when Joe mentioned that the planet's evolutionary history peaked at giant sloths
We can thank the giant sloths for avocados.
I saw a skeleton of a giant sloth in a museum once. It was HUGE! I wouldn’t want to come across a live one! Yikes!

Call me crazy but I actually enjoyed their second album "Geothermal Peristalsis" very much.
Nice job, Joe! You have a gift for making hard concepts easier to grasp.
OK, I might be an incurable dork but I love the conversation with the tree. Trees and plants may not possess sentience to the best of our understanding, but they DO indeed sense things. I am convinced that like the infinitesimal band of light visible to humans, so too is our true understanding of the tiny sliver of the Universe in which we live. Just saying... Nothing but love
"Face Hole" Now THAT is a great name for a band!
Eugenics is an excellent case in point of how something can be totally logical, but also be wrong (at least morally and spiritually).
"Tectonic Anus" yet another masterful possible band name. You are on FIRE, Joe!
In my old age, I find that I am turning into a Giant Sloth (pun intended).
That black hole collision is wicked cool footage. This is the kind of thing that when you bring it together in your inimitable way, makes your channel truly compelling (IMHO).
When I was a kid, the comet was 65 million years ago. Now it's 66 million years. Way to make me feel old, Scott. ಥ_ಥ

“You thought your poop just vanished..... there’s a whole science behind that toilet”. I laughed out loud!
I served in the US Army, Field Artillery branch. I had a 208 mm (8 inch) artillery round go off about 30 yards from me. I had a crew of six guys and most of us were in the open, not hunkered down behind any kind of cover. There was shrapnel flying all around us, yet somehow, miraculously, no one was hurt. But the sound was incredible. We could feel the shock wave flow through us a split second before the sound hit. We were all wearing hearing protectors (mil speak for ear plugs), yet the noise alone almost took us out. Tinnitus for weeks. That's the loudest thing I have ever experienced.
You had that tree... stumped.

What do your trees sound like?
@@jesselejarzar5114 Cherry Garcia, of course.

I need a T-shirt that says “the Big Bang is the ultimate bass drop”
12:30 I just want to say that "Toba" it's a slang in portuguese for anus, so i think he's got a point about that
Do you use it as an insult, like "asshole"?
@@PinataOblongata If you really want to, i mean, it's not so offensive as you may think
i feel ashamed of myself because i didn't realize it until you mentioned it
Lol now I can cuss people out and some of the words don't have to be English
@@PinataOblongata probably not. I would assume it's more like "culo" in Spanish which is also anus.

Describe The Big Bang in 4 words: “The Ultimate Bass Drop.” -Joe Scott
I mean if you created the universe what sound would you make
Quick note: Krakatoa is actually not active. The active peak is really Anak Krakatao. Which just means ‘child if Krakatoa’. It is technically a whole different peak.
PBS did a three-hour special on the volcanic island in Sunda Strait. Absolutely fascinating stuff!
the big bang literally sounds like a 50's Sci Fi low budget movie studio's fictionalized interpretation of what the big bang would sound like.
🤣 You're so right
I was thinking of the THX logo on movies lol
It sounds like a teleport fade in from that era also.
I swear I once heard that sound coming from a Taco Bell restroom.
Seriously though. Its the sound of an old school tube television being turned on. Remeber if you're old like me how the picture would take a sec to come on and it would come on from a central point of light. It kinda makes me think the big bang was just someone starting up the simulation. 2020 is when some teen started playing with it and ramped everything up to 11

That's what we like about you Joe; you're down to earth, no funny-business, no clowning around, just straight, dead-serious talk. Keep up the excellent work. ^_^ (not a dig, I adore your sense of humor)
For the longitudinal wave, it’s hard not to look at it like a linear graph, but the up and down part is amplitude (density) and the linear is time. It’s the same idea as turning the density graph sideways. Minor detail, but as a former audiology student, I just had to say something. Also the actual physics of sound (amplitude, sine, frequency, reverb) is actually really cool and would be a good topic for a future video!

Hi Joe,
First off - I want to say that recently I came across your channel and I love the work that you do! I now listen to your videos to and from work everyday. Whether I agree, disagree, like or dislike your videos doesn't matter because at the end of each I have learned something profound....and it makes my brain think lol. I recommend your videos to anyone looking for something thought provoking, yet VERY supported and informative. At first I wanted to ask (and was hoping) to see your insight as to why music is so important to human beings - being that it has historically evolved with our species, and is such a tremendous part of our society. But something happened today that has been really troubling to me. Someone I work closely with was found dead in the bathroom at my job. But that isn't even the troubling part....After learning of his death, I now cannot remember his face. The same thing happened when my grandfather died, as well as a close friend years back. The brain is extraordinary. Why does this happen? If the latter is too ambiguous, please consider my first thought. Thanks!
8:45 - Oh!! "Joe needs bigger _booms."_ like with an *m.*
See, I thought you said... uh..., y'know, nevermind - it's not important.
Me too lol.
OMG same 😂
The subtitles read as boobs

"...a tree that can sense and perceive things too."

Well he is about Dwarf sized and you know how much of a beef Gimli had with trees.
1:53 All this time I'm asking myself what Joe's neighbors must be thinking...
You make it fun to learn. You do your research. I'm enjoying it.
"OhMyGod!,... I'm talking to a tree!"
[yeah. And the tree's winning the argument, too.]
Being an audiophile, you've hit on a subject that is close to my heart. The research you must do is amazing. I'm not sure I can live without your videos anymore! God help me!
4:15 I thought it said "sound of a tomato" at the top of the list. I was like wtf is a sound of a tomato?? no wonder I cant hear it, a tomato tends to be pretty quiet 🤷

Bob from Veggie Tales would like a word.
Several years ago, the disused bank building next to my condo complex (down on Turtle Creek, Joe) was imploded for new development. They gave us all sorts of instructions of how to prepare for the sound and shock waves. I had fallen asleep reading the night before, but even on the far side of the complex, away from the demolition site, that s h t was LOUD. Brought me straight up out of my chair!
I havent seen a Joe vid with this many interesting facts since Lightning Rounds. Loved it. Really, really, really wish you did more of those Joe. Was literally why I subbed, though the regular great content is why I stay. Even one a month would be super dope bro.

That’s one of the funniest segments you’ve ever done before. Gotta do more of that, had me cracking up, and my little boy cracking up and going to our backyard to talk to a tree.

2) love the use of "face holes" at the beginning 😂😂

You have no idea how satisfying it is to invent a word and then see it come into somewhat common usage. First time you hear it on the radio you're pissed (son of a bitch stole my word). Then you start hearing it more and more. You start seeing in social media post. At some point you start thinking....I pulled that word straight outta my ass. I only used it around my friends. How the hell did it become....this?
easy, loudest sound ever would be dropping anything after 3am when everyone’s asleep.
I remember the trauma of taking an hour to manage a silent entrance into my parents home after a party only to find the noise of a bong at 4 am is really pretty damn deafening. I also tried it in the back yard and the bubbling made all the nearby dogs bark.

@Tamara K bro chill.i was just asking a question
I did read a great article about making a 1000dB sound. The sound was restricted to a short TWANG! on a Fender Stratocaster - in mono. The figures resulting in that 1-second guitar solo was absolutely crazy. The loudspeaker cone would travel at speed far exceeding the light and even if the energy in all stars in the universe were used, we still wouldn't get enuff power for the amp to produce that 1000dB twang.
I laughed at the intro even before the tree started talking to him. He got the cliche mannerisms of the documtary host nailed! 😂
Good job Joe!
0:02 *”Hey what’s up guys, it’s Scarce here.”*
I think the loudest sound ever made was when I clicked on a very vulgar Instagram video while forgetting my phone was connected to the car speaker. I was waiting for someone's Doordash order and just blasted vulgarity into the parking lot
Big Bang sound blew my mind. Very informative today, as usual,. thanks Joe
That opening was EPIC!
Joe... thanks for many laughs and showing your age... the “more you know” edit in was a trip right back to my childhood. 😂 love it!

You were lucky, that tree sounded mean enough to have drop a branch on you.
In Australia, trees commonly hide what's called Drop Bears (similar to a Koala Bear, just not as cute, and very 'ken scary!!) - these 'ckers drop from trees when a human tourist (they don't seem to bother us locals) walks by... they'll scratch the eyes out of a lady, and rip the testi... things from a bloke within milliseconds! - Joe's lucky he did the filming of this video in Texas, USA!
Good luck Joe... and I did hear you express a desire to visit Australia/New Zealand (NZ Drop Bears only attack female tourists) in the future - Don't, man... it's just not worth it, especially if you like trees.
i dont normally like your bits all that much (love the way you tell stories tho, so i love all your videos) but the talking tree bit was just hilarious
The BEST explosion is the cement truck from mythbusters.
"Hz. per second"
Hz. squared?
Joe, you should quickly look up Very Low Frequency Active Sonar by the US navy. Probably the loudest human made sound. In the region of 300 decibels. We pick it up on underwater microphone from the US navy NAVFAC Argentia in Newfoundland in the 1990s. The source was from a SURTASS ship near Australia.
"Sonar systems-first developed by the U.S. Navy to detect enemy submarines-generate slow-rolling sound waves topping out at around 235 decibels" www.scientificamerican.com/article/does-military-sonar-kill/

Tree: So how's quarantine treatin' ya, Joe?
Joe: 0:00 - 2:08
Loving it! Hyper-interesting and supremely well-presented as always. at 18:26, you say "Microscopic variations in air densities." In the 1979 movie, Alien, the science officer, Ashe explains the alien detector works on "micro-changes in air density." Later, Sigourney Weaver, as Ripley, while crawling through the ventilation ducts, says "Micro-changes in air density, my ass." Which HAS to be in the top ten of all movie quotes ever. Don't ever stop. All good wishes.
It is NOT the same!
Sound does make a microscopic TEMPORARY change on the air density as the "shockwave" of sound pass through it (but then it gets reverted back to normal).
-> The device detects PERMANENT changes in the air _viscosity_ (one of its key components being density), indirectly caused by the presence of living creatures.
It is implied that infrared radiation (body heat) & magnetic fields (heart pumping) is what it is actually detected [directionality], while the filtering of information is based on the analysis of the air in between the device and the creature [qualitativeness].
Thanks Joe. It would have been nice if you had mentioned the comet(s) Shoemaker-Levy 9 that crashed into Jupiter in 1994 creating fireballs the size of earth. And as an honourable mention the Tunguska explosion of 1908 that cut off trees at the base in a range of 40 kilometers.
at least once per video you make me laugh aloud. ty joe! 😊
