The Controversial Sound Only 2% of People Hear [video] (youtube.com)

I have had my ears checked with x-rays and ultrasound many times because of the constant infuriating noise in my head.

I have perfect hearing and no head trauma.

I always though that Tinnitus was a high pitched ringing sound but the audiologist explained that tinnitus sounds are very varied.

The noise I experience is like the low whirring of a central heating system always on in the background sometimes with a regular beating sound very like the low bass in a song.

Over time I noticed that it was the clenching of my jaw, especially when under stress or worrying about stuff, that was the main cause of the sounds.

Laying in bed at night I can now stop the noises by relaxing my jaw with my mouth open while I am trying to fall to sleep.


Where is this over half hour long video can I hear the sound?


Very start, 1:34


You mean when the guy says "It's intense" ? I was hoping there'd be a 10 second window or so where I can listen to the sound without any distractions.
