Well this is certainly confusing. Here is a video claiming the strange sound heard in NYC before Sandy was the wind going thru the top of the new Freedom Tower.
Wind through the Freedom Tower makes sense. The top is open allowing the strong hurricane wind to vibrate the beams. The architects had better hope the design of this building doesn’t make it a tuning fork.
So what are these two videos from Toronto and an unknown location not in the city about? Toronto has tall buildings but not as tall as Freedom Tower and I doubt any new construction is open at the top. Why would the sound, however subtle, be in a rural area.
It is not likely these two videos were faked given they were filmed during the storm. Maybe it’s a coincidence, maybe it’s warning sirens in the distance, maybe they are dubbed. Until another convincing Sandy sound video surfaces I’m calling this case closed.
Not a whole lot of “strange sound” videos out there. Actually there are tons, but they are mostly fakes. They include full stereo overlays, copies of Kiev, copies of War of the Worlds, people recording things that cannot be heard, people recording machinery, people reposting really good examples from last year and claiming it just happened…and on and on. I was hoping the constant stream of bogus “strange sound” videos had stopped since last year, but no….
The most convincing recordings are the Sandy sounds. This is because they were recorded in three places by three people at the same approximate time. Hard to fake that. We’re paying close attention to this particular noise because it has no precedent.
Maybe There Really is a Post-Sandy Strange Sound, Maybe Not
This video below was shot in Illinois on November 6th and has the simple description of “Never hear this before, can someone tell me what it might be?”. They have no other related videos and no mention of HAARP anywhere. Initially I dismissed it as a siren but then my curiosity was piqued as I wondered whether it was similar to the Pre-Sandy sounds. It is a very poor recording obviously done on a cheap phone and if it was a fake they would have done a better job. I’ve compared it to all three Pre-Sandy videos below and maybe it is the same. It has a similar pitch and is constant. Maybe it’s a stretch but it’s now documented here. What can I say, there is nothing else out there to analyse.
Compare it to the Pre-Sandy sound in Toronto.

plus: sounds genuine, person has no related posts on YT, bad recording, simple curiosity, no mention of HAARP, no label with the word “strange”, categorized under gaming (lol), he likes games. minus: Short, could be anything
Are they the same?
POST-SANDY
PRE-SANDY
By the way, perhaps I was too judgmental of the deleted video from Moose Jaw in the post below. Maybe she deleted it because she didn’t want the attention. It did seem real. The author had no other related videos.

Trippy/Strange/Weird Clouds and Noise
This video below filmed in New Zealand on November 8th is a bit hard to describe. The author says “Clouds looked much more trippy/strange/weird than the footage makes out but what is that noise? There is no heavy traffic near by and cars don’t even sound like that haha plus it sounded like it was coming from above.”
If you turn up the volume and listen carefully about half way through you hear the Pre-Sandy sound. Compare it to the New York recording below it. At first I couldn’t tell what sound he was talking about and then I realized what it was. And also the clouds are completely natural and referred to as Cirrocumulus clouds.
Believability Scale:| | | | | | | | | |
plus: person has no related posts on YT, apologizes for quality. minus: Mention of HAARP, label with the word “strange”, ran around Youtube asking people like Sheilaaliens to look at the video, has a user name with the word Aliens in it and seems hellbent on promoting it.
POST-SANDY You can really hear the similarity at the 20 second mark.
PRE-SANDY

No Strange Sound but Very Strange
This is unrelated but the most bizarre lightning I have ever seen. It looks kind of like sheet lightning but on crack. This video was recorded November 3rd somewhere in the US. The weird sky event caused the witness extreme anxiety. I can see why! This silent lightning went on for over three hours.
UPDATE: This video was removed by author proving it was indeed a fake.

This video was recorded in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada on November 5th.
The post below this one (here) cites examples of a strange sound heard right before hurricane Sandy hit. This video from Moose Jaw sounds very similar. I find it very curious that the sound heard before Sandy is being heard in Canada after the storm. The witness says “We don’t have any alarms in our small city so we dont know what these are.”

UPDATE/INSERT: And this video below is why it’s impossible to separate the fakes from what’s real. A reader of this blog must have seen the above video and decided to create a stupid fake using the War of the Worlds soundtrack. Unfortunately some people without any knowledge of “strange sound” fakery will think this is real. Sad. If you follow this blog I have debunked almost all strange sound videos except for constant jet roar noise. I can smell a fake a mile away. If you fake videos I will do my best to expose your video as such. What if the pre- and post- Sandy sounds are real and what if they’re a warning. Is it possible the Sandy sounds are a result of the ever increasing extreme weather. If so this fake muddies our pursuit of meaning and truth about strange sounds. It won’t be funny if that ominous high-pitched sound becomes a regular occurrence.

And here in Calgary last night.
He says in the description: “I was gonna tape me walking an out of nowhere this huge noise just came from the sky [snip] i also couldn’t hear the noise cuz for some reason i couldn’t hear the high pitched noise only the low thunder like sound and even then only for a minute an i had my head phones in to keep on beat.”
I will attempt to translate. I think he is saying he was taping himself walking while listening to music through headphones. Suddenly a loud noise came out of nowhere which he could hear as thunder through the music. He didn’t realize the high pitched sound was recorded until later. READ ON…
This is a really interesting short video of a strange sound heard in New York before Sandy hit. The person who captured this strange sound said it could be heard all over the city. It is described as coming from the sky and ground and sounding like a machine with a constant hum. Very eerie!
And here it is again in Toronto.
And again here in an unknown location obviously not in the city. Kinda kills the wind through the skyscraper idea. Unfortunately this person reposts other people’s videos without sourcing the original with information. If you know the original source with info please post it in comments and I will replace it.
There are many posts on this blog regarding strange sonic booms heard all over the world but this is the first time we actually get to hear one. I couldn’t imagine what others have described as extremely loud sky booms until now. Amazingly here is one caught on a security camera. The witness says he was nearly blinded by a light when 20 seconds later he heard this incredible example of a meteor boom. We can’t really attribute this to anything but a meteor due to the fact there were meteor showers over Northern California the day before. He says the roar was unlike any thunder he has ever heard. Can’t argue with him on that.
