As somebody who frequently experiences sensory overload (and cannot handle noises AT ALL unless it’s music i put on myself) I feel the pain watching this video
As a guy suffering from hyperacusis I can honestly say this: I wouldn't last even 10 seconds in that room; it would be a living hell in there with even just the voices and if the music was turned on I'd be running out shaking and crying in pain. If someone were to lock the door I would 100% be severely traumatized from the experience.
This brought back some interesting memories. I burst both of my eardrums, however it did not hurt afterwards. When we arrived in the doctor’s office, there was a set C of headphones to test my hearing, but when we told him what happened he just said “most kids would be kicking and screaming in pain” and the one thing I said as my parents and my doctor looked at me was, “I-I CAN’T HEAR ANYTHING!!!” As I sat there quietly doing Absolutely NOTHING!
I spent 10 minutes in the bell tower of a Cathedral which has one of the largest sets of church bells in the World. I was stood a few 3 metres way from one of the smaller bells and the full set of 12 were ringing. I had noise cancelling headphones on to protect my ears otherwise I would have suffered significant damage to my hearing. However, the physical trauma to my body was still significant. A church bell is shaped like the human rib cage and has multiple harmonics. This means that my rib cage was resonating in harmony with one of the bells and that was painful.
And this is just one of the many reasons why I haven’t stepped into a cathedral or a big megachurch in years. Ugh! I like bells, but god damn, do they HAVE TO be so bloody loud and everything!?

I like your content man, keep posting those creative stories. I'm really looking forward to when you write a book or make a film/anime, i'll be first buyer/watcher
I guess it's not the same because of the cool techy stuff in the room but I play in a string orchestra and it definitely gives me sensory overload just like this when everyone is practicing at once
It's definitely harder in the worlds hardest room (if you ask me like you did at the beginning) I love silence and I would always choose a silent room over a loud one (depending on what's going on of course)
Honestly, being in the worlds quietest room sounds like a dream since i'm super sensitive to noises, though- I am scared of the dark so that may be a deal breaker lol
On percentage basis, I feel I could withstand the loud room over the quiet room. While they would both drive me insane, I think I could vie for the world record in the loud room, and totally tap out of the quiet room. Now I am oh so curious.
Agh! I now remember these types of rooms! My community college has a few of these types of rooms (although very small) and even standing in the hallway surrounded by these small rooms (that had a big glass window or two) was a total nightmare if you were waiting for your choir classes to start in the big choir classroom.
For me, it’s for sure be the quietest room. I have misophonia so certain noises like mouth noises or minor noise drive me insane and torture me. I’d rather be inundated with constant loud noise than sporadic noise or my own bodily noises.
Every sound has vibrations. The reason why you needed to move while hearing noise was to reflect or bounce off the vibrations so your body would not be as effected if you sat and absorbed the vibrations . Loud noises can damage the body and surrounding ecosystems such as a motor boat in the ocean . Adjusting sound to meet the criteria is very important to avoid harming the body.
It’s been my dream to be able to blast extreme metal in a room like this. Just loud, and pure armageddon in my ears. I mean, idk what it’s actually like to be in this room so I couldn’t say for certain, but something I’d like to do now.
Here's the huge issue. Like the video showed, you'd probably bail out as soon as the beat dropped unless you had a song with a softer intro. To put it in perspective, metal music blasting, could literally cause your eardrums to explode right when the drop hits. Even if you had it at a manageable volume, the fact that metal music looms on one chord, with the reverb, it'll sound just like one sustained tone. Blast that and you could end up in the hospital or worse...dead.
I hate anyone that even mentions the word. Because usually it falls into the background and I can forget that I even have it, but when someone says Tinnitus.. well yeah, it's there and it's annoying af
Same. The loud one and the quiet one. I feel the loud one would make mine worse my right ear does it alot. Even though ive always kept good care of my ears have listened to music at low volume etc. Meanwhile my sister blasts metal in her car full volume and has hearing as clear as the sky. Tf
Howdy sleepyhead 😂❤Goodness I don’t know how you did it Ryan, I definitely think the loudest room is worse than the quiet room lol 😂 but I guess idk 🤷🏻♀️ unless I actually tried it!!!! I love your videos, you’re hilarious 😂
The thing with the loud room is that it causes every sound produced to overlap repeatedly at various increments....resulting in auditory chaos. The issue with the quiet room is that I would be able to hear my ears ring.
this room is basically how i feel in loud rooms. i have possible autism and anxiety (getting tested when i meet my counselor:)) whenever im in loud rooms its always overstimulating and overwhelming and it causes MANY panic attacks
The reverb room is kind of a good metaphor when you think about it. When the music enters the chamber, it goes in a beautiful sound revered for generations and eventually becomes corrupted and distorted into this awful husk of its former self. It’s a perfect metaphor for the combine.
The fact that I can’t actually hear how loud this is, is making me believe it sounds like having a guitar amp right besides your ear while attending a death metal concert.
Me as a sound tech student, knowing it's actually called a reverb chamber and that it's used to test the sound absorption of a material with other cool things. 🧙♂️Finally my knowledge is not useless, it's culture time boiz (but I didn't know someone would be crazy enough to actually remain inside it while they blast the sound lmao).
Ryan: After an intense google session, I found that chamber music is simply the classics. Me: Well technically you’re right, but it’s not just the classics. It’s classical music played by a small group of musicians.
As someone who has anxiety I would probably have a full on panic attack 🥲 I dont blame him for leaving after 11 minutes, I would’ve left after 3 minutes LMAO
So this was the most annoying video ive ever enjoyed sitting through. I was constantly turning my volume up and down 😄....loud room scenes too loud, then quiet scenes too quiet. Idk who said what but it was annoyingly awesome.
Being in the world's quietest would drive me nuts too because my own thoughts is very loud. The world's loudest room would be even worse because when something is that loud I can't even function, that's why I don't like going to concerts, I start panicking. I would last hours in the quiet room, but I would last not even 30 seconds in the loud room
I use to live in an apartment like this, where you could hear a fork hit a plate 10 feet below you downstairs. Everything in that building was so loud.
He made the mistake to sit the entire time. Use the music to your advantage and dance to it, because sitting and hearing loud music is in my opinion worse than dancing to it while it has the same volume. (This is coming from a guy who listens to death metal on full volume with headphones, because I find it to be relaxing and calming having someone scream into my ear and making it sound like music.)
Those EV ZLX-15P speakers are no joke. We use them in the film industry to playback music the actors are listening to in clubs or whatenot. I own two and most of the time we only use one on set. They are crazy loud so I don't blame you for being miserable with multiples playing even though I don't know how high they were turned up.
Yeah... in this room I may play heavy metal (e.g. the day the earth shook) with an acoustic setup (double bass, 2steel guitars, normal voice (that gonna be heard like a growl) and Cajun) with forcedly soft touch (pp dynamics), and hearing it at a Manowar concert’s volume without any amplification except than the acoustic reverb itself!
One time my brother was seeing how loud my little brother talked when he was being somewhat loud, and I'm pretty sure he said it was 80 decibels so... Maybe I could survive this.. I would hate it though.
The first time I learned that your rib cage can vibrate is when I was a lil kiddo maybe 5 or 7 yo’s and my parents brought me to my great grandfathers birthday party and they had a dj that had surround sound speakers so even though the sound was regularly loud to others,since I was a lil kiddo it was extremely loud and I could feel the floor vibrate
