    Default The most realistic sound you will ever hear! Check it out!

    Ok go this site and listen to the virtual hair cut. YOU NEED HEADPHONES FOR THIS OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT WORK!
    Also, close your eyes.

    Its called holophony, or a holophonic sound recording.
    Its recorded using a boom mic stand which resembles a persons head, with two microphones in the ears. Thats all that is needed to create this. The rest as 'Luigi' mentioned is done in your head

    That is insane. At the very beginning I could have sworn there was somebody in the room behind me knocking on the wall.

    I wasn't expecting to be impressed, but whoa. It was actually kind of creepy.

    I was afraid it'd be like a blood-curdling scream or something.

    I got goose-bumps when he tried to suffocate me by putting my head in a plastic bag.

    I had my eyes closed when I listened and felt the same thing.

    That was really cool. I jumped when he whispered the name of the algorithm they're using in my ear. xD

    I wasn't impressed at first, but then he used the electric razor and it did.

    You get the best results if you close your eyes and there are no other sounds in the room, I listened to this a couple months ago, it really is amazing.

    Ehmmm, try the womans voice, no idea what shes saying, but she sounds hot!
    And the matchbox one made me think I was tied to a chair and after having petrol poured on me, he was like taunting me by walking around and playing with his matches! O_O

    Sounds like a repeat of "Mary Jane" and then "Say no more" in a whisper.

    Pretty interesting stuff.
