I had read an article a while ago that detailed the way this theory was stumbled upon. It had something to do with someone's fencing foil, if I remember correctly. Someone had experienced these feelings and noticed a foil that was somehow mounted on a wall was vibrating. I'll see if I can dig it up.

So... infra-sound produces ghost-like sensation in humans...
but what if the ghosts themselves produce infra-sounds? ![]() Never underestimate the power of reasonings of a believer... |

You are so very correct. At least it is one less 'unexplainable' phenomena that could only be caused by an invisible dead person!
