514 Chai Chee Lane 03-16, Singapore 469029 Here's something for you to think about: On Sunday, May 31, 2015, some Singaporeans apparently heard the sound of trumpets coming from an unknown source.
Here is a video recording of it:
A S'porean filmed and recorded this loud sound yesterday evening from his flat.The rambling sound which resembles a loud trumpet has been reported in many parts of the world as reported recently by the Daily Mail.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/travel_news/article-3084260/What-strange-sound-sky-Noise-heard-globe-nearly-DECADE-explanation.htmlIn 2012, this same loud sound was heard over Sarawak by residents of Kota Samarahan:http://www.theborneopost.com/2012/01/15/rumble-in-the-sky-over-samarahan/What do you think it is?Video credit: Udin Sudman

The sound is similar to the blaring of car horns. And SMRT Ltd (Feedback), a Facebook page in Singapore that provides verifiable information online, has noted the phenomenon and explained it as:

Well, seriously though, the sound has been heard as early as 2012 in Sarawak, east Malaysia, and also around the world such as Ukraine, Canada and Germany the last several years due to the proliferation of video recordings that captured the phenomenon.

As usual, some kooky theories have been put forth, sourced from the ever-unreliable Daily Mail:
Tectonic plates grinding - Tectonic plates are pieces of the Earth's crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as the lithosphere. The plates are around 100 km (62 mi) thick and consist of two principal types of material: oceanic crust (also called sima from silicon and magnesium) and continental crust (sial from silicon and aluminium).
Atmospheric pressure - Atmospheric pressure is defined as the force per unit area exerted against a surface by the weight of the air above that surface.
Trains shunting - Self explanatory - noise comes from trains in reaction to the track and overhead wires.
Construction - Building works, especially if going on at the same time across a specific area, can led to similar sounds.
Aliens - Can this be an alien lifeform in the sky, perhaps scouring out Earth?
HAARP weapon - Rumours persist that the U.S. government uses secret weapons in the sky for defence and weather modifying, the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP). This wouldn't explain the sounds in other countries however...
The Apocalypse and the Seven Trumpets of Heaven - Seven trumpets are sounded, one at a time, to cue apocalyptic events that were seen in the vision of the Revelation of Christ Jesus, by John of Patmos. Somewhat more worrying as it would signal the end of the world...
Did you hear it too? Any proof on video or any recording?
This sounds intriguing.
