What is highest frequency you hear in the following link?

http://www.freemosquitoringtones.org/

And what's your age?

The sharpest I can hear 19KHz and I am 24.. I hear upto 22 but the sound is faint

Does anybody else hear 22 louder than 21?

IF YOU ARE UNDER 18 DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK! THE SOUND COULD HURT YOUR EARS!!

I can hear all the way to 22khz. It says 18 and younger but I'm older than that and you.

I can hear 14khz and I am over 50. But the ranges from 8 to 12 are downright painful!

I can hear all the way to 22kHz, but at 19kHz and onward, I can feel it more than hear it. I'm 21.

I can barely hear at 17 khz, over headphones and I am nearly 42.

I used to have really sharp hearing (not sure how sharp) but I listened to a lot of loud music and lost some range.

Well... There was this one time when Alice in Chains was playing a fairly local venue and I sat next to the speakers - not a brilliant move on my part, but my hearing is still more acute than expected for my age, so eh.

The lowest frequency where I can actually hear a continuous buzzing tone is 17 kHz, and I'm almost 24, so I guess that's right. But for the frequencies between 17.4 kHz and 20 kHz, I do hear a little click when I press "play." I don't hear an actual tone, but does hearing a faint click at the start count for anything? I can't even hear a click for the last two.

My tolerance for loud music far exceeded my tolerance for loud noises of other varieties. It was actually really soothing and stimmy.

I've actually come across a couple other autistic people who said similar.

Anyway, I was sitting on the stage next to the speakers. The guitarist tried to get me off the stage but security was cool because I was just sitting and not causing trouble.

Woah! I've been to band concerts too and used to play in my school band and I think I lost some of my hearing after an ear infection...
