Frightening the wits out of soldiers or popping their eardrums till they bleed, are more unexpected ways of targeting one’s enemies. Here we cover the theory that the centuries old ‘Aztec death whistle’ may have had a military use. We listen to the sweet siren songs and church organs of World War II that quickly blew you to kingdom come. We recount the abuse of folk superstitions in Vietnam during the war, as well as the modern police sound cannons (LRADs) that are blasted onto protesters today.

The Stuka's sirens were so incredibly striking, they became a cultural shorthand for "incoming bombardment" in many movies, TV shows and cartoons. The power of psychological warfare.

@IsaiahRichards692 Год назад

Sir, the Stuka sirens are working! Then why haven’t they gotten any kills?! Well, Sir, the British built bomb shelters in every nook and cranny and, as it turns out, the sirens are actually giving them precious time to run for cover. They’re also incredibly slow in the air and easy prey for enemy fighters so we’ve… sort of shot ourselves in the foot on this one! Won’t be making a mistake like that again, now off to invade Russia!

@dash8brj Год назад

They are often used in cartoons and TV shows, to portray a plane out of control or about to crash. Pretty sure a stuka was used in one of the Bond films when he was restrained inside a small plane, and managed to get free and take control just before it hit the ground.

@@DillaDawg88 thats true but only once they had the option to not use them, they were standard issue at the outbreak of the war it wasn't until later that they re-designed them to be turned on/off due to crew complaints about them turning on on at cruising speeds, then even later when they were scrapped entirely to save on production costs. According to what I've read they were somewhat difficult to remove without fear of compromising the landing gear by ground crews.

@vanhattfield8292 Год назад

I spent quite a bit of time in combat situations and the one time that I was truly terrified was during a moment of what seemed like complete silence. We had intel that the enemy had information regarding a night airdrop that we were to receive and that they were planning an ambush at the drop site and we were moving into position as part of a coordinated counter-ambush. It was a moonless night and black as coal and as we were approaching our ambush point my team leader turned on an unfiltered flashlight... Heart immediately in my throat... I snatched it out of his hand, turned it off and the whole team dropped low and hauled a$$ to put some distance between us and that point. It went from being "quiet" to suddenly seeming like you could hear footsteps in every direction, and it took some effort to recover,calm down and get back into the zone. Lucky AF that the mistake did not cost us but memories of that pops into my head at the most random times even today and I still get that panicky feeling for a split second. Crazy..

In the AAR when this was brought up, the reason he turned on the light was to check our location against a map, but the error was that for some reason he had removed the filter from his flashlight and totally disregarded the normal nighttime procedure for doing so.

@user-xz5it5hc1g Год назад

By the way, the siren on the Ju-87 stood for a reason. The fact is that if you exceed the speed during a dive, then the wing, which is not designed for such loads, may fall apart. And since when bombing, the pilot often could not pay due attention to the flight instruments (in this case, the speed indicator), a siren was installed, which allowed the approximate speed to be determined by sound.

@LightningWing11 Год назад

Wow, I never knew that. That’s a truly fascinating fact.

@rodafowa1279 Год назад

@@user-xz5it5hc1g This isn't true at all. The Stuka had an automatic dive recovery, installed just in case a pilot blacked out during the dive. The siren was there strictly for psychological reasons. The pilots also hated it, to the point where they would risk being reprimanded and remove it themselves. Think about it for a second. If the noise is that loud to people on the ground, how loud do you think it's going to be for the pilot, only a few feet away from it? He has to listen to this incredible noise as he's trying to focus on his target.

@alessiodecarolis Год назад

I think that the Katyushas' were the most terrifyng sound , simply because, contrary to Stuka's siren, there were a lot more, and an artillery's attack could last hours. Imagine being pounded relentlessy by thousands of rockets, and you can't do absolutely NOTHING.

The video misses one of the most iconic and effective sonic weapons of all: bagpipes. Scottish regiments were outfitted with pipers who would play - usually in conjunction with drums (also used as sonic weapons by many armies) - as the troops approached their targets. The resulting blast of sound frightened horses and intimidated troops. As someone who played a solider in the George Washington miniseries battle scenes, I can attest that the blare of several bagpipers and the thunder of their associated drummers hits you with a painful sonic wall. We had only three or four pipers in that group. Real armies employed many more pipers and drummers than our miniseries did, and the effect on enemies and allies alike must have been impressive.

Regarding the Katyusha the official title (BM13) was kept secret but had a K as marking (from the factory for Voronezh Komintern Factory), making the Katyusha nickname a small step.

The german V1 missiles with their pulse engines are another example. Imagine standing in London and hearing a low but intense humming sound. That's the approaching missile. The moment the engine stalls in order to drop the missile like a stone, the humming stops as well. So when you stop hearing that, it means the missile is coming down somewhere in your vicinity instead of just passing over

@timogeerties3487 Год назад

@@rvke3763 not very realistic representation, since the missile in the game plummets with running engines while the original dropped only after the engine shut off. It was an unguided missile with wings that had no means to steer (for example downward) so the missile plummeting down like that with propulsion still working wasn't technically possible

The scariest sounds of world War 2. 1. The snow starts speaking Finnish. 2. The beach starts speaking German. 3. The jungle starts speaking Japanese.

"The problem with the stuka dive bombers was their low speed, making them inadequate for air-to-air combat". Yeah. That's what fighters are for.

@SiVlog1989 Год назад

To me, one of the most terrifying sounds is the famous rising and falling tone of the drone of British WW2 Air Raid sirens. Every time I hear it, it makes my blood chill, even when the sirens are being tested and are still saving lives to this day, usually for flood warnings these days

@gustavovillegas5909 Год назад

The Aztec death whistle is truly terrifying. It’s said warriors would wait in the forests surrounding enemy cities and play the whistle from all over as if to announce “Death is upon you. We are coming.”

The most terrifying sound of war is a man dying for an elites war.

as a former submarine sonarman, it's quite unnerving to hear to the pulse of being pinged by active sonar, especially when it's continuous for days straight.

I wouldn't say the Ju-87 is "the first German WW2 aircraft that comes to mind" (that would probably be the Bf-109), but she's certainly up there (pun intended). Also, I'd probably add the A-10 gun (or any modern aircraft gun, for that matter) to the list...

For normal people who aren't into world war 2 history, then it is. It's the sound most recognized from that war, even if people know nothing about the individual planes they would know that sound

@dash8brj Год назад

If you are on the recieving end of an A-10's cannon, you won't hear it coming. In lots of footage you see the gun fire then a few moments later hear the brrrrt of the gun.

@kartorrent7496 8 месяцев назад

In my perspective, having an Eerie Silence is the worst you could hear, because the Enemies you’re against are likely hunkering down, so as to not be blown to bits by whatever Unholy Weapon will come raining down like A shower of Hellfire, followed by the distinct Smell Of Despair.

My grandmother was scared of some kinds of whistling noises (either by wind or otherwise) and thunder because of the war. My grandpa said we where happy when we heard the V-1 bomb, if it stalled, just drop everything, go lie down with hands at the back of your head and hope it fell far away etc...
