My cousin has been a carpenter for 40 years, the skil-saws past 35 years is hard on his hearing.Me also, operating engineer for almost 30 years now, screaming Diesel engines for 25+ years is damaging.
Even with earplugs, the 130DB DETROIT DIESEL, 3 feet from me for years, has taken its toll.
I wear plugs at concerts,p for which I’m ridiculed, for, I don’t cares, trying to save what I have left.
my Father, local 150, as well, hearing loss young, high freq were gone. Cancer, and dead by age 74 (WAY TO DAMN YOUNG!!!!)
im in the same ship, chemicals, dust, haz-mat jobs, loud machines, etc etc.
I can hear a difference , certain speakers, recordings, etc.
take care of your hearing brothers/sisters., you only have a short time to protect your hearing.
I still hit as many metal shows as I can, and OF COURSE EARPLUGS!!
THEY ACTUALLY MAKE THE MUSIC SOUND BETTER TO ME.
