It's almost a reflex action that I notice 'silence', even underwater.

Like a brain thing?

No. Doing some apnea dives off a point in Jervis Bay and I suddenly notice the 'silence' underwater and decided to swim to the rocks before rising the 15m up to the surface to get out. Told me mate and he was like 'yeah right Roll Eyes

' and the following weekend at the same point he was dragged 20m underwater when the big female Whitey took his catch line. "You were right Xav!" Shocked

he admitted.

Walk in on people in a room and if goes quiet, you know they were talking about something or someone that shouldn't be talked about.

Etc, etc.

Edit: In a political or even Media culture - silence is easy to notice. Wink

I have heard noises underwater.
try banging 2 rocks together underwater

To me silence underwater is real but you notice it visually. It seems very quiet when all the life around you disappears. It is also a good sign that there is a predator around. It can be you. You do hear sound underwater if there is a swell crashing on rocks some fish make sound but it is often very quiet too. I don't think you notice the quiet when there are fish swimming around all over the place but when they all disappear the quiet is deafening.

The silence in a room with a handful of people is a sign someone has let rip a quiet assassin. Tongue
