Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

All of that noise can kill you!

Researchers in Germany and Denmark reviewed years of data and looked at former studies to determine if a link exists between noise and heart disease. People and animals who were exposed to frequent, loud noise had higher rates of heart failure, irregular heart rhythms, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and high blood sugar. 

ABC has the story HERE.

And speaking of sound, I came across a map developed by the National Park Service showing the noisiest parts of America when only natural sound is considered. Note that sound above 60db is dangerous...so you are safe in all of nature, even next to a massive waterfall or on the windiest mountain top.
