The Yanny v Laurel Debate



I'm 60. I hear yanny with rel at the same point as nny. The yanny is higher pitched with a lower pitched rel audible at the end of yanny. So it's yanny and yaurel.
 
Saw this earlier today, and gave it a try.
At first, I could hear Yanny, in a slightly higher, weird accent (to what came later). I tried to hear Laurel but just couldnt, so I tried using headphones - after about 4 more plays, the Y started to change to an L, and then about 2 plays later it was clearly Laurel.
Now, I can't hear Yanny even if I try.

Its a clever little trick. I wonder what they did to create that sound effect - I suspect it was engineered. The Initial letter sounds a bit off either way if you notice.
Sounds like the effects of the glue kicking in ;)
 
Oh FFS.

I was hearing "Laurel, Laurel, Laurel"

Then I watched this f***ing video clip.. now all I can hear if "Yanny, Yanny, Yanny" WTF
I've tried everything and still only get Yanny. Good quality Shure earphones, phone speaker, PC, cheap headphones.
