Sounding the Sumburgh Foghorn

Nice machinery shots, but not much explanation.

It can be heard 20 miles away.
It must be 'kinda' loud up close.
: - )

Wonderfully made video.

location, Scotland?

Now, I’ll be thinking about that stupid cough drop commercial all day.

We once attended a "concert" of the Fog Horn Quartet in San Francisco. 4 guys with fog horns, dressed in thick padding to avoid gelling their insides, played tunes on fog horns.

Best enjoyed at a distance with ear plugs.
