All The Juicy Buzz The World Is Talking About
The Taos Hum is one of the top ten unexplained phenomena. Well actually some say it is.
This phenomenon happens in different places of the world and we usually add the name of the place in front of “hum”, like “the Taos hum” or “the Bristol hum”.
A “hum” is the name given to a low-frequency sound that some people hear at some places of the world without being able to find the source of this noise. It sounds like a humming noise and some studies have proven that it was impossible to record it using a microphone.
What seems weird is that some websites like the Taos Hum Page have some recordings of this humming sound…how is it possible to have some recordings if it is described as impossible to record ?

I, for one, KNOW that it’s not shared hysteria. I was experiencing the “Hum” for over a year before I even mentioned it to anyone. I have never even heard of the Taos (or any other) Hum in my life, until today when I bumped into an item about it. I just thought someone was running a large piece of equipment somewhere, all the time. The fact that I live in the country does not mean there can’t be machinery around. I DOES seem like somebody’s leaving a diesel truck running for hours and hours on end, and it runs steadily, not like a real truck would run, maybe a bit ragged now and then, but smoothly. and non-stop. I just tried to ignore it. I live just North of Ithaca, New York.
Well, we’ve gotten it in Spring, Texas, just north of Houston’s airport. It comes, it goes and just like Ithaca it’s quite constant. I can also report that depending upon wind direction, we can hear idling Diesel Engines from the rail road tracks. These are idleing locomotives, but the noise they make is quite different from what I would refer to as the “ambient” hum which is at a much lower frequency. My wife just reported that she heard a noise similar to a pile driver in the early a.m., (a noise she’s familiar with as she’s a New Orleans native and when they build a high rise in NOLA, the pile drivers can be heard for months on end), but she said the cadence and deep tone weren’t correct for a pile driver either.
Sadly, these noises have become more pronounced over the last few months which has interrupted my sleep on a number of occasions. I now routinely awaken around 2:30 a.m. and just listen. It’s quite eerie.
The persistant “hum” is here in Las Vegas Nevada. I initially believed their was a vehicle idling, but I could not find one. The sound is non-stop and borders on driving you nuts, the sound is detectable by others in my family. ear plugs will not work, as it is a low pitched not affected by the NRR delivered by the plugs. Often the sound is somewhat like a diesel engine or a pool pump, definitly mechanical sounding.
