insane_alien Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 because in the past loud noises usually meant something was going down that we should really pay attention to because we might need to run and hide from it. you know like a tree falling, an elephant approacing etc. thus when we hear bangs, our inbuilt defence mechanisms give us a nice jolt of adrenaline to increase our alertness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
