I have suffered from tinnitus (which is thankfully clearing up as my ear heals) and I have experienced such sounds. Not the actual pressure waves, but noises in the ear which emulate such noises to a certain extent.
- ObsoleteNerd 8y agoI've had severe tinnitus for over a decade, and know exactly what you're talking about. It's not just an audio tone, but I very much get these "pressure" feelings inside my skull that line up with the audio tone getting louder at times (the perceived volume of my tinnitus tone gets louder and softer depending on the day, tiredness, weather, etc). I don't know how this could possible be related, as I've never heard of groups of people getting sudden tinnitus together, but I do agree with you that the explanation sounds similar to what I experience.
- Digit-Al 8y agoI wasn't suggesting that they all had tinnitus. The parent comment mentioned not hearing of anything natural that could cause such a buffering effect. I was pointing out there are natural phenomena that can cause such effects.
