OK - I am 45 and have been to much more than my fair share of gigs etc etc. I was at my sisters recently and she had a pest control device. It works by doing a frequency sweep.
After hearing said device, I was initially shocked. I remembered hearing much higher frequencies in a Physics experiment at school. Then I blew on my nose with my fingers in and relaxed a bit. I could definately hear higher than I could initially.
However, I am still curious. When I was sixteen, I could hear up to 16-17 Khz.
So I am going to find some hearing test software and see how high I can hear now. When I find some, I'll post what I can hear up to. It'd be cool if others could try the same s/w, post their age and what they can hear up to. 1st law - be honest. Lying is pathetic on this one.
It's all been done before. But it'd be interesting for members to try I am sure.
So - are you a deaf git? Or not? Watch this space!
