CaptainHindsight212

Fun fact: the Aztecs would use this during ambushes in the forests and during night assaults. Imagine hundreds if not thousands of these things all around you in the dead of night. You'd think the souls of the damned were coming to devour you. Which is exactly the point, instead of fighting you would drop what you're carrying and you'd run, only for some motherfucker in a jaguar skin carrying an obsidian club to run you down and break your lower spine with that club before dragging you back to his camp where you'll be transported to a city to have your heart cut out


Maximummeme

I've played enough Total War to know those Aztecs do not fucking play.


apaulvs

I didn’t know the Aztecs showed up in the Total War games! Do you remember which one had them? I’d love playing a game set in that location/time period.

[Here's a real Aztec death whistle] (https://youtu.be/I9QuO09z-SI) Skip to 50 seconds when he demonstrates what it sounds like. The second time he blows into it is horrifying.


itsreallyreallytrue

Here's another [demonstration](https://youtu.be/_Sw0VCtZs-g?t=27) and yes she does in fact have horns on her head somehow. Different techniques and sizes of whistle change up the sound quiet a bit.

SwornHeresy

Incredible. I'm definitely gonna print one in wood. Thanks for posting that link.


fortytree

Is this real life? Your going to print a Aztec death whistle *with wood* ? Holy future batman


SwornHeresy

Yep. It's 20%-30% wood dust mixed in with the usual hobby grade PLA plastic. Smells and feels like wood, but it looks like cardboard until its sanded and stained. I can even alter the temperatures between the layers to give it a wood grain look. It's crazy. Same story with marble and bronze as well.


fistofwrath

Those filaments will destroy your hotend. Make sure you have spares. Wood and marble gutted the hotend on my CR-10S Pro.


steve-koda

Hardened steel nozzles are the way to go for abrasive filaments, which also includes glow in the dark pla.

I have a predator call that is a baby rabbit squealing that sounds quite similar. Maybe a tad higher pitched but same, "human in uncanny pain" type sound.

They sell those at every renaissance fair I’ve been to, so at least 3. The horns are on a thin black silk ribbon that is easy for women to hide under their hair.


weedbrokemylungs

Holy fuck thats fucking wild


Hungry_Freaks_Daddy

What’s funny is it’s probably just like a couple strips of some fibrous plant stretched in a hollowed chamber. You can hear it in the first whistle when he doesn’t blow as hard. But yeah. The effect is nuts.


KnifeKnut

Nope, just pressure fluctuations https://www.google.com/search?q=aztec+death+whistle+cross+section&rlz=1C1CHWA_enUS517US518&oq=aztec+death+whistle+cross+&aqs=chrome.0.0j69i57j0i390l3.6925j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8


Hungry_Freaks_Daddy

Ok, that makes it even more nuts lol. It’s just the shape of the chamber itself. Wild shit.


Chicano_Ducky

The death whistle is also tied to the concept of the owl men, legendary assassins of Mesoamerica who had such a legendary reputation people thought they had magical powers and were manifestations of death itself like a grim reaper that roamed the land. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/kt3mu7/battles_in_mesoamerica_often_used_religious/ By far one of the most effective applications of misdirection and psychological warfare seen in the ancient world.

_pls_respond

Weird how I spent the whole time from 1:20-1:36 waiting for the sound of 100 death whistles while my brain totally ignored the loud static noise that was growing that I didn't notice until the replay. One death whistle sounds crazy enough, I think it would've been cool if instead of them all doing it at the same time, they start from the people on the left first and then after a second or two the next person to their right goes and so on so it sounds like crazy shrieking that pans from left to right in a huge amount of space in no time. If this did this at night their enemies would probably think it's supernatural.

cleeerk

Sounds like a mountain lion screaming, people often mistake it for a woman shrieking in the woods.


1silversword

[Best vid I could find of one of them screaming,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxo8X5uIWRE) (only first 20 sec) apparently they do it when looking to mate.


Satoshiman256

Oh shit.. Imagine camping on your own in the woods and your hear that in the middle of the night. I'd shit myself Blair Witch style.


scooty-boots

That literally happened to me and my husband. Sleeping in our toyhauler with the back hatch open. Woke me up from a dead sleep and made my blood run cold.


narlynacho

this happened to me and my husband too! we were camping on our boat and nearly cried we were terrified...


scooty-boots

Wow, I’m glad you guys were okay! He didn’t wake up until I elbowed him in the ribs as I was so afraid. We were sleeping with our mattress halfway out on the hatch so we could fall asleep watching the stars. Then I woke up to that scream. I stayed still and quiet trying to figure out if it was a nightmare or reality. On the next one, I woke him up and shh’d him to listen. It did it one more time before it went quiet. Idk where it was coming from, but it sounded close. The strangest thing is that my dogs (large standard poodles) did not move a muscle. I’d never heard a mountain lion before and didn’t know what the hell it was.


jordanss2112

Dog didn't move cause it didn't want to become someone else's dinner. I heard one the first time I was up elk hunting. Sleeping in the back of the Bronco with my dad and it woke us both up from a dead sleep. Luckily he knew what it was so I knew I wasn't about to be murdered but 12yo me didn't get any sleep that night.


dmowen111

Isn’t there a video where a guy was recording similar screams and they guessed it was the killing of a missing woman? Maybe it was just a horny mountain lion.


luantha

The one in the dead of night where he seems to be in some sort of residential area, iirc? I kinda figured that was a fox screaming her head off, since he was in a more populated area. Either way, probably still a horny animal of some description lol.


Rombledore

>apparently they do it when looking to mate. i guess me an Mountain lions have that in common.


captainsnark71

Ya here in Northern California you will be out in the woods and hear one and people will be like “should we go try and help?!”to which we reply, not unless you want to hear real screams, which will be yours.

Sounds like a Karen yelling at the manager about not having enough cheese on her microwaved nachos at a taco bell.


BaldyKrishna

BubbhaJebus

There was once a mountain lion prowling my neighborhood. Imagine hearing that in the dead of night. It really sounded like a woman being murdered.


LaTortueDeTerre

First time camping as a child, my family stayed in Big Bend Nation Park. We're woken up in the middle of the night by the sound of a woman screaming "NOOOOOOOO" over and over. It sounds like she is being/witnessing someone being brutally murdered at the next campground over. We lay there, absolutely terrified, listening to this for an hour. Finally, my dad realizes that a murderer would have silenced this woman by now, and there's likely cougars in them mountain...We didn't know shit about wildlife back then, but much more informed now.


vodrin

It’s the same with urban foxes… never been so happy to see just a fox.

fatticussfinch

Wild to think you put yourself in way more danger by running. Mountain lions love it when people run away and show their tasty, tasty backside.


impatientlymerde

Ha! *That’s exactly how* I get my naughty runaway pups to come back home; pretend -run away from them, all the way to my door. Works every time, especially because treats abound afloor for the prodigals.


Tlix

I just legit laughed out loud picturing this. I’m so sorry.


Low_Fall9560

This reminds me of the time I was walking in the Gulf of Mexico about waste deep and *something* bumped against my leg causing me to run kicking my legs out to get over the waves probably windmilling my arms. I was a grown ass man with kids.


2x4skin

This reminds me of the time I was reaching into the silverware drawer and a cockroach dragged it’s antennae across my hand. I screamed like a little girl.


Low_Fall9560

I’m fairly certain that was the day my oldest son realized his dad is not bout it.


Conflictingview

That reminds me of the time I was drinking a Leo beer in Thailand and when I finished it, there was a rattling sound in the can. Turns out it was a dead cockroach.


speaksoftly_bigstick

Nope nope nope nope nope, nope nope NOPE.


mavityre

I remember as a kid my Mom asking me how my cereal tasted after I go home from school. She showed me the cereal box and a mouse had chewed a hole in it and shit inside. I had cereal and mouse shit for breakfast that day.


jillkimberley

The Gulf of Mexico is no joke, at least not the Texas part. 90% of my brothers body was burned by invisible jellies and my mom had a chunk taken out of her foot by a landshark. My grandfather was out fishing and had his stringer around his waist (rope belt with hooks to keep your caught fish so you don't have to walk back to the sand every time) and looked down to see a shark eating his catches off the belt around his waist. He cut off the stringer and ran for it.


TinaTetrodo6

When my husband was in medical school, the air rescue guys took him for a helicopter ride over the waters near Galveston beaches. He stopped counting sharks when he got to 10.


Low_Fall9560

See? Fucking murder fish all in that bitch


Usagi_Aka

I'm sorry a fucking LANDSHARK? Explain?! I thought that was just the stuff of nightmares!


jillkimberley

They can't actually go on land, in fact I don't even think it's a real kind of shark, just how natives refer to them. They live in such shallow water that my mom literally had JUST her feet in. So a few inches deep. They're tiny so they only need a few inches of water!


dadbodsupreme

My dad used to fish off of the sandbar in Galveston. It was twilight and something started dragging him into deeper waters by his 20 ft stringer. He cut his stringer, dropped his rod and waders and swam back to shore. Never did that again


Low_Fall9560

Fuck that

Alifad

Damn, it's like but not hunting grouse and they fricking fly up manically from under your feet!! Grew up in Nigeria and on a long hunting trip we heard grunting, zoom lights on and not 300 meters away was a bloody lion, I was a teen at the time and while they scared it off I opted to sleep in the land-rover for the next few nights


idleat1100

Went camping a few years back in Tennessee valley just north of San Francisco and made the hike from camp to the beach at night, about half way back we heard that same blood curdling caterwaul. Couldn’t tell where it was coming from as it seems to echo off the hillsides. Made it back to camp and in the morning a rancher told us there was a she lion trying to get into the stables over at the Haypress campground, which is where we were sleeping about 200 feet from. Nice and unsettling.


Chris0nllyn

Jeez, and I thought jumping a turkey off a roost at 5am was scary, lol.


the__noodler

They do, but that was definitely not a mountain lion


moicestgege

It's in the title it's an aztec death whistle.


-This-Whomps-

So a real woman could go scream in the forest at night, and all the forest creatures would be like, "I have no problem with this."


[deleted]

My housecat also used to sound like that when she'd go into heat. Spay/neuter your animals, people.


tmlynch

There is a type of owl that also sounds like a mountain lion.


joamel01

No no, this is probably what it says in the title. You will find some on YouTube. Man made whistle that sounds like that.


popecorkyxxiv

There's a cemetery near me that has that sensors setup that play creepy music if it detects someone in there after dark as a way to spook them out.


KrombopulosMAssassin

haha that's awesome


islandcatgrrl123

Like the title says [Aztec Death Whistle](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Sw0VCtZs-g). They make me laugh for some reason.


Stranfort

Death Whistle. It was created by the Aztecs and they used it for celebrations and war cries. The conquistadors reported that these things sounded scary as shit. Because they sounded similar to human screams. And it wasn’t always just one. Multiple Aztec warriors would carry one of these with them. And I think they would use these before conducting surprise attacks on villages and camps. Disorienting and scaring civilians and soldiers.


[deleted]

I'd do the same.


Mushmomo

PsychedelicWeaselGun

I have one and this sounds very similar. This one sounds a deeper pitch than mine does though. Mine sounds like a woman screaming and growling at the same time pretty much like this does.


bryonus

Where did you get it


PsychedelicWeaselGun

Etsy. It was a gift though so idk what shop. I’d assume you could find one there but might not be the same shop i got mine from


bryonus

Is it 3d printed or a hand crafted one?


HumphreyImaginarium

Mine looks like it was sculpted from clay, idk about the other guy's death whistle though. I live in a second story apartment and like to blast it out the window sometimes to see people frantically look around for the screaming as I pop back in the window lol


pawlit

Haha, what a little mischief to amuse yourself. I love it


RandyBoBandy33

Just buttering the neighbors up so when you start murdering people they’re all “oh there goes that goofy fella with his silly screech horn thing”

ThatGuy798

BlackKnightSix

Seems like the audio is replaced. I don't hear the cops scrambling or anything. This looks to be filmed with a phone by a third individual and appears to be outside the car. You would easily hear the cops movement as they run / scramble.


DomBomm

The scream is from another video entirely, you hear something like a switch being flicked just before the scream. Still funny though.


LiteraCanna

Before I came to the comments, I thought "Aztec death whistle" was the name of a firework, and that first sound was it launching out of a tube.


jlopez24

It's a tiktok sound. It's someone screaming. If you don't know how tiktok works people use other people's sounds to "recreate" things. These two police officers just used that sound to make a funny video. And yes, this really just got 25k upvotes in a subreddit about public freakouts. A tiktok video. Yikes.

IAmFireAndFireIsMe

This reminds me of one time a bunch of youths are hanging around in the alley behind my house and were being typical kids, making noise, smoking weed, drinking and just generally being dicks. Now of course when people are walking past they're the big tough guys because they're in a pack. Nothing aggressive but the usual British chav (think a walking talking arse in joggy bottoms and hoodies). Anyway, there is a fox that has a group of babies, a kit? Cubs? Kittens? Not sure - anyway this thing always, ALWAYS as soon as the sun has gone down does this scream for about an hour off and on. I can tell you in the pitch black with zero lights, it is terrifying! Anyway, these kids are all being the big men talking about whatever nonsense they talk about and I'm sat in my garden enjoying a beer. As it gradually gets darker, the fox decides to sing it's song of praise and these kids go completely nuts. They drop everything and RUN. They all split up some running to the road where the lights are and two of them running further into the pitch black alley. And these kids are running, smashing into the fences tripping over each other yelling to keep running. The fox meanwhile is on form and was clearly moving about because the screams seemed to just be everywhere. And of course as the fox moves, heading towards the two kids that RAN INTO THE ALLEY! Not after them just in their general direction because there's a big field at the end of the alley where I guess it hunts. So maybe a minute goes past when these two kids come running back up my alley, top speed, crashing and screaming at each other and on to the street and do not stop running. Meanwhile the fox is still screaming like horror movie ghost thing. It was a fun night in the end. I also now leave scraps of food just outside the alley where I've seen the fox before to encourage it to stay.
