Apparently Yellowstone National Park has had it’s share of strange sounds. I came across an amazing article called “Overhead Sounds in the Vicinity of Yellowstone Lake” from Science Magazine, 1893, by Edwin Linton. To my amazement and shock, witnesses claimed to have heard what may be metallic sky sounds.
This account from Shohone Lake by Professor S.A. Forbes:
That’s one wild description! These historical accounts use amazing descriptive terms that have to be read a few times to imagine what the heck they’re talking about. Are they describing metallic sky noises that we’ve seen in videos?
From an account of Edwin Linton:
What struck me in this description is “It appeared to be a rather indefinite, reverberating sound, characterized by a slight metallic resonance.” Wow! Could there be some truth to all the metallic sound reports happening today?
You can read the whole article here.
Yellowstone Park has 1,000 to 3,000 earthquakes each year. They’re small and are rarely felt, but the region is one of the most seismically active in the United States. Could metallic sounds be related to seismic activity?



Simply an amazing find!
These articles and the other old ones as well. I believe we can all say without a doubt that at this point that U.A.O’s (at least certain ones) are not a new occurrence.
I must admit, when I first heard a U.A.O months ago (the thirty seconds it lasted before disappearing and not returning since), I was frightened.
Today however, I find the topic to be most interesting and this journey for discovering the source is becoming quite the adventure.
Keep up the great work Jay Man.
Wonderful info! Great research!
I have to say I totally agree…I have been thinking for awhile now that the sounds are related to seismic activity and the shifting of the earth, causing the “groaning”. I believe something is going to happen on a massive scale…a time of many, huge earthquakes and volcanoes worldwide and all of these sounds are just the foreshadowing.
I am not sure what or why these disasters are coming but I feel certain they are on the way. The earth has been amping up towards something big for awhile now and there are many theories out there as to why. I think it is important we pay attention to these sounds as a warning and just be prepared.
It would make sense for these sounds to be heard in Yellowstone so long ago since it is an area of such high seismic activity. I wonder if evidence of these sounds could be found throughout history in other such areas…
there doesn´t seem to be any more quakes than usual, and no “amping up” stuff either (besides global warming)
I you check quake statistics everything´s normal right now..
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eqarchives/year/eqstats.php
also, there seem to be many types of “mysterious sounds” so it´s unlikely they are all caused by the same kind of things.
(humming, metallic, groaning, booming, high-pitched etc)
maybe this whole thing is a media phenomenon, instead of a natural one…
I checked and I haven´t seen anything weird on a planetary level that seems to match this thing.(the sun, the magnetosphere, volcanic activity, astronomy news)
maybe it´s just that there where a couple weird sounds so people started searching…I mean, I would guess mysterious sounds wouldn´t be so rare, considering the world is a complex mysterious place)
or
maybe those ARE the trumpets of the apocalypse and we will all die soon along with the planet…
who knows?
people haven´t provided a solid proof for alien ufos after so many years…
so maybe this will remain a mystery for a very long time
Smashing find. Perhaps now the mainstream media will cave in to our demand for answers without dismissing all of us as full of it or tinfoil hat-wearers.
In my research I’ve heard about this type of sound being heard in the past too, forget the source. Research the galactic alignment (earth is moving in line with the black hole disc at the center of our galaxy). This event is affecting the EM field which is precipitating a pole shift, and also is causing the Sun to eject more solar winds which are buffetting the EM field. Many stresses upon the EM field at this time which is directly tied to the earth’s core is the best explaination for the sounds. I think the core is being slowed down and/or altered in it’s course which causes friction with the mantle and that is what we are hearing. How long this continues and how severe will the sounds and effects be who knows.
I also hear other types of sounds in the sky other than the typical groaning/humming, referred to as “the trumpets” from other videos with a flash of light accompanied with them as they end, almost as if they are marking their point-of-origin. These I find much more alarming and inexplicable as they cannot be easily explained as the groaning/humming. The noise does indeed sound like a trumpet blast and are they very loud and long. Could these be the Trumpets of Revelation warning us of what is to come?
last week our local weatherman was saying something about increased sunspot activity –
actually it was about the Aurora Borealis being visible more southwards than normal – even in Western New York state. and it was due to the sun –
I didn’t catch exactly what he said, and I didn’t have time to listen as I was getting ready for work – and I still haven’t researched it – (haven’t had the time – worked all weekend and picking up extra shifts) -
perhaps if sunspots or sun’s magnetic field is acting up lately, it could explain the recent spike in the UAOs.
just got this from my sister via email:
http://earthsky.org/space/strongest-solar-radiation-storm-in-7-years-expected-january-24
(sigh) There’s an alignment every year on the Winter solstice…..
Here’s a lovely piece by Ian O’Neill – an astrophysicist (a scientist – not some random dude with an uninformed opinion) – regarding polar shift and geomagnetic reversal: http://www.universetoday.com/18977/2012-no-geomagnetic-reversal/
As for the Earth’s slowing rotation: http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/misc/tides.html
Again, it isn’t cataclysmic.
You know, I certainly HOPE 2012 brings some enlightenment……..
As Yellowstone is one of the world’s largest volcanoes and rife with earthquake activity, I would think it odd if there were an *absence* of sounds being emitted. THAT would be something to take note of. Hell, if I walked outside right now at 2am into the suburban area in which I live, and I didn’t feel vibrations and hear buzzing, humming, rattling, aircraft, construction, traffic and other random sounds, I’d be very worried.
The one thing that bothers me the most about this whole “strange sounds” thing is that the bandwagon people immediately jump on totally ignores that which has been scientifically (by real scientists) proven/researched/monitored daily for decades. I’ve seen the masses making absolutely incorrect comments and assumptions regarding polar shift, CMEs, “Planet X”, etc., etc., Ad nauseam. All of these things are very well explained by experts (real ones, not some armchair philosopher on youtube), and the information is literally a click away. You’d think with google at one’s fingertips, going to the NASA, Space Weather, and other legitimate resources written by scientists would be common place. They don’t even have to GO to the library and research (like we did in the olden days of the 80s and early 90s ). If they wanted to take it a step further, they CAN call HARRP and speak to them. I have a family member who utilizes HARRP’s research for HAM radio projects and he calls/e-mails there all the time with questions (they are NOT out to get us by the way, but that’s a debate for another time). But no, all that would take some effort…
I saw a comment earlier – I wish I could remember exactly which site – where a rational individual said something very true (and I paraphrase) tell a village that every night at 11:30pm there is a scent of oranges in the air….and watch how many people report the smell of oranges every night thereafter.
I.e.: just tonight a facebook friend was in a panic because she had heard “the sound” (DUN DUN DUUUUN!), which she described as a “rumbling like thunder”. Apparently she hadn’t watched the 10pm weather because we had a line of thunderstorms come through tonight (Chicago winter – it happens). She felt silly when she was informed that a storm had just passed.
The power of suggestion. It’s STRONG. Strong enough to be dangerous.
Don’t like it JM.. don’t like it at all mate…
If these sounds were heard in the past too, then the possibility of them being real and natural increases significantly..
Great find (where ta hell you find all these references?)
NOW I’m sure you’re behind all these! You’re the guy that aligns the Galaxy, You effect the EM field, YOU slow down Earths core, and YOU sound the trombets in your free time. I suspect that you’re the Jolly Green Giant too but I will not reveal this info to the general public, I’ll keep it for us..
The thought of the movie industry using YouTube videos to commercialize movies seems kinda illogical or just stupid. If SOPA passed then YouTube would be gone and the MPAA supports SOPA so it would be pointless to commercialize on something your trying to shut down. So something is definitely happening around/in the world. I’m not saying it’s aliens, but it’s probably aliens T_T
The movie industry does this every day. They also use Facebook, Myspace, and every other social media outlet in existence to promote their product.
Hey guys, this is a music piece I made using only these noises found in the “sounds in the sky” videos on YouTube. The sounds in the piece are completely dry without any effects or equalization. I thought this would be a good thread to post and shed a new light on the phenomena. Enjoy!
I’ve been thinking – the “metallic” sounds – Earth does contain a LOT of metal – metal that is mined – metal under the ground –
The groaning is probably seismic activity – after all, what is seismic activity – plate techtonics at work – a fault line is usually two land masses scraping against each other. – Solid ground, solid granite scraping together – of course this is not going to soundLESS – and if a land mass contains metal – well, wouldn’t we hear METALLIC SCRAPINGS?
I really think this is what is going on – but it still is unsettling to hear!
This makes sense. But the fact it’s not happening in seismic areas and is all over is what’s troubling to me.
yes JM – that too!
(dont’ have an answer for that one)
Guys, i live in Greece.. I’ve lived several quakes up to 6+.. they don’t sound metallic at all, trust me.. you just hear a roar if you’re close enough, if it’s more than 50 km away you hear nothing.
Also metal in the earth is not like metal in a junkyard. You don’t get scrapings and such stuff, metal is in rocks and takes quite some work to separate it from them.
oh, and if these metallic sounds have been heard in the past – say in Biblical times, before people understood what happens during earthquakes and volcanoes, those sounds could have been intrepreted by those unscientific peoples as being the trumpets of –what? – GOD and his heralds – the angels – and after hearing these noises, an earthquake occurs – why? God must be angry! – so we have the birth of Apocolyptic Trumpets heralding doom! And once it got written into “the Bible” – a legend became fact.
-disclaimer – these are MY intrepretations, not Jay-Man’s, so don’t jump on him! And I mean no disrespect to any Bible followers.
Nikola Tesla was Ionizing the upper atmosphere in the early 1890s, trying to figure out how to transmit power anywhere in the world. HAARP is also capable of Ionizing the upper atmosphere. I think the sound heard by that dude in 1893 is related to the ionization of the upper atmosphere. Seems like a good chance its related.
Out of interest did YT user hfoded mention how he came across these documents? They are awesome and read legite , its just that i dont find myself perusing british meteorological society journals from the 1860s too often, but maybe thats just me.

Well I believe the earth goes around the sun and every 5200 yrs we are in a central magnetic axis. There’s a great axis above the planet which make all stars and planets move. We pass through it and while that happens We won’t see the sun for 60-70hrs as we will be inside the magnetic axis. Until the earth re-emerges from the axis. Then the sun will show its self but it might be a different sun. earth is reborn into a new age. Heres another theory about the sounds. The Dogon tribe was visited by our ancient an-sisters from space ….from a far out black star Sirius. The sound is similar to what the Dogon know watch this video then make your own mind up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGHDH2uX0Ys
Hi Jay Man- Fascinating article! I’ve been trying to find info on metallic sounds (which is what we heard) and the article you found about Yellowstone is really, really interesting! Especially interesting because it seems to show that these sounds may not be new and that they also may be tied to seismic activity. I’ve posted it elsewhere on your site but I’m going to post the recording we made here again because I think it may especially apply:
What’s really interesting is that we heard metallic sounds 6 hours after the quake at McHenry, IL. But even more so that we heard it in Fish Creek WI, which is in the Door County Peninsula- the Niagara Escarpment runs right through there and ends at the Wisconsin-IL border where the quake took place.
Your post makes me wonder even more if there’s some kind of connection between the metallic sounds we heard and the earthquake.
Mike
Thanks Mike, I did a story.

I showed my dater these videos when they first came out. Instantly he brushed them off as nothing claiming “I heard those all the time working up north, its just the sound of the earth moving”
He worked far up north in Canada bc
