The person this is vaguely based on is a pretty cool subject to make into a stop motion samurai flick.
"Other sculptors were reportedly jealous of how skilled a carpenter Hidari was, to the point of chopping off his right arm."

"His famous nemuri-neko ("sleeping cat") carving is located above the Kuguri-mon Gate amidst the sacred mountain shrines and temples of Nikkō, Japan."

Sperm whales' clicks are so loud they can cook us to death if we're too close. Also, they're probably smarter than us.

The decibel scale works differently underwater (it's relative to ambient pressure, so in normal air pressure the loudest 'sound' possible is about 196dB, but it's higher underwater), but that's still plenty loving loud. I have no idea how those divers could physically bear to be that close to the whales. Not sure of the veracity of these stories, but I've heard that active SONAR arrays in submarines can absolutely kill you if you're too close when they ping, and apparently this was used as a defensive tactic for submarines in port to ward off potential underwater saboteurs.

but what does it mean that the scale works differently

the loudest noises i know (machines and concerts) are like 100 ish dB

but dB is logarithmic so 200 is like a mbillion times louder than 100 right

The scale works differently in that the reference level is different,. In acoustics you're talking about sound pressure level, SPL = 20log10(ptotal/pstatic), with pstatic being a standard reference pressure which is 20uP in air but only 1uP in water. So your SPL for a given actual sound power is going to be higher in water. In our atmosphere the limiting point is when the negative side of the pressure wave goes down to 0, you can't get lower pressure than that, so that works out to the 196dB mentioned; you can get stronger pressures on the high side then that but at that point you're talking about a shock-wave, you're dealing with moving the medium itself around and not just a vibration that's moving through the medium. Underwater, you're starting off at a higher pressure, and your limiting point is when the negative side of the pressure wave goes down low enough for the water to start vaporizing. So the deeper you are and the higher the ambient pressure is, the louder a sound you can generate.

Human senses are also logarithmic, so "sound energy" and "loudness" are not the same thing: a 3 dB increase is double the energy, but only about a 25% increase in the loudness you'd perceive. Each increase of 10 dB is 10 times the power, so 200 dB is 10^10, 10 billion times more power than 100 dB.

Growing up our family was looking after a cockatoo for a few years and it learnt to sit on a branch outside the kitchen window and imitate the kettle going off so it could laugh at who ever went to the kitchen to check the if a kettle was on the boil.

In short cockatoos are awesome buggers.

When I was a kid, my dad's boss worked out of a workshop right next to his house. When you heard a shout of "Want a cup of tea, Ken ?" coming from the house, the only way to tell whether it was his wife or their parrot was to wait 10 minutes and see if any tea arrived.
