Human skulls vary in size enough that the resonant frequency would likely vary considerably across people. Also, the surrounding skin as well as the brain itself would have a damping effect. See here.

You can kill a person by shooting them in the head.

Is this bit of information going to send me to jail?
 
Wow! I've learned a whole lot in this thread, as well as in the Physics thread! I love it.

I wish I had seen the Mythbuster episode. 🙁

LOL. I like how you are "witholding" this valuable information from us and the first sentence in your post is about how you can pop open a chicken skull with the right frequency. It doesn't take much to figure out what you can do with human skull.

Excuse my ignorant question, but if that's the case, does that mean that thise method is used to get rid of people, especially in war?

Don't bother singing ... for I'm afraid your voice alone would kill me....

Didn't Nikola Tesla say he knew the resonating frequency of the earth and he could destroy it on a whim?

IIRC, it was more like he said that if he could figure out the resonating frequency of the earth, and if he could create
a large enough shockwave at the same freqency it could shatter the earth.

The problem is that the earth has a variable resonance. And the layers of differing materials could also have
a dampening effect.
