For the longest while I used this to tell my friends in high school I had a mini-superpower. Because I knew when there was a television on in the house, and somehow none of them heard it.
There is an old telly in my apartment, I turned it on to test it last week and heard the tone again, must have been like 18+ years since I last turned one of those on.
It never gave me headaches but I definitely heard (and still hear it) all the time.
- knuthsat 6y agoYep. I experienced this too. My left ear hears 22kHz to this day and I could hear even even plasma TVs.
- sokoloff 6y agoMy hearing is not even that great in some ways, but I can easily hear the old CRT whine. It blows my mind that not everyone can hear it.
- werdnapk 6y agoI thought this was my superpower too as a kid. I don't really notice it anymore with all the digital equipment, but analog was noticeable.
