Yanny vs Laurel

I distinctly heard L aurel each time......yet so many heard Yanny, does anyone know how/why this works?  The ABC  said they would explain later but i had to turn the  radio off. 

 

Same thing as the blue vs the gold dress.  Some time ago.  

 

 

Sorry no time to find a link but google will do so.

It's a psychological mind game .. "we'll tell you what you 'might' hear, and you might convince yourself that you did because we suggested it"  ....  Woman LOL

But but but aren't they saying that Yanny is at a higher itch and older people can't hear the higher pitch?

I still think it is "suggestive", a little like hypnosis ...  Smiley Tongue

 

I'm probably wrong, but perhaps I'm looking at it as an observer rather than a participant!

I hear Laurel.

 

I am waiting for my OH to get home to see what he hears.....He has been diagnosed with significant hearing loss whereas I have been told my hearing is as good now as it was 45 years ago.

My miscreant grandchildren swear that I have supersonic hearing just as my children did all those years ago.
