This is Witchcraft

Brain stuff is amazing. You’ll need to push replay multiple time however it is really cool.
Good explanation as to why this happens at the end of the story. I advise playing the few second video several time to get the effect.

'Green needle' or 'brainstorm'? Hear the latest audio clip dividing the internet

Just like the great "Laurel or Yanny" debate of 2018, another viral audio clip has resurfaced that has the internet divided. Which one do you hear?

www.today.com

video with the woman is a better choice to play.

 

[DrMrLordX]

I don't get it. I don't hear any words at all.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

I don't get it. I don't hear any words at all.

I clearly hear whatever word I am looking at.
Eyes closed on the the twitter video I hear a little bit of both words but the work order can flip.
Completely crazy how our brains just fill in missing info to make everything work.

link to second story of Yanny vs Whatever name I forgot. I only hear Yanny.

 

[DrMrLordX]

All I hear is some weird noise.

 

[PowerEngineer]

Well, I certainly hear one or the other - but not necessarily the one I am looking at. What are the chances that this clip just randomly plays one or the other? 😏

 

[KidNiki1]

i only hear brainstorm. if i try real hard i can hear green storm. but there is no way that second word is ever needle to my ears.

 

[TheVrolok]

I can get brainstorm, green needle, and green storm, but unfortunately no brain needle.

Same, except for me I can get brain needle and not green storm.

nope, crazy isn’t it

 

[BudAshes]

How do you hear brainstorm from that? I vaguely hear something that ends in "eedle"

 

[Torn Mind]

Going in blind, I heard Green Needle.

But yes, once I intentionally thought "Brainstorm", I did hear brainstorm.

I tried to think of other words like sex, death, Mariahand I hear "Green Needle" or just "needle" with "Green" not fully intelligble.

This is with my mom blasting a story about the past about BS church people in the local Chinese church(stealing a bunch of meat 18 years ago still stings) in the background, so yes, I am partially distracted.

So, sound version of the "duck-rabbit"? I saw only duck at first and it TOOK A WHILE to see a rabbit.

 

[Captante]

I for one have zero interest in experiencing a "brain-needle" ... unless maybe it's in the hands of a neuro-surgeon during a medical emergency!

the box is from a toy the said “brain storm”
Interesting how something with similar sounds waves (not necessarily sound) that is fuzzy enough causes your brain to fill in missing information to help process it.
This is what I find so crazy about it.

 

[Torn Mind]

Now I'm hearing grain needle.
Yeah...just like the freaking duck-rabbit...

Did a couple more tests and I found that if I have the tv on in the background I hear brainstorm, if it's completely quiet I hear something that ends with "eedle"

 

[pcgeek11]

Clearly Green Needle 99.9% but once it seemed to say Brainstorm with eedle on the end.

 

[nakedfrog]

I can get brainstorm, green needle, and green storm, but unfortunately no brain needle.

I can get all of them pretty easily. Neat.
It was pretty easy for me to go between Laurel and Yanny too, when that was the thing.

We need some English as a second language people to tell us what they hear.
Also some proper English speakers from the UK.
I wonder if the result is different for them?

i have a feeling that a lot of it is due to the age of the listener as well. its pretty well known science that as we age, our range of hearing is affected.

for example, both of my teenage kids could hear needle, but i could not.

there are frequency generator apps or videos that you can use to test this out. eg:

hmm makes sense, I do have excellent hearing for my age.

 

[nakedfrog]

I could hear needle, but couldn't really hear any frequencies over 12,000 (and am over 40)

 

[Fritzo]

I heard "Brain Needle"

 

[JulesMaximus]

I hear “lickmyballs”.

 

[Fritzo]

I hear “lickmyballs”.

You always hear that though...

 

[Ferrari355]

First I heard green needle. Then I listened again with my eyes closed and heard brainstorm
