Loud!

At last week's Flame service, Ben Larrit won our somewhat impromptu shouting contest with is whopping 116 dB! The current Guinness World record is 121.7 dB. Ben wasn't that far off (although, we don't know how far from the shout our dB meter should be). Ben's shout was equivalent to a sandblaster. Heh.

There has always been debate about how loud is too loud when it comes to worship band volumes.

Maxed-out worship at Flame Youthchurch is around 100 dB (for anyone who is wondering). At that volume, we could have a two-hour non-stop-maxed-out worship time before there would be danger of permanent hearing loss (for anyone who is wondering).
