Krakatoa Eruption Real Sound (1883)

yes

[personifulsob]

Now imagine randomly hearing this 2000x louder when taking a lovely stroll in the park.

[axkvs]

When you realize a 1883 microphone has a better quality than that one kid's mic

[mustard]

Fun fact: This was so damn loud that thr British in India thought it was some ship who fired their guns as a signal of emergency

[mr.morningstar]

This sound had such tremendous force and was so loud that this sound circled the globe 4 times.

[Phantanatomy]

Actual audio of me dropping a spoon at 3 in the morning

[poweroffriendship.]

_"Captain Magma, get him angry and he's bound to erupt!"_

*"KRAKATOA!"*

[jonnyboy]

I was expecting to just hear squidward saying: “Krakatoa” really loud

[NeveragainNeveragain]

It’s disturbing how if you were close to the volcano and outside, you could’ve died based off of how much decibels it was.

The First Earrape in human's history.

Props to the man who recorded this, survived the explosion and managed to publish it on Youtube after 135 years.

[thanosforpresident]

Jokes aside, RIP to the thousands of people who died in the eruption.

[MeneerMattie]

Just remember, this is the sound of a single Indonesian island splitting into multiple islands.

[mayor]

Probably the most cursed sound I’ve ever heard, both with and without context

[the_venomous_viper]

Memes aside, imagine hearing something like this and finding out it was on the OTHER SIDE OF THE FUCKING PLANET

[Shh]

imagine if you put this as your ringtone. it will freak everyone beside you

[bread]

To all the people saying it is fake, sound recording equipment was invented in 1877, 6 years before this.

sorry for causing ww3 in the comments :(

[jakolayxd]

It is absolutely terrifying to think this only happened 138 years ago.

[rapid_meme_god]

Fun fact:

The eruption of Krakatoa is the loudest sound ever recorded, peaking at approximately 180 *DECIBELS*, which could be heard from 5, 000km (3, 000mi) away

[hllfire]

And still... This was supposedly recorded from to many kilometers away.💀

[FastCarsNoRules]

The world's first recorded ear rape.
