Air Raid Siren

[Swastika]

When they test ours round here, some old people look terrorfied lmao, then they must realise its a test not real.

So are they still all readily available in the UK to use if need be?

Just reminds me of War films etc rather than scares me. Hearing the all clear sound was a new experience for me though, very impressive

it's like a dementor no wat im sayin

I don't like the sound neither and I'm not usually creeped out by anything, never mind sounds!

I'm not sure weather every single air raid siren in the UK is ready to use incase of a state of war but ours in teesside gets tested quite regularly - at least it did quite recently.

All air raid sirens work in london, episcally by the themes as it used as a flood warning...

Dunno about the UK tho lol

The noise makes my skin crawl, I've seen so many movies during school about WW2 and I've spoken to people who have been in it and the experience must've been terrifying. know In some places they still use the sirens for flood warnings, I am listening to it as I type this and it's already got pictures running through my head. When I was younger I went on a school trip and we had a 'WW2 experience day' and we had to dress like in WW2 and they pretended that where I live was being bombed, I was only young, and this noise still reminds me of it. I was scared so much, even though it was fake, it scared the living day lights out of me... I always remember the yukky cheese and pickle sarni the woman gave me and she told me if i dont eat it she will give it to the pigs!! LOL :|

I'd say the noise they produce is quite eery to say the least. You know that when you hear that siren, you gotta' run and save your balls. Still, it worked.

Edit: Corr blimey, just watched this and I won't lie to you, the build up scared **** out of me!

[Pixet]

They make me want to cry. I'm such a baby...
Whenever I hear them in videos/films even games, I get this feeling that suddenly I'm the only one left in the world and there's something coming to get me. It's SO SCARY

I remember when i went to this farm on a trip with school, and they did that siren and we had to hide in a shelter.

It was a trip about ww2 or something.
