This is like the quietest room on earth. Built to stop sound as much as possible, apparently it's so quiet you can hear your heartbeat. I think I remember the average ppl can stand it is like 12 minutes

Edit: I was wrong about time (30 mins), but the longest is about an hour. See bottom of the article.

That's all urban legend. The real reason no one stays in for more than half an hour is that the lab is busy and they need their anechoic chamber. Not for some rando to just hang out inside of.
