Both Javier and I have posted several articles in an attempt to keep up with the ongoing saga of the sounds and it would seem we are getting closer to the truth each time.

As we have waited patiently for some type of official recognition, Javier found some interesting comments from physics professorJean-Pierre St.-Maurice and I finally came across someone myself.

A renowned geophysicist has come forward with news that the big sound mystery or “sounds of the apocalypse” (as some like to call them) is a very real phenomena.

Dr./Prof. Elchin Khalilov has recently chimed in on the perplexing reverberations that have taken the Interwebs by storm since late summer of 2011.

Here is Dr. Khalilov’s take on the subject in an interview from the GeoChange Journal:

STRANGE SOUNDS IN SKY EXPLAINED BY SCIENTISTS

Mr. Khalilov, what is the nature of the unusual very low-pitched sounds reported by a great number of people in different parts of the planet since the summer of 2011? Many call them “The Sound of the Apocalypse”. Information about that comes from all over the world: US, UK, Costa Rica, Russia, Czech Republic, Australia, etc.

We have analyzed records of these sounds and found that most of their spectrum lies within the infrasound range, i.e. is not audible to humans. What people hear is only a small fraction of the actual power of these sounds. They are low-frequency acoustic emissions in the range between 20 and 100 Hz modulated by ultra-low infrasonic waves from 0.1 to 15 Hz. In geophysics, they are called acoustic-gravity waves; they are formed in the upper atmosphere, at the atmosphere-ionosphere boundary in particular. There can be quite a lot of causes why those waves are generated: earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, storms, tsunamis, etc. However, the scale of the observed humming sound in terms of both the area covered and its power far exceeds those that can be generated by the above-mentioned phenomena.

In that case, what could be causing this humming in the sky?

In our opinion, the source of such powerful and immense manifestation of acoustic-gravity waves must be very large-scale energy processes. These processes include powerful solar flares and huge energy flows generated by them, rushing towards Earth’s surface and destabilizing the magnetosphere, ionosphere and upper atmosphere. Thus, the effects of powerful solar flares: the impact of shock waves in the solar wind, streams of corpuscles and bursts of electromagnetic radiation are the main causes of generation of acoustic-gravitation waves following increased solar activity.

Given the surge in solar activity as manifested itself in the higher number and energy of solar flares since mid-2011, we can assume that there is a high probability of impact of the substantial increase in solar activity on the generation of the unusual humming coming from the sky. It should be pointed out that solar activity began to rise sharply since early 2011, with its amplitude significantly higher than all forecasts given by a number of influential scientific institutions in 2010 and 2011. Meanwhile, the observed increase in solar activity is fully consistent with the forecast of the International Committee GEOCHANGE published in the Committee’s Report in June 2010. If this growth rate of solar activity continues, its amplitude by the end of 2012 will be higher than the amplitude of 23rd solar cycle, and in 2013-2014 the solar activity will reach its peak the amplitude of which was predicted by us to be 1.5 – 1.7 times higher than the amplitude of the 23rd cycle.

But you said that the cause of the “sky hum” can lie within Earth’s core as well, what does it mean?

There is one more possible cause of these sounds and it may lie at the Earth’s core. The fact is that the acceleration of the drift of the Earth’s north magnetic pole which increased more than fivefold between 1998 and 2003 and is at the same level today points to intensification of energy processes in the Earth’s core, since it is processes in the inner and outer core that form the Earth’s geomagnetic field. Meanwhile, as we have already reported, on November 15, 2011 all ATROPATENA geophysical stations which record three-dimensional variations of the Earth’s gravitational field almost simultaneously registered a powerful gravitational impulse. The stations are deployed in Istanbul, Kiev, Baku, Islamabad and Yogyakarta, with the first and last one being separated by a distance of about 10,000 km. Such a phenomenon is only possible if the source of this emanation is at the Earth’s core level. That huge energy release from the Earth’s core at the end of the last year was some kind of a start signal indicating the transition of the Earth’s internal energy into a new active phase.

Intensification of the energy processes in the Earth’s core can modulate the geomagnetic field which, through a chain of physical processes at the ionosphere – atmosphere boundary level, generates acoustic-gravity waves the audible range of which has been heard by people in the form of a frightening low-frequency sound in different parts of our planet.

In both cases, even though the causes of acoustic-gravity waves are of a quite understandable geophysical nature, they are indicative of the expected significant increase in solar activity and the geodynamic activity of our planet. There is no doubt that processes in the core rule the internal energy of our planet, therefore, we should expect by the end of 2012 a sharp rise in strong earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and extreme weather events with peak levels in 2013 – 2014.

Now, considering the idea that the good doctor is onto something here, there still remains the issue of all the fakes that have flooded Youtube.

This brings a possible conspiracy to light in the form of a cover up. Was this sudden surge in fake videos the product of someone trying squash the momentum and stop people from digging deeper into the subject?

In this write-up from “Rabbithole2”, the subject of “poisoning the well” is examined and although this site seems way out there, they do show some startling statistics to support the claim.

Is There An Effort to Poison The Well?

There is no doubt a huge amount of fake “Strange Sounds” videos saturating Youtube; But where did all these fake videos come from?

Between January 13th through the 16th I watched in disbelief as several dozen fake videos under the title “Strange Sounds” were uploaded to Youtube at the rate of 4-5 per hour.

Notice that the graph for Google Trends starts shooting right up on the 10th when people actually started searching Google for the term “Strange Sounds” and then around the 13th is when all the fake videos started being uploaded like they were going out of style.

In my 18 years on the internet and 6 years being an avid Youtuber I have not seen anything that even comes anywhere near close to this.

Either we just witnessed the world’s largest coordinated hoax that should be put in the Guinness Book, or somebody is trying to cover something up.

How To Discredit the Real Videos – Poison The Well

If a person, or group of persons, wanted to cover up something as big as strange ominous sounds in the sky, and they wanted to do it in the age of digital cameras, the only way to be able to accomplish that goal is by creating a massive slew of fakes and injecting that poison into the stream of information, thus discrediting all the videos.

There is no other possible way to cover up something like that unless you shut down Youtube or delete user accounts but if you shut down accounts that causes a whole other problem because then that lends credibility to the video uploader.

The best, easiest, and “least messy” method would be to saturate Youtube with so many fakes that nobody could tell what was real and what was fake without extensive time consumption and effort. If a person was to try and sift through all the videos, probably now well over 100, it would be a nightmare.

For those who don’t know what the age old term “Poison the Well” means, here is the definition;

Poisoning the well is a rhetorical device where adverse information about a target is preemptively presented to an audience, with the intention of discrediting or ridiculing everything that the target person is about to say.

While I’m not one to follow something initiated by Alex Jones, occasionally you can find some truth in what he says. In this case the question is, who would plant the fake videos? Is Alex on the right track or is this just another preposterous drama being played out?

While at least 50% of all the videos uploaded on the subject are apparent hoaxes, the fact still remains that a number of the 100+ examples are likely as real as the nose on your face. While some will never be convinced and I think this stems more readily from fear than anything else, we have to begin to consider the idea that we are experiencing something legitimate and tangible.
