What "Other" sounds raise the hairs on the back of your neck??

[AMink]

When the teal are coming in from behind you, their wings sound like little jets. Then it's just too late to shoot!

 

[Tee]

The sound of a dog working up to/getting ready to ralph on the carpet. Sounds like they are bringing it up from the tip of thier tail! That one can wake me up out of a dead sleep.



Hmmmmm, Maybe I could get my alarm clock to sound like that and I wouldn't be late for work anymore

Hearing a rattlesnake 'buzzzzz' while I'm raking the yard is better than not hearing it. The last one I raked over remained asleep; too bad for it. Seeing a big 'S' curve in the water is about as chilling as hearing the buzz. When it swims with a fish in its mouth. . I have bad dreams.

Good sounds - the silence of an early morning, camping up in the Shenandoah mountains. Thunder from a big storm rolling over the Wyoming plains. The sound of my 10-year-old laughing.



Not-so-good sounds - the growl of a brown bear someplace outside the tent, while camping up in the Shenandoah mountains. The roar of a tornado rolling a half mile away over the Wyoming plains. My 10-year-old: "Daddy, I think I'm going to throw up!"

bobcat scream at about 2 in the morning ... that'll make you close the window!

 

[TORQUE THIS]

Hearing your neighbors car getting shot to hell at 4am with a . 357

 

[Bob Wagner]

Hearing your neighbors car getting shot to hell at 4am with a . 357

in pittsburgh? :-laf

 

[TORQUE THIS]

uhhh, no... :-laf out there they just squirt ketchup and relish...

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

with a . 357

Damn shame ... . I would use the . 500 Magnum :-laf :-laf







2broke2smoke- I know that one ALL TOO well. When I lived in VT I remember hearing what sounded like a miniature bear muttering to itself on cocaine. Sort of a higher pitched growl with a mouth full of marshmallow fluff.



Come to find out it was a bobcat in heat under our porch. It went on for three nites as there was a male that had found our dog food bin just at the end of the porch so he wasn't going anywhere any time soon as he had a mate and food as well as shelter. The racket they would make you would swear they were killing each other. Problem was our sheppard would go bezerk when they started and he knew not to mess with the big kitty with attitude (Found out the hard way 2400 dollars later) :-laf so he would not go outside.

 

[DKayser]

How about......

The sound of someone racking an 870 Remington in the dark?????????? Or that thump when the car hits the motorcycle ? I`ve heard both up close. DK.

Good Hair-Raisers

- the National Anthem

- intro drums to "Livin' After Midnight"

- the silky slither of lingerie sliding off a woman's skin

- fighter jets in afterburner

- the ripping buzzsaw noise of a Vulcan cannon

- your new baby's first cries of life

- "I now pronounce you man and wife"



Bad Hair Raisers

- dentist drill

- the fa-gwimpy pattery sound of MBA loafers approaching (cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST... ... )

- the plop of a huge grueling exam on the desktop

- "Dad, this is my boyfriend... "

- the slackjawed mumbling of the brother-in-law calling on the phone

- a gun cocking somewhere BEHIND you

- the rattle of papers as the doctor looks at your chart outside the door before coming in to tell you your diagnosis

- the sound of a CT-scan machine spinning up to speed while you lay there like a slug

- Banjo music and "You shore gots a purty mouf on you bowah!" :{ :-laf :-laf

- the ping of an easy-out snapping off in the block



Extremely Alarming Hair Raisers

- "Well, the news isn't good. "

- a jet engine spinning up while you are hiding in the intake asleep (prank actually played on a guy at an ANG base in Ohio)

- the loud slam-clack of somebody flipping a breaker in a nearby cabinet while you are rewiring a 440V conveyor panel

- "Honey, my mom needs to stay with us a while"

- "I'm from the gubmint, and I'm here to help. "

Taps at a military funeral. Amazing Grace on bagpipes.

 

[The patriot]

The sound of high voltage lines going phase to phase, especially when you've seen the outcome when a human body is involved.

That would do it for me.

Seen the results too.

 

[loncray]

Whitney Houston singing the National Anthem is a good one. So's the odd whop-whop sound of a Marine Osprey sliding around on hover overhead.

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

The sound of someone racking an 870 Remington in the dark?????????? .

Or a Mossberg 590 mariner with an ats shotforce system ... per say





LOL @ Mike ... "- the fa-gwimpy pattery sound of MBA loafers approaching the engineering department (cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST, cut-da-COST... ... )

[RankRam]

The late great Chris Ledoux singing Western Skies.

 

[AMink]

Years ago, I saw the Marine Corps Sunset Parade in Washington D. C. The sounds of the sabers and guns cutting through the air in perfect unison was something to hear.



How about Brett Favre saying "I might retire"? :{ Not a big Packers fan, but I hate to see guys that love the game and are damn good at it leave.

 

[Greenleaf]

I absolutely love... .



The start up of an Allison V1710 or a Pratt& Whitney R2800



Steam locomotive whistle



An idling steam locomotive as it creaks and groans while the steam powered air pump is hissing and pounding.



My straight piped Cummins pulling a long hill in OD @ 1800 rpm





I cannot tolerate... ... .



a soup can muffler on a Honda.
