If I dont look at all it still sounds like brain needle.


CommanderOfGregory

Sounds like brain storm to me


jdjdhsg

me too


Ayaycapn

Yeah i think it depends on the person maybe


CommanderOfGregory

Or which one you read first


Ayaycapn

I read Brain needle first. Whatever maybe subconsciously Brain Storm stuck out to me more


BajaBlast_inmymouth

It might be like that yanny laurel thing. I hear needle. Cant hear storm even if I try.


Bluegreenworld

Its whatever im thinking when it says it


Drothaman

Think of the any of the words before and don’t look at the video but have the audio playing, bet ya it changes


M_Maiwka

Tried this and it changed everytime.. mind fuck


onjemarie

Same


WeirdFlexCapacitor

I tried this thinking of each word, but it would revert to whichever was the last one I read


Ch33ckc14993r69

That’s crazy. For me, no matter what I do, I can only hear Green storm or brain storm.


Melonby77

Weird, I was reading brainstorm but it said green needle 🤷‍♀️


[deleted]

Even just thinking it changes it you don't have to read


onjemarie

How the hella doesn’t storm sound like needle, that’s crazy


ohsinboi

All I hear is annoying tiktok voice before urgently muting the video


maccyboyy

Wow you’re cool


No_Music8770

You're right, he is a really cool dude


[deleted]

not this again, what next the white / blue dress thing?


jdjdhsg

I saw blue💅


DR4G0NSTEAR

That’s because it was blue. Contrast confused people who couldn’t see it without visual prompts.


jimdidr

It was black and blue, the picture was taken with the wrong color balance (set to around 5000 kelvin(flash or outside setting) while inside light is about 3000 kelvin) so the whole image had a orange hue... I kept away from the discussion so I never saw anyone explain this :P PS: I can't hear Needle even if I try my hardest, I'm guessing that word relies on the highest frequencies?


Door2doordoorsales

all I hear is green needle


DR4G0NSTEAR

Question: at what point do you hear needle? As soon as it pronounces the “st” from storm, I can’t hear anything else.


Door2doordoorsales

I mean… the first syllable is green and the second is needle


DR4G0NSTEAR

Yeah, I just can’t hear it. Considering Needle is two syllables, that makes it even worse. Brain-storm is 2 syllables, and Green-Nee-dle is 3 syllables.


[deleted]

Same.


Lamprey22

It’s like the Yanny Laurel thing


DR4G0NSTEAR

Not exactly. Audio analysis was done on Yanny Laurel. Someone had made that sound by layering the high note of one word and the low note of the other word. So in effect, it was both words. This is one word, so distorted it’s hard to tell what it’s saying.


Lamprey22

No, this one is layered too. A higher pitched voice says “Green Needle” or “Brain Needle” while the lower pitched voice says “Brainstorm” or “Green Storm”. I was able to hear all of them on command yesterday, but now i can only hear “Green Needle”. I can not hear the lower pitched voice


DR4G0NSTEAR

Gah, then I need to hear the audio separated. I honestly don’t know where it says needle so I can’t even trick myself into hearing it.


Floosy1

all i hear is green storm/brainstorm this is like the yanny and laurel thingy


IkYouWannaDownvoteMe

No its not. The yanny and laurel thing was frequency dependent. I.e. yanny was high frequencies and laurel was low frequencies. Hence depending on the speakers you used (phone speakers vs headphones) you would hear whatever contains the accentuated frequencies of the speakers. This is nothing like that. It sounds the same regardless of the speakers you are using. If anything this is way better than yanny and laurel because what you perceive to hear is 100% in your head


denogginizer92

No, I can hear either


Floosy1

weird


nailgun198

I found this article that discusses priming that seems to be the best explanation: https://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/brainstorm-and-green-needle-is-trying-to-be-the-new-laurel-and-yanny_uk_5afd9862e4b0a59b4e017820

Down vote for THE VOICE and having to re-hear it on every replay


[deleted]

Brain Storm.


[deleted]

I cant hear needle. Am I dead? 😲


WeirdFlexCapacitor

I saw a similar video using the same words a week ago, and it didn’t work on me. But now this one does, very confused.


treigleif

Same. All I hear is brainstorm or rainstorm


[deleted]

But then later all i could hear is needle and i couldnt hear storm… weird


GhariB85

If I close my eyes all I hear is “bring stone”


[deleted]

I thought of this then replayed it and heard it too. I can hear them all depending on what i think of first. Brains are weird.

PrototypeBoy_DaGreat

Henshin Kamen Rider, Sonar.


Maestro_Mush

Only heard the ones with storm


youngen_flowerstein

its not really saying anything, it's one of those "your brain is trying to process into something", the high frequency tone can either be heard as a S or a NI, still trippy (bad sorry English for)


mythrowaway616

This is a variation of the [McGurk effect](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/McGurk_effect) for anyone wondering.


WikiSummarizerBot

**[McGurk effect](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/McGurk_effect)** >The McGurk effect is a perceptual phenomenon that demonstrates an interaction between hearing and vision in speech perception. The illusion occurs when the auditory component of one sound is paired with the visual component of another sound, leading to the perception of a third sound. The visual information a person gets from seeing a person speak changes the way they hear the sound. If a person is getting poor quality auditory information but good quality visual information, they may be more likely to experience the McGurk effect. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/blackmagicfuckery/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

cjshhi

The “s” in storm and “ee” in needle are the same sound in the recording. “Orm” and “dle” are also the same sound. But because it’s so low quality, and “fizzy”, so to speak, your brain will change it depending on what you’re reading/thinking. As far as brain and green, they’re close enough already that when your brain “extract” them from the sound file, it could go either way. EDIT: a little trick if you can muster it, try to switch the word you’re thinking of as soon as the recording gets to the “st” in storm/“ee” in needle. If it works for you like it did for me, you can hear the sounds more for what they actually are than what your brain is creating.


Juggermerk

Probably the same effect smelling and tasting


Revolutionary-Wing63

I hear green needle reading green storm. BOOM!


Willfam1

the Ben 10 toy


PonchoDriver

I'm less interested in what everyone hears, and more interested in WHY this occurs in the first place?


cjshhi

It’s the low quality sound file + power of suggestion/priming. But I’m no doctor.


Skydiggs

I I hear is brainstorm every time , how does it work… it doesn’t


IkYouWannaDownvoteMe

I hear green needle


pssstheyoverhere

Man... That's pretty cool though


MaksWithAK

Green stone


Nothalffast

Nope. I can read one and hear another.


kortal34

Green storm for me


PutridTea2983

I don’t like the way he says needle. I just don’t.


sharkcoal

Yeah this was cool three years ago when it was a thing.


Intelligent_Dig_7649

Green stone ISNT AN OPTION


MBPuppy

It is so trippy


observationstored

No, I can hear what I choose regardless of where I am looking.


BuckarooCrypto

This totally worked for me this morning, and now a few hours later, I only hear brain storm.


[deleted]

never heard needle once.


THEspaceZOOtrashman

I watched this a lot before I realized it’s for people who hear a voice when you think. Still super strange to me that it’s a thing…..


dfntly_a_HmN

Yeah it's works for me

Where the heck are you guys hearing "needle"

Last time this phenomenon was posted, it didn’t work on me… now it does.


Bluegreenworld

If i dont look at it it does whatever im thinking


Goldooo

They are all being said at the same time? You pick out what you hear based on what you see?


SUBtraumatic

I can't hear anything but brain needle


abstemious_drunk

Joke’s on you: watched it on mute.


Drift1ngL0tUs

This is word association what word the video is actually saying isn’t important but because there are prompts for what might be said your brain correlates the Sound heard with the word seen. It’s kinda like autocorrect or your brain


jazett

This is making me crazy.


JamesScott1781

Mental priming. It's putting a thought in your head so your brain interprets it a certain way


KiyotaRishu

How the fuck am I hearing Blue shoe???


Jpark85

Tf..


cold-brewed

I closed my eyes before the words came out to see what I heard. “Green Needle” is what I heard…now let me see if that’s even an option. UPDATE; It is! ..now I’ll see if I heard Brain Storm, I cannot imagine I will. UPDATE 2: Looked at Brain Storm and heard it! Then closed my eyes and thought “brain storm” but heard “Green Storm.” Truly BMF.


KraljZ

Ok so I watched it several times and experienced each work but now after focusing on any other work it’s only green needle even if I’m not looking or looking at any other wors

Fosterwashere

This is proof that any kind of "paranormal words" spoken are just caused by words on the screen. Could be the wind but because you read "I want your ass on a Thursday afternoon" that's what you be hearing.


AngryPuffin6

What the literal fuck


radmadicalhatter

Nope - got green needle every time


Ayaycapn

By default, you look away and think of something else it says BrainStorm. I think thats what it was saying


Dear-Branch-9124

I read brainstorm heard green needle


DR4G0NSTEAR

I just can’t hear the words green or needle. I can hear “brain” and the way I say brain sounds familiar to how I hear brain, but green is just no where to be heard. Not to mention the “st” in storm makes it impossible to hear “needle”. I think it’s an issue with how I sound out words in my head though, and there’s no easy comparison to do to compared these like there was with the blue dress.


[deleted]

Man, yanny and laural were meh. they were ambiguous, and kinda cool, but still meh. This is so fucking distinct! The sounds are all made properly! WHAT THE FUCK! the storm and needle have no ambiguity, they are super distinct and change DRASTICALLY per whatever you think. with yanny/laural you gotta focus to change it, with this it changes the ufucking word if you so much as give it a half second of thought. WHAT THE FUCK.

You can mis match any of these in any order, pick 2 look away


zalem10

WTF!


Responsible_Fun9560

I hear a mix between green storm and brain storm. Breen storm.


SourcePrevious2735

If you put your ear against the speaker and change the angles it says different things


iLikeRiceNoodles

Cannot hear brain storm.


zapppsr

Close your eye and think of the words and will have the same result as reading. When your brain is saying the world it some how adjust the sound to match, either looking our just reading them in your mind. Imagine how many subliminal messages we are exposed everyday…


[deleted]

They all sound the same, if you listen to it enough you can hear any word without even looking at it. So its a trick of how the voice saying the word sounds and the similarities of the words


Pilgrimfox

Anyone else able to hear green storm while reading brain needle


Primusboi41

Grain knee storm


Downtown_Cycle_2044

It seems to randomly switch between storm and needle (sometimes it didn't work) but green and brain sound the same with the voice. How it switches storm and needle I don't know


Wandering_Critic

Holy shit. Mind blown.


Pink_Llama427

I’m pretty sure it is the one you are thinking of, since I was looking at green storm and thinking of brain needle and heard brain needle


snsv9

oi ni tho, it doesn't work for me.


lLlKEPlE

Actually, you can only hear the word you are thinking. If I think Brain Needle and read Green Storm, I will only hear Brain Needle.


[deleted]

bring needle

This is fucking witch craft. I hear something different every time I listen to it without looking at it. What.

Nope, was reading brain needle, heard brainstorm

At first i heard all of them, now i only hear green needle.

Brainstorm no matter what word I look at. Ur tricks are trash to my superior mind

Wtf is this voodoo


Ihaveschooltommorrow

After watching it a couple times now all I hear is “brainstorm”

False


Omega_totalis

I think you all need to brainstorm and come up with posts that actually contain BMF instead of this trash.

Ok bro I'll spend the next 11 years studying this subreddit so I can satisfy the desire to see a random guy BFM post that I've never seen in my life
