Best at my age

Oh the freaking "oh".

I have no need to take that test.........because I am deaf since birth.

im deaf from my right ear, probably due an unnoticed/treated infection when i was a child.

But yeah, loud noises damage your hearing sense if exposed prolonged periods of time, specially if you are exposed several times.

Here's mine

But I feel like they have my age recorded wrong...

I don't think so. I've been listening to loud music since I can remember and I have very good hearing.

Same things with "eating junk food will destroy your stomach", "spending a lot of time in front of a PC will cause your eyesight to get worse" and stuff. I don't believe those. And I'm just fine in all those areas.

I have a teacher that used to listen to really loud music when he was younger, now he has hearing aids

My results are pretty bad. You youger guys need to be careful of your hearing.

Yes.

Thought it would be worse; I was that kid in highschool who always walked around with headphones on.

Yes, although ears gets to worse with the age, if you put high air pressure waves (loud sounds) they will get that worse quicker.
I'm musician, i have studied many stuff about sound, i really can tell you.

"Louder doesn't means better" ;)

Have a nice day :)

I'm da BEST!

GIMME PRIZES! :D

And that with having gone to about 2 parties a week in loud discos from like, 20 - 23, and about once / twice a month till 27.. :D

About -20db. Meh.

Ofcourse it does, why do they need to do a survery? Any loud noise over any extended period of time will damage your hearing, hell even one short very loud noise will. Ask anyone who had a bomb go off near them.

Hy hearing has been damaged, over the years, but there were plenty of things besides loud music to do the deed. Jackhammers and explosions (mostly from video games and TV) are two things that come to mind. Back when I did a lot of manual labor, "safety equipment" was a pair of sunglasses and maybe a baseball cap.

Half way between 20 and 25 db, as a 45 year old.... The age is kinda wrong, didn't ask me for anything like that though

Pretty bad on the graph. I obviously have trouble in one ear, where everything is quieter and more dull, which I believe comes from when I was a kid and I ended up killing a bee that flew into my ear and getting the inside stung (or it was a dream, I asked my mother and she doesn't remember).
I also often have to ask people to say things again because I couldn't hear them, if it's because they aren't speaking loud enough for the surrounding noise, I don't know.

Nowhere Else to Roam Tour '93. Got a tinnitus back then (was 15 years old). Had to walk around with a saline solution infusion the whole summer holidays, but it didn't help. Gladly the Tinnitus is not very loud (only hear it when there is no other noise) and I learned to ignore it. Have been using earplugs ever since when I went to a disco or concert. Which was hard sometimes, if you are a teen you think it's embarrassing to put in earplugs when you go to a disco. One of my friends got a Tinnitus as well, that made it easier for me.

Other than that I passed the test very well, though I had problems realizing they meant 'oh' (0) when they asked for the numbers. That was not an acoustic problem though.

That sound quality is awful.

I made a lot of mistakes, because of the number "ö".
Then I realized, they say "o" for the number zero... (=_=;
