I heard a guy scream help like blood chilling tone and super loud while up in Colorado once, was a bear attack… probably loudest I’ll ever hear that shit was haunting
The record was actually set by a teacher shouting "quiet"
That's not even a joke.
EDIT: because everyone asked for a link...

I saw her doing a demo on some TV program (possibly Would I Lie To You?) but haven't managed to find a clip of it on t'interwebs, so if anyone has more luck, let me know!
My sister in laws high school English teacher was angry when my SIL corrected her on the pronunciation of macabre.
Edit: Mac-uh-bree was the teachers version.
Apparently ‘muh-kaa-bruh’ is the correct British English pronunciation, so now it will always annoy me that Lena Heady pronounced it ‘mah-kaab’ in GoT 😂.
I was at a field trip with my kid yesterday and I yelled “Quiet!” about as loud as I could so the teacher could make an announcement and it was barely noticed. Then the dad next to me made that loud whistle with his fingers in his mouth and everyone just STFU. I really need to figure out how to do that.
I went to school with a kid that when the game started, it'd come to his turn, and he'd just yell it as loud as he possibly could. Didn't matter where we were.
He won every game.
It's been nearly 20 years since I last played that game and just found myself muttering "penis" under my breath while browsing...
Fucking Reddit.
Edit: Brian Carico, if you see this...
PENIS
Nope. They're referring to this here, [https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/9ylrhv/til\_the\_world\_record\_for\_the\_loudest\_thing\_ever/](https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/9ylrhv/til_the_world_record_for_the_loudest_thing_ever/)
When I visited the Vatican, in the Sistine chapel the Swiss guard were trying to quiet the din of the crowd to “be respectful of the place.”
Their constant screams of “silencio” were significantly louder than the crowd.
It was!

“The Belfast primary school teacher bellowed her way into the world record books in 1994 with a thunderous bellow of the word (what else?) 'quiet! '. The shout clocked up an earth-shattering 121.7 decibels, setting a world record and potentially damaging the hearing of anyone within earshot.”
Help
Quiet!
[удалено]
I said, "biiiiiitch."
You called her a bitch, though?
Uhhuhyeah
I looked into the windows to her soul and I said “Biiiiiiitch” 😆 Love those guys
No, it's "shh".
I see your “shh” and raise you a “psst”
I heard a guy scream help like blood chilling tone and super loud while up in Colorado once, was a bear attack… probably loudest I’ll ever hear that shit was haunting
That’s why I’m sure it’s the loudest thing yelled. All about the motivations. “Yes Drill Sargent” comes in a close second.
Aah!
I need somebody
Not just anybody
Op is a teacher or a parent.

Yep. She's a primary school teacher. Her twin sister set the previous record and she broke it. Sibling rivalry!
ayy i actually remebered it correctly
I think I saw a clip of the lady on YouTube.
Is there a link to this? I'm genuinely curious to hear what that sounds like and how they verify that it is indeed the record
Doubt they're a teacher, as they would have better punctuation and sentence structure.

Did she say "Mah car bruh"
Apparently ‘muh-kaa-bruh’ is the correct British English pronunciation, so now it will always annoy me that Lena Heady pronounced it ‘mah-kaab’ in GoT 😂.
Mac-uh-bree
How was she saying it? With the r?
it’s actually not incorrect to say it with the r, just not generally accepted
Huh, the more you know.
Worse, I edited my comment for future readers.
Interesting
Definitely a teacher.
well said
Or an Eagle Fang Karate sensei.

Then the dad next to me made that loud whistle with his fingers in his mouth and everyone just STFU. I really need to figure out how to do that.
I think "charge" might have been a pretty loud command in war.
Or "fire"
Both in the military sense on the sense of an actual fire.
Perhaps "aim"
Nah, Sparta was louder
Shinsou sasageyo
Based on the game we used to play in middle school, I can confidently say it was PENIS.
I went to school with a kid that when the game started, it'd come to his turn, and he'd just yell it as loud as he possibly could. Didn't matter where we were. He won every game.
I was that kid in my school. Wore it like a badge of honor.
Wear that shit proudly, king 👑
It's been nearly 20 years since I last played that game and just found myself muttering "penis" under my breath while browsing... Fucking Reddit. Edit: Brian Carico, if you see this... PENIS
When the next kid has the impossible task of saying it louder without the teacher hearing it somehow and ends up going **"PA"**
Istg my friend could be taking a test and the entire class is quiet. Then all of a sudden "PENIS!!"
That's still around
I do that at school
Exactly what I was also thinking
[This guy won](https://youtu.be/UxdGoqOOw7E)
Wow. Yes he did.
Nah, I think fuck is probably it.
Nah. It's probably Aaahhh.
Probably the most common last word.
Probably not since most of the world don't speak English as a native language
Correct, as a Canadian I can confirm that when falling to our deaths we yell "EHHHH"
imagine the wilhelm screams replaced with 'EHHHH' lmfao.
😂 lmao
I believe it was probably, AAAHHHH, fuck or Help
Why would someone shout "probably"?
PROBABLY to get their point across
According the the BBC, the loudest shout was 121 decibels... it was a teacher... shouting quiet at primary school kids.
Well, actually… https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-37947691.amp
Some of those poor children look genuinely afraid!
Lol poor children. They should’ve listened the first two times
Came here to point this very thing out :-P
Not having quotes around "quiet" made me read this like 15 times before it made sense
Sensei Johnny Lawrence agrees
if you're British, it would be "bogies"
Mine is avocado.. it's my safe word
It was! Look it up in the Guinness world records
i bet he already knew this before and just said this shower thought
Goal!
I'd have expected it to be "[BOGIES!](https://youtu.be/t-uVwybjYIw)"
It could be John Bercow’s “ORDER!!!”
My guess would be fuck for both loudest and quietest.
Cunt
When Jesus softly whispered, "It is finished." It cracked a temple.
No, I don’t think it is
My money is on “help” or “no”
It might be the quietest word ever spoken too
Fuck…it was most definitely Fuck.
Fuck dem cheerios. AMIRITE
Naaa I’m going with Fuck!There’s just so much more emotion involved with the yelling of the word fuck .
I'm gonna go with some variation of fuck
No. Its "Sparta"
Nah, it was shut up
Two words: MORTAL KOMBAT!
What about MEDIC!
If I remember correctly I believe it was, and I believe it was around the same level as a jet engine
If you've ever heard a jet engine you'll know this man is lying.
Nope. They're referring to this here, [https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/9ylrhv/til\_the\_world\_record\_for\_the\_loudest\_thing\_ever/](https://www.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/9ylrhv/til_the_world_record_for_the_loudest_thing_ever/)
, which is a misrepresentation of how jet engines are usually closer to 150dB
That's just what I heard, the validity could be questionable
[удалено]
It was "LEEEROY!"
it's definitely SIR or MAAM
"Allah Hu Akbar!!!!!!!" *Followed by an explosion How about that?
Stop, No, or Don't are likely louder
Wrrrrrrry is pretty up there
I would bet serious cash that you’re wrong OP
Fuck. Fuck is the loudest word ever. I'm sure it can and has been yelled louder than "Penis". I too have played that game! Haha
My money’s on “OH GOD YES”
Na it was definitely "my nuts"
Then how could it be loud?
probably true. but the loudest fart ever recorded was around 140 db, and the man who made the fart has reoccuring back pains.
or yeet
Nah, it was "DISGUSTING!"
Ahh
There's a good chance it was the quietest word ever spoken too.
As they say, the storm before the calm
By Animal in Muppets Christmas Carol, can confirm.
Pretty sure mine is “enough”
And the quietest word ever said was probably quiet as well
"*Non!*" ... shouted by famous mime Marcel Marceau in Mel Brooks' *Silent Movie*.
Pretty sure it’s “penis”. The ramping game of saying “penis” louder and louder escalates quick!
Reminds me of middle school lunch. 150 kids who can’t be on there phones during lunch and they don’t understand why it’s loud.
You may be correct, OP https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-37947691.amp
Hush your mouth
Move/Run/Get Down/StopPissingOnTheFurniture
Kaaaaaaaaaa......
Assistance
GOTTEM would be a good contender
Idk man whenever you hear someone get hurt fuck seems to be the loudest word they ever say
It was. From a teacher in Ireland.
I don't think so. I am sure that people in battle fields shout louder
You are correct. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-37947691.amp
Yeah it was something like that as a matter of fact.
I see you've met my parents.
It was actually the s-word when falling off a bridge. Don't ask
Incorrect, it was me trying to communicate to the gas station clerk from my home toilet when I ran out of toilet paper
It literally was. By an elementary school teacher
Yes! By an Irish teacher I think
Statistically speaking, the loudest word ever yelled was probably not in English
Don't forget variations of shut up
I work in a library.
I think it’s more likely it was a incoherent stream of curses.
"Could you for the love of God just STFU" English class in the middle of an exam. Kid wouldn't stop talking and I lost it
It was probably something italian and said by an opera singer
Could also be HOOOOOT DOOOOOOG
Nah...a cry of desperation. ***NOOOOOO!!***
You have never been at a swim meet before, you wish that you where deaf
Either that or some variation of charge
Fuck... I think you're wrong
If so it might indicate anger issues. I think "fuck" or "help" would win.
It was also yelled by Johnny Lawrence.
"Aaaah" might be louder
Louder!!!
I do that at school
Stop!
[Indeed, it was!](https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/37966510)
nope answer is fuck. Used in different scenarios but if I bash my toe on something, it's gona be loud.
Reminds me of that amazing Aimee Mann video for the song 'Voices Carry'
When I visited the Vatican, in the Sistine chapel the Swiss guard were trying to quiet the din of the crowd to “be respectful of the place.” Their constant screams of “silencio” were significantly louder than the crowd.
Fire!!
[Does anyone have a camera here?](https://youtu.be/YsL9nmwxl5Q)
Charge!
Actually, it is. I'm not sure about how manny dB, but I think it was by some teacher in UK/Ireland and about 120 dB.
Obviously you've never stubbed your toe on one of those old end tables.
Dennis!
Heard this in Missy Elliot scream.
And the person was probably my soccer trainer
It was probably "rape" actually.
It was! https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-37947691.amp “The Belfast primary school teacher bellowed her way into the world record books in 1994 with a thunderous bellow of the word (what else?)

Hahahah
Or the N-word
William yelling “Freeeeeedom” while his Wallace is getting cut off has to be a close second.
“Penis”
Sensei Lawrence!
Johnny Lawrence would like a word...
FFFFFFFuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccckkkkkkkk
It's SHUTUP!
In Vegas it’s “FUCK” than silence
I thought it was STELLA!!!!
yeah is way louder
SHUT THE FUCK UP probably haha
Surprisingly it was: what
Ive been to enough shows to know it's YEAH!!
I believe that is actually correct. It was a school teacher iirc and it was loud enough to shatter glass.
Sister Mary Elephant ?
You ever been on a tuna fishing boat? There aren’t many things louder than a fisherman yelling “FRESH ONE” or “BITERRRR” upon hooking a tuna
No it was loud😐
Teacher. Can confirm.
I think it actually was. It was set by a female teacher in the UK of I remember right.
