    There’s an episode of Family Guy that Peter and Chris go on a “spiritual quest” into the woods and when they stop to rest, one of them asks, “Hey, if a tree falls and no ones around, does it make a sound?” To which all of the now talking trees answer, “Oh hell yes, Scott fell the other day and hasn’t stopped bitching about it since.” Then the trees play the worlds smallest violin. Hilarious. 😂

      @@richardtherichard26 You're right the air would still get displaced but in order for a sound specifically to happen there HAS to be something to percieve it. The sensation that is produced by stimulation of the ears by vibrations transmitted through any medium; that is the definition of a sound. The energy produced and oscillation of the medium around it will happen no matter what, I think that's where people are getting confused.

      This argument doesn’t annoy me. It infuriates me. The question is not about sound because you can define it differently... it’s that if there is no being to observe something, dose it exist. So what about thinks like planets out of our solar system. People without telescope definitely can’t perceive it. So did it only come in to existence when scientists discovered it? So then we had to have created the universe because nothing existed before we observed it. It’s stupid. And something else to note... the whole thing where the world changes based on how you perceive it. No it doesn’t... your perception changes not the world.

    You explained it pretty well. About the Copenhagen thingie: we humans use nightvision in a green tint, meaning that we can see the slight differences of green in darkness much easier than red for example. The reason for that is because our eyes evolved to see predators in the jungle easier. So, everyone's green is the same green. Also, plants are green for a reason too. :)

    I disagree with conflating “sound” and “hearing”. Sound is the vibration of the physical world, and hearing is an interpretation of that vibration. A falling tree produces sound, regardless of witnesses, who may or may not hear it.

    • @chraiflame6631
      @chraiflame6631 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      The words "sound" and "hearing" are just fuzzy human concepts. Their meaning is not universal, they are subject to the interpretation of the individual. For you "hearing" is the act of translating vibration, but for others it might simply denote the ability to translate vibrations. For someone who speaks a different language it might be yet another thing. It's just semantics so arguing about it is a bit futile.

Yes, it’s true that terms can mean different things, but my real point is that there are (at least) TWO phenomena here: the vibration of the air, and the perception of it by a mind. Using different words for the two makes the conversation more useful, even if someone would prefer different terms from the ones I would use.

    "If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" This is like saying, "if I didn't experience it, it didn't happen."
    Yes. Yes it does. My uncle had a GardePro trail cam placed in the woods of his 8 acre farm, at the time, loving to catch nature in their natural settings (wild turkeys, deer, skunks, racoons and opossums) when one morning his trail camera caught an old dead maple tree fall, and though we caught about 3 feet of the top of the tree land 15-20 feet from the trail cam, after seeing the downed tree, walking out to routinely check on the trail cam, we wanted to see if we caught when the tree fell, and lo and behold we did...though we only got the top of the the 30 foot tree, the video caught the noises before and after the tree landed. First, There was a very loud crack, like a large fire cracker then a loud sweeping sound when the tree fell through other neighboring trees and a loud thud when it landed, shaking the trail cam, too. So, technically or officially, no one was around. I'm trying to find this video to share it, here. To Prove no one was around and it still made a noise.

    • @ThePuschkin1986
      @ThePuschkin1986 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      but the 'sound' the tree made was only there because that trail cam had a sound recording device, similar to the human ear it senses vibration in the air and transmits or stores that information as an electrical signal. when you review the footage, that electrical signal is displayed through speakers which turn it to air vibrations again, which in turn your ear can perceive and send that information to your brain which interpretes it as 'sound'

Suddenly, movement in the woods caught my eye and I watched with my mouth hanging open as a small, healthy looking green tree fell without making a single sound. I had heard that question/thought experiment before and knew 100% in my 12 year old mind at that moment that no…. if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, it does not make a sound.

      that achually makes sense as the Reverend would undoubltly believe God perceives everything thus the Tree always makes a sound, in fact. this would be the bridge between idealism and materialism. Ironically.

    The Copenhagen interpretation relates to the collapse of the wave function whenever a measurement/interaction happens, it doesn't say we all live in our own universe.

    • @Syphirioth
      @Syphirioth 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well the waveform is only visible when particles are moving. As soon as you stop the movement the waveform is still there. But you no longer are able to observe that.
      The same way a picture doesnt say shit about what happened before and after the moment that picture was taken.
      Also the moment we measure something we are pinpoiting a moment in time. Whatever we observe or measure is in that moment alone.
      Also recording does not count as something usefull. Cause those are frames per second. All moments in time after eachother.
      We simply not able to observe anything else then moments/points in time.

    It comes down to the individual’s definition of “sound.”
    If it’s depending on someone to hear it, than no. If it’s simply the presence of sound waves, than yes.
