No George it is Watt, Watt, that level of sound will make your ears bleed.
Working in machine shops early in my life when noise was not thought about as a long term threat, if it was they did not care, has made me quite deaf, but strange as it is a loud noise is more painful now than it ever was. I also find it causes confusion in thinking. It has also given me Tinnitus which is worse than the deafness. With all the loud music these days we will have a generation of deaf people coming, ear protection is a must.
William Shatner, a Canadian, suffers from Tinnitus caused he thinks by the sound affects used on Star Trek, it was so bad he thought of suicide at times. There is no cure, and I understand his suffering as you have to tune it out if you can and ignore it.
