I hear Laurel, you?

Interesting! I first heard about this on a TV newscast, and I heard "Yanny."

But this time, listening to it via the link you posted, I heard "Laurel."

[Howie]

I heard both at different times. Strange!

Thanks for posting this link. Here's a link from the NY Times, which also explains the phenomenon of Laurel vs Yanny:

Without the option of changing the frequency, I've heard Yanny, when it has been played on TV a few times.

This reminds me of the debate about that dress ~ blue or white?

Always something entertaining on the internet!

yanny, yanny, yanny, can't hear laurel at all!

Like Howie, I hear both at different times. Interesting.

The two phenomena--the dress and the Yanny/Laurel thing--have similarities, according to one explanation I was looking into.

If people can perceive things so differently, it's amazing that eyewitness accounts of anything are as accurate as they are.

Virginia and I both have bad brains, but what excuse does everyone else use?

[agate]

I got two different results too but my brain is full of little white spots too.

Or maybe they're little blue spots?

LOL! That's probably what it really was.

Aah. But eyewitnesses accounts AREN'T accurate.. This has been proven multiple times both in sterile lab experiments and in real life. Perception is based on proximity, fear level, experience, lots of other factors...two people see the same event unfold and see very different things.

I heard neither word but rather "shan"...but my hearing is poor...

Spoiler alert!! Do not read the following posts before you watch the video. You won’t be disappointed

Also, be sure to keep watching the video even after you think it’s over. You will know when it’s over because there is a big unexpected surprise at the end.

When I knew I was being asked to count the number of times the ball was passed, I knew I couldn't do it because I just don't follow any fast movements at all. My eyes slowed down a long time ago. I did really badly on this.

I'd make a perfectly terrible eyewitness. Interesting test though.

I watched it twice, the first time, I never saw the gorilla. The second time, I ignored the ball, and it's hard to believe I missed something so there. Your brain and where it's focused is everything. Very interesting!
