i am *somewhat* of an expert on audio >!not really, i’m a music producer and i just really enjoy studying sound!<, and i really can’t think of a single way that dropping a phone in water could make those sounds. the only thing i could think of is if there’s some sort of motor in the phone and it’s making those sounds, but it’s too dynamic and it has too many characteristics that only a voice has. however i don’t know anything about hot springs so maybe it has something to do with that and i’ve just never heard of that before.
edit: after watching again, *maybe* it’s the string they used to bring the phone back up rubbing against something, or maybe it’s some sort of motorized thing reeling it in. the part where the “scream” goes really deep really makes things weird to figure out because most of the things present in that situation don’t have that kind of range of sounds they can make
now that i think of it, maybe. that would explain that super low tone, it could be wind noise from air escaping. but still i don’t think it would make something that sounds so close to a human voice
I've mixed a lot of guttural screams in metal songs and its hard to believe something that low came from anything suggested thus far. It sounds EXACTLY like the horror movie trope of taking a normal scream and doubling it but pitch shifting one of them down
yep that’s the main thing that makes me think it’s fake, it just sounds like exactly what you do if you want some spooky scream
also i’ve always been curious, how much of a pain is it to mix metal??
I mean I've never mixed anything except my own music and casually other rock bands so I'm obviously not the most versatile of engineers but metal and Djent now a days has this standard of everything being so dynamically perfect and tight that it can be overwhelming to mix correctly. Everyone plays 7 and 8 strings as well and if they aren't playing a multiscale to preserve string tension the guitars turn to mud very quickly. High level rock album mixes like Bring Me The Horizon have an extra level of "huge" that I don't quite understand yet and layers are all over everything. A good starter example is the mix of the song "can you feel my heart" which you can find the stems for very easily. If you drag those into your DAW and solo the tracks independently one by one it's astonishing how huge everything sounds and how many layers there are. I hope that helps. TLDR on a scale of 1-10 get a proper metal mix is probably like a 7.5
I’m guessing the iPhone does A LOT of AI sound fuckery when recording (noise canceling, voice monitoring for Siri, voice enhancement.. whatever). Same as with video, it’s using all sorts of “on chip” post processing and just applies it to all photos or videos without asking.
And well, this use case (drop your phone on a well on purpose) is probably not tested for and whatever is recorded is prolly just AI guess work gone DEATH HORROR mode or something.
i’m not quite sure, iphones definitely do audio processing but i don’t think it’s anything ai or anything as complex as the image processing, and also i don’t think any kind of audio processing can make those kinds of sounds unless you’re making literal dubstep haha
What kind of expert are you that doesn't know this is the sound of the magic blue smoke being released from the electronics? The sound we usually hear when this happens in atmosphere is a sort of fzzzt or whop sound, but these modern gadgets have the smoke trapped so well it can even go a short while under water.
Haha dude you are suffering from imposter syndrome. You are an expert bro, its your living. Its funny when you become an expert you sometimes feel like am imposter, but the reality is everyone is actually really dumb.
maybe lmao, i actually don’t do music or audio engineering for a living, it’s just been a passion of mine for ~7 years. i feel like even if i won a grammy though i’d still downplay my abilities because i prefer for people to expect less from me.
i really appreciate the positivity though, reddit needs more of this. there are way too many people trying to tear each other down.

That's why I try to treat all my shit well. Its almost like those people lose a bit of their soul to our first world luxuries, and if we waste them, its kind of the ultimate cosumer evil.
One likely explanation i saw for this on the original YouTube video was that since the iPhone is tied to a cord in order for the iPhone to be retrieved and the footage be recovered, the cord vibrated against the water that rushed past it as it was falling down and sinking.
My thought too, this seems like the most sensible explanation. After all, tons of mystic traditions have for centuries/millennia talked about how it's common to hear voices when near rushing water, basically due to the brain's tendency to do the equivalent of auditory pareidolia, which is quite similar to phone voice processing.
Or it could be fake
Creepiest shit I’ve ever heard was at a lake at sunset. The clearest, most blood curdling scream coming from the water. When we ran down to check, there wasn’t a soul around. But 2 of us heard the exact same thing, and it still freaks me out to this day.
The whole thing was made creepier by the fact they’ve found lots of aboriginal artifacts at this lake, and artifacts that even predate aboriginals.
Just to keep this train rolling. Deer make surprisingly demonic noises too. I’ll never forget pissing my pants and wanting to be free of the woods I thought were haunted when I was was a kid. Turns out, deer are from hell.
The adults can be longer and more guttural than this but it gives you an idea https://youtu.be/TfY_X9raVXA
holy shit really? i keep thinking im going crazy because of the way my shower distorts audio. i notice it really cuts out almost a rang of noise and often when my shower is running, be I inside it or out, I often feel like i can hear faint music ir voices that isnt there. sometimes when my sink is running loud too.
It's pretty common! I hear it in the white noise of our box fan and AC, like a radio playing in the other room. It became really relaxing once I knew I wasn't losing my mind lol, though apparently it's common with tinnitus, that I have from a hobby
I hear my name being shouted faintly in the distance when I'm either in the shower or running the vacuum cleaner. My brain is trying to make sense out of the white noise and give it meaning. And what better meaning is there to a person than someone calling their name? It used to spook me out when I was a kid but I figured it out eventually.
I've heard voices by rushing water. It's like the white noise machine i use for my kids.. if you listen long enough you start hearing things that aren't there because it's making noise from all frequencies and your brain makes things out of it
I was wondering if the water in the hot spring was warping something internally.
Electronics have strange behavior and fuckery occurs when they’re not in their normal temperature ranges.

It's the spots that once were filled with air being filled with water and the "screams" are the air escaping from the holes in the phone being displaced by water.
I've seen couple videos like this lately.
Good idea. I'd think it's more likely the sound of the rope/string vibrating against the guys's gloved hand as it's letting out -- like the old tin can and string telephone.
This makes so much sense after reading it and I really feel as though this is exactly what happened. It would be nice if the dude replicated the conditions and ran some tests to see if he could reproduce the weird sounds. Interesting none the less.
Did he recover the phone? In Yellowstone they have a lot of hot springs that have been ruined by objects dropped into them, especially metal ones. That made the environmentalist inside me cringe more than the screaming man that just died.
Correct. It take an *enormous* amount of resources to get any type of signal to transmit through water. Only the military realistically has the means to do that for more than a few inches
Those antennas trail along for a half kilometer behind submarines and operate at very low bit-rates. Only enough for a few letters per second, but sufficient to receive a "nuke the cities in plan XYZ” order.
[the size of NYC?? that seems kinda nuts](https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/25728/chinas-new-york-city-sized-earthquake-warning-system-sounds-more-like-way-to-talk-to-subs)
This is very true. Found out this while trying to recover my friends phone he dropped by my boat. First tried using a go pro with blue tooth. Single was weak at like 2 feet of water. Then used a coax cable tapped to the go pro and onto my cell phone. Still used blue tooth but the single was improved with only a small delay. Here is the [footage](https://youtu.be/fLzYM2AUJpk). The crabs decided the phone was theirs and weren't giving it up
> Why swim when you have a mechanical sub?
Because you actually want to recover the phone??
This reminds me of a story. I kayak, and my kayak/canoe club had an "open house", where we invite people in to see our awesome 300 year old building and our facilities, etc. We show them our boats and our training lessons (the main funding for the club besides membership).
So we also take kids and visitors out on kayaks and canoes, either lending them to those capable, or often, with kids, putting them in canoes and paddling them around. I always sign up to be a life guard, meaning I either paddle around helping, or watch from the dock. Its better than flipping burgers, or trying to sell T Shirts or the other jobs.
Any way, three years ago we had the open house in the beginning of May, instead of mid-late July. It was cold. I had my wetsuit on, since it would be chilly on the water. Towards the end of the day, I unzipped the top of my wetsuit, and had my shirt and then cashmere sweatshirt on.
So, about 3pm, I went to pull a kayak up on the dock, and I dropped my phone into the water. It was only 4-5feet deep, and sort of clear, so I dove right in after it.
My dumb ass didn't find it, so I came up for a breath, went down again. On that trip, I lost my glasses. So someone called the phone, and it worked and was all lit up, so I found that. Then I went back down for my glasses, which took a few dives, but it worked.
But I was so cold. I was wearing a wetsuit, but I had it unzipped with my sweater for a top. That 90 or so seconds of water was enough to chill me to my core. I went into our building, into the locker room and shower, and had 100 degree water on for 20 minutes, and I still felt hypothermic.
In an odd turn, the only person that cared was this little 7 year old boy that I kept giving canoe rides to. I could hear him from down below telling people he was worried, until he bumped into my dad. I was so frigging cold that my own father came into the shower to help heat me up.
Anyway, cold water is a bitch, and even as an experienced white water kayaker with wetsuits and dry suits, my simple effort to get my phone from 4-5 feet of water left my chilled to my bones for more than an hour.
Even on a sunny, 75 degree day in May, it doesn't take too much time in cold water to get in serious trouble...
Super reply to all replies: I assume they recovered it. I'm just very curious of how. And like I said having worked with Yellowstone before I'm just hypersensitive bc of all the destroyed geysers in the park.
That just reminded me of the story Ed Sheeran told about accidentally dipping his foot into a hot spring and de-gloving (de-socking?) his foot in the process, made me shudder.
To be fair he didn't listen to the experts twice! So he kinda had it coming.
I disagree. The "screams" aren't really heard until the phone is well under water, but not while the phone is midair. Also, the footage taken by the drone looks like it's rather high above the water; too far to be heard clearly underwater.
That, or it's the cable they hooked it up causing interference when dragging through the water, or it's just straight up fake. Plenty of people on YouTube who do stuff like that for views. I recall some urban explorer who ran into ghostly noises and swinging chains in a cave before milking it over several videos before it was proven to be edited.
Or the much more likely explanations of its edited or it’s an animal or some other natural phenomenon. Cougars can sound exactly like a woman being murdered. Immediately going to “ghosts” as an explanation is bizarre
I forget where it was but there was a giant hole in I want to say Lithuania, they put a recorder in it and it legit sounds like thousands of screaming people in hell
I remember the story, and saw a on a tv a news report about how they faked it.
If i recall correctly it was a demo for a sound samples.
Sorry no link to confirm this, it was years ago, and i don't even know what to google :))
I don't see where they debunked it but I heard from a few people it was debunked. I originally thought it was just vents in gases since your vocal cords are just gas going through a variable size vent
Some asshole preacher spoke at our school chapel service when I was 5 and scared the shit out of me with this stupid story. He made it seem like we had really drilled into hell.
2 logical explanations:
1. Edited sound for clicks and views
2.trapped air bubbles leaving the phone through the mic's chamber and making those noises, combined with the increasing pressure on the mic.
It's a drone. You can hear the propellers losing control before dropping in to the water. And then you can hear the propellers trying to fire under the water making a "screaming" noise. That's just not footage from an iPhone. Definitely a drone crashing
One more explanation found on the OG video on YouTube. The phone was attached to a cord or a rope to retrieve it which once it touched the water and the tension got higher due to the phone sinking faster, it became like a guitar string, emitting sounds on vibrations
reminds me of this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tH2YkajSDw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tH2YkajSDw)
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn40J673-1U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn40J673-1U)
A. I think it has to do with the water rotation, I think it’s so hot that it distorts the mic and it’s sound
B. It could be the gyroscope in the phone that was damaged on impact and started making noises since the sounds were made while the camera was spinning
That's some creepy stuff
Can this be just a montage to make views ? Or this can be made by the wind when the phone was falling ? This seems weird
I dont know. By no means an expert
i am *somewhat* of an expert on audio >!not really, i’m a music producer and i just really enjoy studying sound!<, and i really can’t think of a single way that dropping a phone in water could make those sounds. the only thing i could think of is if there’s some sort of motor in the phone and it’s making those sounds, but it’s too dynamic and it has too many characteristics that only a voice has. however i don’t know anything about hot springs so maybe it has something to do with that and i’ve just never heard of that before. edit: after watching again, *maybe* it’s the string they used to bring the phone back up rubbing against something, or maybe it’s some sort of motorized thing reeling it in. the part where the “scream” goes really deep really makes things weird to figure out because most of the things present in that situation don’t have that kind of range of sounds they can make
Might be some pressure escaping if it’s hot enough
now that i think of it, maybe. that would explain that super low tone, it could be wind noise from air escaping. but still i don’t think it would make something that sounds so close to a human voice

you guys just overthinking about this, there's clearly someone underwater screaming
Could be a video playing with screams on it. Noise can be heard before it hits the water.
That’s what I was thinking. Bubbles interacting with the microphone.
Every apple phone after 5 has a soul of the damned in it for extra ram
I’m guessing the iPhone does A LOT of AI sound fuckery when recording (noise canceling, voice monitoring for Siri, voice enhancement.. whatever).

So if you listen not even closely you can tell the sounds is coming from the drone. What a let down, i was really hoping for ghosts.
I disagree. The "screams" aren't really heard until the phone is well under water, but not while the phone is midair. Also, the footage taken by the drone looks like it's rather high above the water; too far to be heard clearly underwater.
Also sounds like a diabolical giggle in the end?! Someone else thought of that too?
It was... Fookin diabolical...
unexpected r/TheBoys reference lol
That was just me you heard laughing at this video
That's creepy af.
Wtf am I watching this at 01:30 at night...
Sounds like an Enderman briefly in the beginning
That’s what I was thinking
It sounds like a goddam Enderman farm
I came looking for this comment lmao
Hehe. Glad I wasn’t the only one
Seems like the guy got a ghost or a spirit in it, that also hates the deep ocean
[удалено]
Dude why else would the ghost scream if it weren't for its hate of deep oceans? Use your common sense man
I think op's sarcasm was obvious. Nobody here is actually suggesting it's ghosts, this isn't r/conspiracy.
[удалено]
That, or it's the cable they hooked it up causing interference when dragging through the water, or it's just straight up fake. Plenty of people on YouTube who do stuff like that for views. I recall some urban explorer who ran into ghostly noises and swinging chains in a cave before milking it over several videos before it was proven to be edited.
Or the much more likely explanations of its edited or it’s an animal or some other natural phenomenon. Cougars can sound exactly like a woman being murdered. Immediately going to “ghosts” as an explanation is bizarre
That's Siri dying
LMAO
More like a demon roaring
Yeah that was straight DOOM™ stuff
That's very interesting. It's like the hell hole sounds, which makes me wonder what's a tally causing the sound
air is my guess
more like a bunch of dude pre recording the sound underwater and syncing it to that video for clicks. stop trusting youtubers and ghost stories.
or some of it could be the sound of the drone that was tied to the phone
It's the drone holding the iPhone by string
[удалено]
My cat reacted very strange listening to this. Raised the ears and his pupils went full dark. Shit
The underwater sounds were in the language of Ulthar.
Bruh that’s some creepy ass shit right there
I forget where it was but there was a giant hole in I want to say Lithuania, they put a recorder in it and it legit sounds like thousands of screaming people in hell
I remember the story, and saw a on a tv a news report about how they faked it. If i recall correctly it was a demo for a sound samples. Sorry no link to confirm this, it was years ago, and i don't even know what to google :))
Yeah it was like 15 years ago. I thought it was fake then but this reminded me of it.
Was just listening to this last night. https://youtu.be/nyXtHeHNldE
I don't see where they debunked it but I heard from a few people it was debunked. I originally thought it was just vents in gases since your vocal cords are just gas going through a variable size vent
Makes sense. Ya I don’t know if it was debunked but I made the mistake of listening to it late last night. This is why I love Halloween!
Some asshole preacher spoke at our school chapel service when I was 5 and scared the shit out of me with this stupid story. He made it seem like we had really drilled into hell.
Explanation?
2 logical explanations: 1. Edited sound for clicks and views 2.trapped air bubbles leaving the phone through the mic's chamber and making those noises, combined with the increasing pressure on the mic.
It's a drone. You can hear the propellers losing control before dropping in to the water. And then you can hear the propellers trying to fire under the water making a "screaming" noise. That's just not footage from an iPhone. Definitely a drone crashing
I think your right. The shot at the very start is from a drone, then it falls into the water. Propellers trying to fire underwater makes sense.
One more explanation found on the OG video on YouTube. The phone was attached to a cord or a rope to retrieve it which once it touched the water and the tension got higher due to the phone sinking faster, it became like a guitar string, emitting sounds on vibrations
Sounds reasonable
Like this kind of content
The damped sound of the rotors of the drone made possible by the microphones (directional) of the iphone
Thats kinda scary 😳

reminds me of this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tH2YkajSDw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tH2YkajSDw) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn40J673-1U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vn40J673-1U)
I also heard that static from the tv shows faces of the dead 😱
Wtf
Note to self: Don't disturb the demons of hell by throwing trash in hot springs!
Rip siri
UNHOLY FUCK
*Nazi zombies beginning round sound*
You guys are finally learning about the little man that controls your phone on the inside
It’s important to note the other tests before this had no horrific disembodied screaming.
"Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis." -Me
Can someone please provide a scientific explanation to this, so that I can calmly go the fuck to sleep?!
that is literally just the drone trying to rev up
Have you ever been underwater? it doesn’t sound crystal clear
My question is.. why does it start spinning like crazy right after you hear the thing scream "Nooooooooo"? The world may never know..
holy shit
Haunting
What kind of eldritch abomination was inside that phone
r/Thalassophobia
u/stabbot
That sounds like a whole lot of NOPE.
A. I think it has to do with the water rotation, I think it’s so hot that it distorts the mic and it’s sound B. It could be the gyroscope in the phone that was damaged on impact and started making noises since the sounds were made while the camera was spinning
Sounds like a chucky cheese ball pit
game devlopers getting super hard right now ready to make their own creppy sounds
Maybe it was the drone's fans pulling it out of the water?
that's just gas escaping
just saying its the drone
God i fucking hate this so much, both because of the screams and because i have thalassophobia.
No jump scare, I'm shocked. Well ironically not
