How to deal with LOUD Upstair Neighbors 

Our upstairs neighbors really love to jump on their beds late at night. What’s the weirdest noise you’ve heard your neighbors make?

Living under neighbors is pure hell

My upstairs neighbour runs a marathon, in clogs, around their apartment every morning and then spends all afternoon moving their furniture around, evenings are spent strutting around in high heals before the random unexplained noises start at midnight and go on until 3am. I’m currently devising a painful death for them.

Anger and frustration makes a person extremely creative

my upstairs neighbours sound like they are bowling and dancing in wooden shoes

There's not point in going upstairs and talking to them, because if they are considerate and courteous people, they would already know not to stomp on the ground especially at weird hours of the night. So yes something like this or filing a noise violation or calling police on them is my only approach.

our upstairs neighbors would: drag chairs all over the place , ride toy black plastic bikes all over the place , play the piano at 6 AM .. just to name a few...

I’ve complained TWICE to my leasing office and my neighbor is still disrespectful. I’m losing my f*cking mind. I pay too much rent to be listening to this sh*t at 2:30AM right now. I wish I had the resources to do something like this.

Dealing with annoying upstairs neighbours right now..... it's been 7 hours of them stomping around, throwing stuff on the floor and violently pushing doors..... it's pure hell idk what to do

Maybe we need a support group too.

The wildebeests that live above us are all going to experience the same thing in hell.

I had this issue a while back, my solution was I had a stereo from the 70s with two and a half foot tall speakers. I went to Harbor freight and bought ratcheting load bars, and had a friend help me hold the speakers to ceiling and press them to the ceiling with the load bars. Then whenever I heard noise I would crank up the stereo to concert Hall pitch right under their floor. For even more fun I hooked it up to a light timer so that when I wasn't home the stereo would turn on and off continuously throughout the day. Good times!

I literally jump and bang on the ceiling with the bottom of my fists. I need to make one of these!!

Live in NYC & there are usually always loud neighbors in all buildings. In the apartment above mine the guy is always moving furniture around every single day. Walking around extremely loudly. Not the worst though. The apartment below mine though, the TV is always loud as ever. It's woken me up at 12 in the morning. The women down there is drinking like crazy is my guess cause I've heard her literally everyday laughing her butt off and talking extremely loud. I've gone to her apartment & asked her nicely to lower it down & she blew me off saying it's not her problem. Building management don't care, which doesn't surprise me. It's all about the money for them. Hardwood floors & thin wall's sucks! Ugh...

I hate to admit , this was hilarious. But in all seriousness people need to respect their neighbors! does anyone respect peace and quiet anymore or is everyone an a hole out there.

I've been experimenting with putting noisy things on strings and taping them to the ceiling fan. And until I saw this video, I thought I had lost it..you guys ...LMFAO. I can't even . I'm howling over here! 🤣

Brilliant idea! I had complained to our crazy manager a lot of times and still our elephant neighbors are still stomping, running and jumping. They dont even have a toddler!

I am so building this. I have a family of 5 constatntlytantly running, jumping, skateboarding, throwing heavy objects boys, a crying baby and an arguing couple living above me in a 1 bdroom. My floors are shaking....they are those kind of people who take up 2 parking spots instead of pulling up a bit so another car could park. Oh and we are in NYC....o

The hate I feel for my apartment neighbours is raw and near evil levels. Thank you for this great video. Another good trick is you put a speaker (like a bluetooth speaker) near the vents or attach it to the upper ceiling (for the idiot upstairs) or to the wall (for the jerk off next to you) and play a horrible sound like a burping loop (I'm partial to Yanagi19871) or a screaming baby loop or a farting/vomit sound loop. Atonal music is also a great choice. You do this and then you leave it on while you run some errands, go the gym etc. I also make a point of getting up early on the weekends and playing this sounds to wake these assholes up. Fuck them.

Have speakers in my ceiling i have a special "neighbor's favs" playlist consisting of godzilla stomping, construction noises, & songs that are complimented by their stomping.

When you realize they could've just attached a single boot to a stick and hit the ceiling and hit it

I use a air horn I put it upside the air vent and blew like it was no tomorrow everybody set their asses down and shut the hell up its 1:30 in the morning and he wanted to play football in the living room where they learned

As I'm watching this my neighbors are stomping

Are you selling these because I’d give you a kidney for one right now.

We have some guy who is so heavy footed it sounds like he is constantly stomping up and down the hallway and tonight my roommate was convinced that someone was constantly falling off of their raised bed

my upstairs neighbours are stomping around, dropping marbles 50 times in a minute, and literally dragging their chairs with so much force. when I went to confront them about it, they claimed that it wasn't them and that they didn't believe I could hear them. What kind of bullshit is this?? If it's not them, then WHO?!

I keep a shoe near me to throw at the ceiling for when my upstairs neighbors eggs on his German Sheppard and sound like they are playing fetch with a bowling ball.

Dealing with this right now. My husband is going upstairs to see what is going on.

I live in a city of 300,000 people. The police department shuts down between 11pm and 7 am and only has patrol officers operating. We're given the option to file a noise complaint but it can only be done by e-mailing the bylaw division which also can't be reached between 11pm and 7am. Our upstairs neighbours literally stomp around on the floor above us and next to contacting building security to keep the noise down, that's all we can do, which ends up with our neighbours throwing garbage down onto our balcony, even though they aren't told it's us (which tells me they know their noise is going straight down to our unit). Don't people know that this is the kind of stuff that people get murdered or sent to the hospital over? I don't get it... Why do people STOMP (note: I'm not saying walk loudly, I'm saying STOMP) on their floor when they live above someone. That tells me they're actively trying to be noisy and the real kicker is we've never seen each other and never talked to each other but lo and behold, there they are stomping with full force on the floor.

This gave me an idea to get revenge on those noisy idiots upstairs. Thank you

I live under an elderly couple in Shanghai. Everyone has been spending a lot of time at home, lately, because of the coronavirus and the old man just loves bouncing balls off the floor. He particularly loves his damn ping pong ball. Do you know what a ping pong ball on a hardwood floor in the room directly above you sounds like? It's a sharp tap, tap, tap, tap... after a while it feels like it's coming from inside your head. It's like The Telltale freakin' Heart. I had to ask him to stop twice. Fortunately, he has stopped bouncing the ping pong ball, but that hasn't stopped him from bouncing other, slightly less annoying balls off the floor. Why can't he find another kind of toy?

No point in talking to my neighbor. She wouldn't even opened the door. I only wanted to ask them to be more considerate of us living below them. Who let's their kids run in an upstairs apartment back and forth🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Talking to your neighbors won’t work and if you hit the roof they’ll start doing the same in return thinking your the problem. Saying that your making noise too & use that as an excuse to keep making more noise. Living in apartments sucks. I never had this issue with other neighbors until they move upstairs. Ugh 😏 I officially became “Squidward” I can relate to him. 🦑

Yo legit I need help there nonstop litteraly stomping on top of my room the past 2 hours and I’m am about 10 minu s away from taking my 43 and going up there and telling them something

Upstairs neighbors: "What is all that NOISE?? It's like they've got a woodshop down there!"

This is brilliant! My upstairs neighbor, literally plays with the shower for hours!!!! He turns it on then off a few seconds later. then does it again over and over and over again. Then at night he plays his music "just at the moment we go to bed"!!! and leaves it on all night long. If I go to the living room to avoid the constant boom boom boom in my room, he will go to the living room and stomp around the living room. god damn squeaky floors! I work at home and have done so for 7 years. This jerk moved in and he started spying on us in our bathroom. Dozens of complaints to the manager - he never stops. They didn't believe me. I've even called the police for the constant noise upstairs at night. They didn't do anything, because they couldn't hear it outside and I was Not willing to go to court. I just want the jerk to stop being an ass. He has drilled holes in my ceiling in my dining room in 3 places, to put a plumbers camera down the hole to spy on us. I have seen it more than 5 times. he has manipulated the light fixture - don't ask me how he did it but he did. ya know those round bulbs and they sit nicely in the bezel NORMAL. He found a way to push them forward and push his camera in my bathroom!!! I was in the shower for gods sake, Police didn't do anything because it wasn't happening "right now". oh BS Now he is spraying cologne through the HVAC system. When were trying to sleep. How the hell he got in there I have no idea. The maintenance crew says he couldn't get in there, but he did. ( I thought well being sane, maybe there's a ghost visiting, nope or my husband got up and sprayed something - nope) When I smell the cologne, I get up to find out where it's coming from..... Not the master bathroom, not from the open window, I stand right under the vent and can smell the dang cologne. I go back to bed, and he sprays it again, I feel it land on my arm! god damn it - Why is he doing this? I never did a thing to him ever. Last night I covered the vent and was able to sleep after hours of him spraying, stomping and being a complete jerk. what is he trying to do ? Poison us? My husband helped me cover the vent fully and completely and we are looking for another place to live fast! Last night were watching tv with the sliding door open, it's hot here, not hot enough for the a/c yet. I see a light on my patio!! WTF! it's moving around. It's his god damn camera. I went outside to see if I could grab it, but he heard me open the screen door. Today, while I'm working, it's quiet and comes in the room above me and bangs so hard on the wall that my pictures rattled on the wall. He did that 5 times today alone. Not counting the other days he randomly decides that he's going to bang on the wall. So the manager won't do a damn thing, maybe cuz mommy and daddy pay his rent and he can get away with anything. The stomping machine will only work for a while as we think he is crazy. Who plays with the shower on and off for 3 hours straight? not me. I have work to do. I am a professional with a degree. He has never worked since he moved in. he is home all day long - everyday. Some entitled punk who's mommy and daddy pays his rent. Trust me, I have fought back. Banging on the wall right back at ya. using a broom liberally on the ceiling. Ooops my husband put holes in the ceiling he was so pissed at them spying on me. Sorry for my rant, this has gone on way too long. I could go on and on about the torment he has caused us. Many many nights of lack of sleep and having to go to work tired.

I'm over here CRYING!!!! This was HILLARRIOUSS!!! 😭😩😩😭🤣🤣🤣I needed this laugh!

Dogs upstairs sometimes sound like they have heels xD

I'm buying myself a basket ball... will just bounce against the ceiling.😎

what software do you use to model that thing on ipad or even show it?, thanks a lot

I used to slam tennis balls into the ceiling everytime the tall, stomping neighbor got loud (all the time). I didn't want to bust a hole in the ceiling using a broom. Now, with my new neighbors who sound like they jump off the kitchen counters and as if they are turning their furniture over on the weekends, I just yell, what the F are you doing up there? I am the cranky older woman neighbor, so my next door neighbors at least had the courtesy of knocking on my door saying they were installing something in the wall and gave me a heads up. And when I said I was going on a Zoom meeting in 5 minutes, they courteously waited until the next day.

Drilling a small hole into their floor to where their fridge is located. (So they never see the hole) and then passing a tube through said hold and then expelling fart spray makes a room SUPER stinky

My upstairs neighbors roll in office chairs on wood flooring with a dog and a kid running around with music blaring 27/7

*"Hey, hey David! Our upstairs neighbors are jumping on their bed again!!!"*

My next door neighbours just bang on the walls and it makes me feel the wall is gonna fall down '-' . They also just go on at it with banging hammers randomly cause why not.

There is never a good time for noise. Especially sudden unexpected noise that can't be controlled.

Bro I understand that. I have been living it with. The person is most active from 7 PM had to request asking to stop walking after 12 AM. It is really nerve recking.

I'm up stairs and I try really hard not to be loud but I fell and I felt bad for our downstairs neighbor

Woah dude! We went to school together! I watch quite a bit of RU-vid and I've often been curious if I would ever see someone I know either making videos or leaving a comment somewhere.. The only reason I found this video is because I just moved into an apartment for the first time in my life and the inconsiderate ahole above me is causing me to lose my sanity. 24/7 nonstop stomping, slamming, dropping, etc. etc. to the point where I am literally in tears every day.. Seeing other people's horror stories has made me feel a tiny bit less alone! Edit: Oops, this comment was to David

on a scale of 0 to 420, how stoned were you when you made this

I know this is late but what is the 3D app you were using as I think it will be really helpful for my architect projects

“(dont do this)” YOU CANT TELL ME WHAT TO DO *FAWK YOU NEIGHBORS IM TRYNA SLEEP*

jumping in the bed late at night... this guys are innocent.

Living under my neighbors is hell i always try banging back but like i cant stomp on the roof this is so funny and feels like it helps all of us cuz just hearing walking all through the night is just so annoying

Lived in apartments most of my life not all people who live above you have mental conditions. The couple above above me now does. Every day and night regardless of time they drag furniture and randomly bang on the walls, a lady walks around in heels all day and never goes anywhere. They seriously act like 5 year olds without supervision. I wouldn't be surprised if they even draw on their walls with crayons. The noise they make is not due to simple every day living it is intentional. The lady will bang at any noise in the building but makes more than anyone.

My upstairs neighbors are quite quiet for having a energetic toddler. I feel blessed after reading these comments

it seems that i live in a parallel universe. My downstairs neighbor is loud af. Party every weekend, singstar in the middle of the nigh t(2 a.m) and stuff like that. He says that i'm loud, even if i'm not home, lol!

I like that gadget. I'm going through the same thing right now. I've tried calling the leasing office but to no aveil I blame them because they shouldn't put people with small kids upstairs over nobody. I guess I next step is to go to the news people. Im sick of them.

I put a Bluetooth speaker in the other room that's connected to my phone with apps and make all kinds of disturbing noises to exact my revenge when I'm not slamming the ceiling with the baseball bat or confronting my neighbor head on

I blame the landlords

We moved out and together 3 years ago. And we did this but with a modern object all you need is the hard part of a broom lol 😂

Lmaooo !!! I need a ceiling stomper!!

Okay this was really fun and entertaining to watch 😂

I hit my ceiling with a baseball bat all the time, they just do it more

I live under a family of 7...with 4 animals....one being a large husky, and one being an even larger great dane....the latter of which likes to run around their apartment at 2am, because it only goes outside 2 times a day for a couple min each. Even the kids get up at 3 am to play.

Who the hell wears shoes in the house anyway...

Upstairs neibors really like wrestling on the bed!

Its a good day when you guys make a video 😂😂

I’ve dreamed of something like this!!! 😆 in lieu of having to craft something, I have a heavy weight bar that works nicely. I’ve been dealing with upstairs neighbors with a kid that starts running around at 5-6am! 😤

somehow I suspect that ryan and david are the loud neighbors

You boys made me remember Mr. Heckles from an episode of F.R.I.E.N.D.S. 😂😂😂😂

I need this. Do you have it sold on Amazon?

I’d love to buy this for my Gd awful upstairs neighbors!

Me leaving this hell house:'Gosh, I did it!" my friend:" You are a refugee, Emory!" truth. I'd rather be a refugee than a victim of these annoying sounds

This video is gold

If I go and knock on the door, its going to get real. That's how tired of the fucking stomping I am.

lol just take a broom and the mop and hit them up against the ceiling

Me : you thought your neighbors were loud HA I have people washing their clothes at 5 a.m. in the morning dogs barking kids screaming and adults screaming people on treadmills I'm just so tired of it I cannot wait to move

My fists are currently sore from banging in the damn walls at the neighbors above me. When I bang they stfu so they know they are loud af. I loathe every moment they are awake. I have called the cops, cursed them out, cursed their friends out, contacted the leasing office and NOTHING!!! I personally hope they fall off their balcony at this point

Pls help me, this sound is putting me in depression and I am tired of

A broomstick might’ve saved you some time. But nice work

Change your modem/Router name to : "please Apt. # stop running or jumping" and they will stop after they try to connect to the internet.

Stomping super loud when walking for no reason is a sign of low intelligence. There’s absolutely no reason to stomp at anytime unless you’re in a marching band. So many dumb people walk around so heavy footed even in single story houses. My dumb roommate can’t even walk down the tile hallway without sounding like Bigfoot.

Went into the bathroom and shouted karma is a b, how rude, someday you will live on the bottom floor and you'll see what it sounds to have rude neighbor's upstairs with no consideration! The other thing we tried is Everytime the get real loud we turn our TV up total volume fir about 4 minutes then turn down. It works sometimes. With thus darn shelter in place we hear more noise than ever!

My mom does this on occasion as of recently. Our neighbors upstairs can be noisy but it’s mostly the 8 year old kid that makes all the noise; I remember one time he was stomping and jumping around at 4:30 in the morning! So what my mom does is that whenever the kid or the neighbors make too much noise, she gets a broom and bangs it on the ceiling so they can stop. Sometimes I wonder that if both me and her are going to be pushed to the breaking point, having to call the cops on them because we’ve been dealing with those neighbors for years.

Perfect, now just hook it up to an audio sensor and it can activate even when you're out of town. 24/7 service just like they ordered.

This is everything I've been waiting for for effing years. Unfortunately I have a feeling I'll have to stick to my broom for the time being though 😕

Not all upstairs neighbors are bad. I respect all my neighbors and try to be as quiet as possible. It’s the inconsiderate scum that you have to worry about. The ones that think they are the only ones on this planet. Karma is a b

I live in SF and when he said "it's SF" I was like of course

Hey guy, wouldn't this would damage your drywall on the ceiling?

Yet. Their noise is over your head, your noise is under their feet....

Im bout to purge my up stairs neighbors

A house is the only way! 3rd floor also! I cant stand rude inconsiderate neighbors!!!!

I live here in Hawaii,my upstairs neighbors are really Lunatic!They are very Rude and inconsiderate,as if they own these apartments!work of satan lol!

i was really hoping this would work but yk, i wasn’t too disappointed 😂

Love the background sounds with the video.

I live in a townhome with neighbors on the side. Their so loud it sounds like they're in my basement!

So... a workshop in your living room. Why do I get the feeling that you are the loud neighbors?

For my loud neighbors I just played dubstep on my Bluetooth speaker and put it on top of the ceiling fan lmao

I live in a pretty old two story brick building that has hardwood floors. It's divided into four apartments two down and two up. As nice as the floors look there are certain spots that just creak badly. I'm honestly the one who's always concerned that I'm disturbing the person downstairs by walking around late at night on this creaky floor. On the other hand, the rather large elderly woman who lives underneath me is quite a stomper. There were several times that I actually thought she might have fallen down and was flopping around on the floor but the heavy thuds were still moving around underneath my apartment. It's not so much that I can hear it but when I'm lying in bed I could literally feel the percussion through the floor and walls. What's always helped, especially through college, were a couple of nice air purifiers to fill the living space with white noise. It really drowns out a lot of the annoying sounds that are produced from the people we live around.
