Ive always wondered what would happen if you lined up 10 megaphones in a row and yell into them, today I put that idea to the test! That literal feedback loop was crazy loud!

1:08 Permanent hearing damage occurs around 120 decibels
3:15 Yeah it's kinda disappointing we only hit 119.4. We were so close!
Even at a Korn concert with rubber ear protection I still lost some hearing lol
he's like: god damit i wanted to have permanent hering loss so bad!!!
Yessss! I got a way without going deaf!
At 90 dbs for 8 hours can slowly damage your ears.
@@Mikey-ym6ok 100 watt guitar amplifiers can easily trash your hearing. You should wear ear plugs if you're going to be close to them. The effect is less with some distance, but a long time period around them can out-weigh that.
Right on with that explanation! its also why sounds go quiet in vacuum but now I wonder how loud of sound I can make in my 3atm chamber? ;)
Cody'sLab Hi Cody! How are you?
I was thinking of the same thing. How loud can you go in a pressure chamber? Maybe you should do a video about it ;) not sure how to Test it though. Dont think the soundmeterthingy works
That would be awesome Cody!

No super shockwave. Well that was a disappointing episode of myth busters.
Just to add insult to injury, when he said he'd destroy a wine glass with a megaphone I was expecting him to do it with a resonate frequency. Instead he dropped the megaphone on the glass.
@@clayrusso4913 Not possible. Space is an almost vacuum. Sound doesn't travel though space so, you can't destroy the moon with a loud noise. The Earth however. Maybe. I am not going to test that one, since that would kill everyone.
Naah, the reality was exactly inline with my expectations.
@@The482075 i guess destroying the moon would maybe destroy the earth.
We havent tried it so i dont know.
... yet.

Now I want to see Bart make this feedback loop in the Simpsons universe, where science actually works in the way it's supposed to: for maximum entertainment
It would spawn a sharknado of course.
I'm really glad you tried this

I have seriously thought of doing this experiment for 20+ years, since seeing that episode. Bravo sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar.
There should be 15 megaphones. That's how many Bart used. It wouldn't make a difference in the end but accuracy is key.
It’s to prevent getting in trouble

3:12 Probably the reason that you got a louder sound with the megaphones in a loop was that they were all feedback-squealing at once, and so their combined sound was louder than hooking them together in a line and measuring just the front one's volume. :D

3:02 ow mine ears!
120 is the amount of sound that a jet plain makes as it takes off and the volume at which I can shout without putting an exesive amount of strain on my self
whats a plains don fly. planes do
Shouting in someone's ear is 110 db. The loudest human voice recorded is 129 dB. (Jill Drake) Maybe plains make 120 db at takeoff, but a *plane* is closer to 150 dB at 25 meters. Any lower decibel readings were recorded at a distance of hundreds of feet.
Why would it even be possible that you could make as much noise as a jet engine at takeoff? They are moving way more air than you could ever conceivably do.

Iman smart a33
a megaphone speaker can only get to a certain level, lets say 90db, so having another megap emitting a 90db in he microphone its still gonna come out the second one as 90db its not going to magically make it louder. isn't this common sense?
2pvideo I
+TheDeduction Surely only if they happen to be in phase, and surely that a) has its limits and b) only really works for a clean sine wave.
This would seem to explain the feedback loop being so much louder though.
Yes, it is, however it's fun to try.
It's called exponential growth; if sound is increased up to 90 db with a megaphone, then the amplified sound should theoretically be multiplied by that amount of db for each megaphone, meaning it wouldn't stay the same... Theoretically
common sense but not for all people (Depending on your level of education and age)
This is exactly what I expected, and, you're exactly right about why it isn't that much louder. The amplifiers clip. The first megaphone is pretty loud, but still coherent. the next megaphone is louder, but clipped.(saturation distortion) After that, the rest are just a square wave, at the fundamental frequency of your voice. The first 2 megaphones are loud, the rest of the 8, are maybe half again louder, than the first two. As for breaking the wine glass, the only way that would happen, is if the resonant frequency of the wine glass matched the resonant frequency of the horn. Otherwise, there just isn't enough amplifier power, to do it. you would have better luck, finding the right note on a trumpet, that matches the resonant frequency of the glass, even though, the amplifier in a megaphone is ~10 watts, and a person can barely blow more than 1/2 watt into a brass instrument, breaking glasses is all about resonance.
For every time you double the number of speakers you add 3db to the volume. It gets a lot of speakers real fast, after doubling it 20 times you have over 1.000.000 speakers... That is the number of speakers you need to go from 60db to 120db.
You got me with the broken glass of wine, totally unexpected for me hahaha

He's that guy in math problems buying 10 megophones.
As an electrical engineer, I have to say that if one megaphone was capable of amplifying another it would be a clear indication that some components were heavily overspecified. You want everything at the limit of amplification with acceptable distortion. Anything beyond that is wasted expense.
As a student who's trying to learn about electrical/mechanical engineering, do you have any tips for the future?
Tooltip Tinkerer Take your education seriously.
I don't know anything you said but you sound smart so I liked
Pixssy Same😂😂😂
It is saturation. They can only produce output so loud. Once it hits that level, no matter how loud your input is, output is going to remain same, but distorted (non linearity)

Lance Mora i agree obviusly thats why it didnt wirk :(
AND he lined them up perfectly, these guys didn't line them up in any way good
Famix Still wouldn't work, they don't work that way, they take the input sound and output it at a set level. A loud sound going into. The megaphone will still only come out at the megaphones set volume.
Lance Mora so it's not correct!

Haven't started the video.
I can only imagine the feedback loop.
The reason it doesn't get much louder is because the electronics in each megaphone compresses the sound and levels out the input from the microphone. That's why you can whisper into it and it's still amplified by the speaker. Conversely, loud shouting doesn't increase the volume much because that's brought to the same relative level or decibel range as the whisper. The same 144 year-old technology is used in traditional telephone receivers in order to amplify the sound. That's also what gives it its "squashed" megaphone sound. So since each megaphone is compressing the sound, when you talk into one and have that go to the next it's only going to compress the volume and output whatever maximum it's set to and so on and so forth. Each megaphone is going to physically block the sound somewhat. Any increase in volume is going to be from the sound bleeding from each megaphone, but the increase will be by diminishing results, not multiplicative.

*GENIUS*
Season One, Episode Two. Bart the Genius. Classic. 😊
It's not just the limitations of it's amplifying ability but more so the limitations of it's microphone. It's built w/ the sensitivity to handle a voice level input. At a certain point you're overwhelming it's ability to make meaningful sense of the signal, overloading the gain stage & causing distorting. Plus the amplified noise becomes so loud that it feeds back into it's own mic & you get...feedback.

As expected, it works about as well as trying to make an air compressor (like from a jet engine) by lining up a bunch of fans so that each blows air into the back of the next one.
That episode where Bart has then the Megaforce you called a 10 it's 15 megaphones

Adding another 5 megaphones, would only increase the sound by~3 db. the difference would barely be audible.

so you have stumbled on the basics of guitar amp distortion, there is a decibel limit to any circuit, speaker and pickup (think of a microphone that picks up metal vibrating instead of air). As you increase the gain, or volume before the final power amp you compress the electrical signal that is converted to sound in the vibration of the speakers, you reach a point eventually where what are known as harmonic frequencies are as loud as the main frequencies of the sound. many amps have multiple gain stages to increase this effect by pushing each stage till it begins compressing or clipping, then moving that distorted signal at a high volume that increases the signal gain to the point of clipping again, until finally to the power amplification section, which can also be pushed to the point of distorting, which also is pushing the speakers to the point of distorting due to the limits of the oscillation. this works differently in diode and tube circuits, in diodes it just hard limits the higher frequencies, or clips them in a harsh, buzzy, grindy, cold sound, where in tube amps it compresses the signal to make a more smooth rich warm sound.
I've waited approximately 25 years to see this tested. Thank you kindly sir :)
