Yanny or Laurel?!

[CaliforniaDream]

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

How old is everyone and what do they hear? Decade of don't want to be too specific.

37 Laurel.

33 Yanny

All the OAPs I inflicted it on hear Yanny

DS(5) heard Laurel

DF 65 hears Laurel

Yanny I'm 49.

Yanny 35. I even listened on the clip that changes the frequency to demonstrate how it works and still can only hear Yanny.

I thought this was going to be a baby names thread

snap :D

Agghh. Just listened to it on another website & it's definitely laurel now.

Laurel!

I only hear Laurel

Ah the cause for our most recent family bust up.

I can only hear Yanny and have pretty much reduced my DP to tears of frustration because no matter how many times he shows me videos from different sources, it's still the same answer.

It's been a fun afternoon though

When I play it on my iPad it is Laurel every time and I had no idea how anyone could hear Yanny. However they've just played it on the radio and it was very clearly Yanny.

It's clearly laurel, to me anyway.

Started off hearing Yanny and then started to hear Laurel before the clip ended! Thought it was deliberate so went back to replay the clip and second time I could only hear Laurel. Strange.

Tried it six times, can only hear Yanny

Laurel - don't get yanny or anything like it

I made my DC (8, 6 and 5) listen as well and they all said yanny.

Ofgs my dd just came to try this out on me. Apparently I'm stupid because I don't hear Laurel 😂

So I listened again with 18 year old DS, said to him “See. It’s Laurel”
He said “It’s Yanny..”

I hear Laurel, clear as anything, DD(5) hears yanny

Laurel, plain as day, not a hint of Yanny.

Totally bemused by this!

I listened to it on two different websites and on one it was unmistakably Yanny and on the other unmistakably Laurel.

😂😂😂 at Balonz

This morning all I could hear was Yanny said in a high pitched voice.
This evening I heard Yanaurel at first then Laurel in a low drawl.
Both times I listened to the clip on my iPhone.
All the kids can hear is Yanny.
I'm going to listen again.

This as probably already been posted but this is supposedly an explanation?

Yanny, in an American accent. Cannot understand how it could possibly sound like Laurel?
