How come on tv when they use a difibulator they always yell "clear!" even if there is no one else around?

It's a warning to the people around them not to touch the body because if they do when they are shocking the pt then they will get the shock too and it could very possibly stop their heart. It's crazy in real life when you are using a defibrillator. People are running around trying to get stuff for the pt and someone is always at the head providing o2 so if you don't say it some one will touch him and then you have 2 patients in cardiac arrest. Does that help?

Because they use inappropriate words and will often have screaming matches with adults. This is usually a result of being around adults who have "potty mouths" or being subjected to too much "adult" television.

For the same reason people talk louder on a cell phone when the other person says "You're breaking up, I can't hear you".\n\nNO COMMON SENSE!

Have you asked them if they would please be quiet? If you do not want to do this--due to fear for your own safety then maybe you should alert the authorities as this could possibly be a physical abuse/domestic violence situation--are there children in the household? Think of the safety of the children if this is the case!

It sounds like a false alarm to me.......oops! I'm sorry, couldn't resist the pun.lol\n\nI would get rid of it and then add it again. \n\nDid it just start doing this or has it been doing it all along?

Hey there is no easy listening when one is sitting in the dentist chair!\n\nI'd rather do easy listening than Must See TV!

As I understand it, it is sound that is broadcast over a PA system (Like in an office setting), that actually neutralizes the noise that is ocurring in said office environment. It doesn't drown it out, in fact one doesn't even notice it. It is projected at a frequency that obliterates the frequency of the noise already ocurring in the room. Its supposed to help in the work environment.

There is an echo, it's just that the echo sounds almost exactly like their quack that it fools people.\n\nI'll put up a link to Mythbusters ... Meh, aren't any decent ones.  Look at Snopes instead.

You are hearing them most probably enquiring "How is that?" of the umpire ( that is " Is he out?" ).  It can become "Zat?" or "Ows zat?". In cricket the umpire will not make a decision if not asked to.

I can't stand people with this type of voice.  What's worse is that many stations seem to hiring them for the news & weather!  This is why I have cut down on television watching.  I can't tolerate the sound of these women (a few men too).  I consider it UNPROFESSIONAL.  I LOATHE THEM!

You are so not the only one.  I mean what the hell is that light supposed to be when the magnet gets strong?  The others have whispering powers?  And are masters with the blow gun?  Now was that Desmonds ex playin the lady connected to the ominous yellow phone?  Is this show really about her snow globe controlled universe?  I could continue asking ?'s because that's all this show gives you.

I deal with in two ways the first is I bought an illegal, (please don't call the police on me), cell phone jammer off of ebay, I bring to the movies and restraunts...usually wait til they get obnoxious and then turn it on.  Second I start using the same names and pharse they are using for example: I hear them say Susie was so drunk, I turn to my dinner partner and loudly proclaim about how  Susie was naked and dancing on the table last night.  Seems to get even the most obnoxious ones to tone it down.

I work for a TV station, and I get this question a lot. It isn't anything that we are trying to do to get anyone's attention. Part of it is that the programs and commercials are produced by different production companies, so there are bound to be some differences. Another part of it is that programs often do not need to crank up the volume throughout the whole show. Like the person before me said, dialogue is often quite a bit softer than the music/announcer that you hear on a commercial.

I would guess you are a lawn mower.  They usually run very well, and always have to yell over them.

If I recall, the explanation for it is that ghosts voices are at such a low frequency that human ears can't hear it, but it can be picked up on audio tape.

Yea, the local Sound Ordinance should cover vehicles as well as houses. If you consistently see the same person with it too loud, you can call the cops on them. If it's bothering you that much, it's probably bothering lots of other people too.

I do, but I can only watch it when someone else is at home LOL! It gets really scary when one of the guys actually gets pushed or hit and can't explain it. One time Jason had a big bruise or red mark on his back--and he's usually the one who debunks everything that happens!
