LOUD!

B1-B on the flight line doing engine tests. Holy hell that hurt for days even with earplugs and me being about 1/2 mile away, but behind it.

Loud? The look of death when my wife sees my newest gun purchase……and she doesn’t say a word.

Cher & Village people concert at the world arena. Too painful to enjoy. Never went back to the arena fir any reason.

The two loudest sounds in the world are the BANG that shoulda went *click*, and the *click* that shoulda went BANG.

50lbs of tannerite gets attention.

I set off an oxy acetelyne balloon once without ear pro, that was the last time too.

In my youth I attended a few concerts, got front row center.
LOUD enough LONG enough it was actually painful.

The voices in my head

I need to go back to Top Fuel Dragsters.

Anything that rattles your eyeballs and shakes the atmosphere for a several seconds is pretty loud.

A woman scorned.

And then what Flogger said. Went on a blind date to a drag race once. Bad idea. Neither one of us heard anything the other said at the race. Ended well though. Nobody could remember anyone managing to bring their date to spend their 21st birthday night in the barracks at CGAS San Francisco before. (Not like it sounds, they were two man rooms. Except that night. Only one man in the room that night.)

I'll second the B1B
