Is it Loud Inside Our Bodies?

748 views

Weird question but the body does a lot of cool things, while eating for example, but just in general keeping us alive, pumping blood and oxygen around it.
It just kinda made me think, if we were inside our bodies, would it be loud or just kinda quiet, I don’t know if there is a scientific explanation.

It varies, but it’s not quiet and also not as loud as a rock concert. Consider that your perception of loudness varies by how close your ear is to the source, and that human skin/tissue is highly reflective over audible frequency range.

I’m struggling for a good analogy, but imagine putting your ear right next to a running stream in a small underground cave / echo chamber.
