The Hum is a generic name for a series of phenomena involving a persistent and invasive low-frequency humming noise not audible to all people. Hums have been reported in various geographical locations.
The Hum is most often described as sounding somewhat like a distant idling diesel engine. Typically, the Hum is difficult to detect with microphones, and its source and nature are hard to localize.
It was during the 1990s that the Hum phenomenon began to be reported in North America and to be known to the American public.
Chances are, if I know you, I’ve thrown this into conversation at some point or another. Nerd life.
OMG I HEAR THE HUM ALL THE TIME. that and a high pitched frequency… what is it?!
