Hi:

The following website discusses the effects of sound waves on the human
body. Is the info true? I ask because it really looks weird?

Thanks,

Radium

I didn't find a reference to dB. Relative to pascals or bars? micro milli
.... Often, air and water use different references so "dB" means something
different.
