A bird found in the Amazon has shattered the record for the loudest call, reaching the same volume as a pneumatic drill. The white bellbird, which lives in the mountains of the north-eastern Amazon, was recorded at 125 decibels (dB), three times louder than the next bird in the pecking order, the screaming piha

That had to be the most digital sounding natural noise in the world
He has escaped from the matrix
This bird sounds like a very overtuned Yamaha DX7.
True
Not even close. I've heard even more digital, even futuristic sounding bird noises deep in the Amazon. Singapore has one too
@@Blablablarandomguy Thanks Jai very cool
The first person to hear it in real life probably did not know it was a bird
Pretty much anyone who doesn’t know this bird exists
"dafuq was that, some sort of bellbird??"
Someone would’ve thought it was Siren Head because of that
@@Zack_Zander they probably dont know Sirenhead thing existed because uhh the first guy tk hear it probably was before internet existed
That’s just an alien device designed to look like a bird. Sending back reports saying life won’t be around too much longer on this rock
my friend put this bird on his shoulder. miss him so much.
He can't hear youu
Your friend or the bird?
😂😭
Don’t be horrible! Sorry your friend is gone x❤
@@ibiza_andytf you mean “don’t be horrible”?
If a bird sounds like this imagine what their ancestors sounded like💀
Probably not as loud.

LOL thank you for my smile. 😊
Amen. You sure got that right on.
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. EVERYONE GO INDOORS AND MAKE YOURSELF SAFE FOR 24 HOURS. ALL WEAPONS CLASS 3 AND BELOW ARE PERMITTED. MURRICCAAA
Imagine evolving a skill like this just to announce you're single.
Amazing that we're not the only species to complain loudly about being single.
Bold of you to assume I haven't already.
It’s the human equivalent to shouting “I’M A VEGAN”!
You mean like instagram??
MochaWaifu We already have. It’s called the internet
Been working with birds for around a decade. That is the most unique sound I have ever heard an animal make let alone a bird.
can we talk about that weird... skin(?) dangling from its beak too?
@@quickstep2408yes that had me wondering too😹😹😹
I mean you should've expected this the lyre (I hope spelt that right) bird can mimic sounds perfectly, not to mention how parrots a crows can mimic people's voices
Try looking up a Montezuma Oropendola
@@quickstep2408 that's the antenna
I was expecting an obnoxious scream. Instead we got a starship space alarm.
The first humans to hear this bird must've been shook
Duh Doy lmfaoooooooooooooooooooo
Legit it's unlike anything else they would have heard before. To me it sounds like a nuclear related warning alarm idk
Your pfp is an accurate recreation of that occurence
Yes, that is generally the reaction to having your eardrums explode.
There ears would actually start to bleed
Can you imagine an entire flock of these flying above your house
I cant-
Or colonizing your home as their nest.
Please give me a flock of these birds instead of 1 noisy motor rider.
At 3am
That called a f-35 taking off
sounds like a hunger games sound effect lol
Why are you here 😂
Sounds like the sound that plays for things like weather warnings on a storm radio
How can something so small produce such a loud sound fascinating
*pushes remote to find car* Aye yes, I parked in that tree over there.
FTW
No wait. Thats actually a genius strat
😅😅😅😭😭😭😭
I bet not many people got it xD
Yeah I don’t get it
That can explain why people think they can hear alien spaceships.
@Matt S yeah...we get it
@Matt S .....yeah
Bruh
DAT things tongue looks like an alien
extraterrestrial birb
A prehistoric-looking bird with a futuristic-like call, i love It!
If I knew what a pneumatic drill sounds like, I would've been very amazed.
I looked it up, the bird is about the same (if not a little louder) as a plane taking off
pneumatic drill doesn't sound anything like the bird, but it is loud,,, not 125db loud though.
Nothing is more seductive than the sound of industrial alarm sirens
OMFG I ROTATING ON THE X AXIS
Sirenhead's little feathered friend.
yeah
本当だと思って明るい日が見えたけど空は灰色だった \( ͡👁️ ₒ ͡👁️)/
that's why they're called sirens

The perfect gift for that special someone.
Belbird, the Metal Scream Pokémon, Steel/Flying type, its ability is Soundproof, its moves include Supersonic, Hyper Voice, Synchronoise and Metal Sound, evolves from Skarmory via Dawn Stone, has a rivalry with Exploud as their loud noises drown each other out, and this is its cry :) Due to its keen eyesight and loud, high-pitched metallic cry, Belbird is often used in place of a security alarm, and it can even fight off intruders using only its deafening screams. However, despite its strength, it is unpopular for use in battles between trainers, since without ear protection, its loud voice can damage the ears of nearby humans and even other Pokémon. Yes, I am a huge nerd lol. But you can't tell me that sound wouldn't fit right in as a Pokémon's cry.
Or maybe it should be some kind of special trade evolution between Skarmory and Chatot 🤔 Idk
This sounds so prehistoric and supermodern at the same time!
That's so accurate.
I imagine it’s because of the high overtones. It creates just a few sine waves, which nowadays reminds people of digital noise. It also reminds people of old instruments that only made one note and its overtones.
There is no such thing as prehistory

Have you ever heard a Flicker screaming right next to your head? Ear piercingly loud! One was in a tree on a branch next to my head. He didn’t see me and I didn’t see him until SCREECH!! Beautiful bird with a loud scream just like the one in the video! Another thing the Flicker does is find a metal pipe, slide or chimney and rat-ta-tat on it so loud it’s deafening especially if you’re inside the house with the chimney! 🫨

This is crazy,imagine living back in ancient times & hearing this lol how would you describe it
Thats the coolest sound ive ever heard from an animal
I can't believe how alarm-like it is.
White Bellbird: "I can't believe how bellbird-like that alarm sounds.
makes me wonder if it heard that somewhere and is repeating it.
toby070 Sounds like a natural disaster alarm. Also, ya got 420 likes!
It’s almost alarming..
And that day, every other animal suffered from headaches. (The next day they all gathered & tried to find a way to turn it off)
Very electronic-sounding, I never imagined that a bird could produce a sound like that.
Many birds can mimic electronic sounds, I had one living in a tree near my place that would mimic a phone alarm, the different sounds they can make the more likely they are to get a mate, as it’s the female that chooses the male bird.
Nah mate it’s a drone. Lost connection to the cia, it’s sounding a recovery alarm
You should hear a Lyre bird!!!
@@M808B_Scorpion please tell me this is a joke
@@dragonlootz nah man there was a “bird” (drone) sounding its alarm outside my house so I shot it. Im confident It was calling an air strike on me. Obama built these things to spy on us and destroy those who don’t believe in Obama care (I don’t)
All US police cars should replace their current sirens with this sound.
It amazes me that after 30 years of living on the planet i still get to discover a completely new animal everytime o open my phone almost. where has this animal been all my life? You would sure think you'd hear about it.
“Grandpa, why are you hiding under your desk?”

Male bellbird: *fire alarm noises* Female bellbird: "That's hot!"

Yeah but i bet the male birds aren’t like “we males are so much louder than the females”, they probably just want to attract mates, unlike human males who need to feel superior at all times to be able to function. Human males are the only species with this need.
@@XxxX-wx3er human males don’t need to do that that’s just something men are taught because of society. Don’t be sexist. Sexism hurts men and women.

He does that noise to attract female species(facts)
Allow it man its a dread
The bird call is awesome, I’m just looking at the decorative chain appendage it has from its beak, it looks so cool
That’s not a bird, that’s a megaphone
if my nerves can speak, this is the sound it makes when i hit my elbow in a corner of something
sadly an elbow can sing looooonger😩
😂😂😂
Why.... why is that so accurate?
This is so accurate
What a Beautiful example of a metaphor
Why does it sound like a station anounces a train arriving.
Nice bear
This is were the sound originated in the very first place
Or maybe the station copied that from the bird
Well inside the speakers there is a bird that its programed to basicaly *scream* 50 seconds before the train arriving
Highly trained bellbirds
With a cacophony of a call like that it’s amazing Mother Nature hasn’t imposed a mass extinction on that species.
This bird deserves a band or an orchestra
Everybody gangster till the bird says: “Containment breached. Please follow the immediate evacuation procedure and find the nearest exit.”
Oof I wish more people could understand this besides me and a few others....
Underrated comment
Lol
Wow... Heard that in my head
Lol
Imagine if you just met this bird for the first time, and it starts to fly towards you. It lands on your shoulders gently and it starts to like you. Then all of a sudden it starts to open it's beak next to your ear.
that's a blown eardrum right there
RIP eardrums
Fatality, flawless victory
I would quickly grab the bird by the neck before it makes that sound.
That'll be a bird without it's head if that happens to me
Imagine living close to these birds - you wouldn't need an alarm clock.
The bird would've survived 2 seconds of the a quiet place apocalypse...
I like how that bird inhales the oxygen and realise it like cannon
What? Edit: I'm so dumb. I didn't realize that that's release.
I didn’t notice that! Thats cool.
I noticed it!
This comment is amazing
You mean "release". Not "realise". :p

It's pretty incredible that this bird, if close to you, can just casually ruin your hearing
I was testing my computer speaker (late at night) which weren't working. I was clicking on random videos on YT and trying to fix the speaker. The moment I clicked on this video the speaker became normal but they produced such loud sound that they again became dysfunctional. And because of loud sound, everyone in the building probably heard it!
Still quieter than my mom waking me up for school.
Asian moms
I dont go to school anymore, but i still have ptsd from it
@Rabbit Rat I am 26 my friend. I was just recalling my school days. Remember that everyone comes from different background and cultures. So, parents shouting at children may not be normal to some but in asian households it's quite common.

Why does this Bird Sound like it's been Autotuned?
Its nature's autotune
Imagine being a predator hunting your prey and this thing scares it off
This will probably scare off anything that has a brain
Assuming whatever's trying to catch it close, the sound would probably cause some hearing damage and probably stun whatever's attacking it long enough for the bird to fly away

It's echoes made it 10x more louder as well 😊
It's actually incredible the unique sounds animals make, yet when we try to recreate the sounds of animals that no longer exist they're always the typical roar or squawk. Yet we have birds like this that don't even squawk, they sound closer to a fire alarm than they do a bird. Could we ever have known this if this bird didn't exist and all we had were fossils?
Who knows what kinds of sounds pterosaurs made
what a fascinating concept!
A lot of it is lost to time, but there are some accurate recreations of sounds using recreations of vocal cords and respiratory systems! A lot of the sounds of prehistoric animals you see are generic foley work done by film producers.
Food for thought!

Are your ears okay
Bird casually screaming at 125 Decibels: *Pathetic.*
Your earphones did not reproduce 125 dB. That's just a recorded attenuated version. The live sound will be painful above 90 dB. 125dB is 2^5 = 32 times louder than 90dB. It can pierce your eardrum !
@@goognamgoognw6637 125 db can slightly hurt your ears, but not pierce your eardrum, don't forget that we made the db scale logarithmic because our hearing evolved in a logarithmic way, Although 125 db is 32 times louder than 90, our ears will only perceive it as 2 times louder. And 125 db is as loud as a rock concert. So there is no way it can pierce your eardrum, or we would have banned rock concerts long ago.
