Ever notice that when you go to a higher end movie theater to see a movie that got lots of explosions and bangs and thumps, when the explosion happens, the whole room just shakes like crazy. Notice that even with a good home theater system you have at home, you can't quite seem to recreate that gut rumbling room moving shaking that you get in a movie theater.
The reason is that in a good movie theater, they have massive sub sonic sub woofers hidden away that put out frequencies below the threshold of human hearing (around 20 hertz). Even at 20 hz, you can definitely feel it in your body but its when you go below 20 hz is when you really get the room shaking. Those frequencies are added in the movie solely for the purpose of shaking the room when the explosion happens on screen to give you a more complete experience. The average home theater system bottoms our typically between 40 - 60 hz. A high end theater system may go down to 30 hz or so but if you want to have those sub sonic room shaking frequencies, you have to get a specialized sub sonic sub woofer to do it and they require huge specialized power amps to properly drive them at the required level to match your audio system, particularly if it is high output.
Sub sonic frequencies are why a earthquake shakes the ground so much and why a explosion shakes everything around it.
Having a convo with my friend talking about the temp we like our bedrooms to be when going to bed and it always reminds me of when I was a teenager. My uncle owned the local hangout next community over where we all went to on the weekend to party and at the end of the night, instead of hitching a ride home in -20 temps during the winter, I would just walk up the hill and stay with my grandmother.
Her house was a old uninsulated house and she had a old style wood fired oven that was the main heat source for the house so the bedrooms at the back of the house were always icy cold. Nan would put a big smooth round beach rock in the oven for a couple of hours, then put a thick wool sock over it and I would take it to bed with me and put it down by my feet under blankets that must have weighed 100 kilos.
That combination gave me the most sound, restful, uninterrupted sleep I ever had in my life. I felt 100% safe, comfortable, and completely at ease. I always woke up very well rested and feeling like a million dollars.
I could never recreate that feeling since, not even with a weighted blanket. That combo of that old house, company of my grandmother, the hot rock, that bed, those blankets, it was the most peaceful content safest unguarded time I ever felt in my life. I would give anything to go back for just one day and night to relive it again.
I wish fast food places would use lard and peanut oil again. People are dying just as fast as before but now fast food don't taste so good. Put the lard back in the lardass
