There's an emergency at the Facility down the road, and everyone in a six-mile radius is very likely fucked.

What is the sound that announces your fate?

oooooOOOOOOOIPP, oooooOOOOOOOOIPP
WAAAARK ..... WAAAARK ..... WAAAARK
dyOOT! ... dyOOT! ... dyOOT!
Something else? (please spell)

The Danish Air raid sirenes allways gives me the creeps, I think it's the clear sound that gets me. Unlike other sirenes that has a harsha tone, the Danish ones have a almost sterile tone, convaying the feeling of "this sound is vary important, stop now and go Inside. Like a scary Teacher"

Starts at 0:15 and later has a "all clear" tone later on on youtubes

Then again it might just be because I had to listen to it as a kid, and I was a weird ass kid
