AIBU to think that anyone who hears Laurel is playing a practical joke? It's definitely yanny!

I can only hear Yanny and I tried several times.

I think because I’m English I will only hear Yanny, perhaps those who speak with the American accent can decipher Yanny...

I guess this thread will tell me if I’m right!

And now I can hear 'Yanny' what magic is this?

When I hear one, the other just isn't there at all. Are we being pranked?

I heard laurel first but I listened to it a few times and I can hear both tbh ..sometimes yanny in a nasally American accent and sometimes laurel in a more British accent.
It's an odd one.

It's the blue/gold dress again, but audible instead of visual!

Oh no, this is the colour dress all over again isn’t it. I am completely baffled at those saying they hear Laurel Confused

Laurel, I don't get Yanny at all.

I'm a bit scared to listen to it again in case I hear Yanny for some reason 😂

Yanny. Every time.

How can we be so split on this? Wonder what makes us hear different words? I have listened to it 20 times or so to try and make out Laurel but all I hear is Yanny
