I am going to bang my hand on the table....boom. I heard the sound but did you? Of course not, but i can verify that the sound was made. This proves that when you cannot hear a sound, does not mean a sound happen. Stated by google definiions: a sound is a vibration that travels through the air. And that this vibration CAN be heard by humans. This means that these vibrations CAN or CANNOT be heard. Therefore, if the vibrations weren't heard by people does not mean that the vibrations occured. Therefore, i ask you....did the vibrations occur? This is the true question because if no vibrations occured, then there is no sound. If vibrations did occur, then there is sound. Ultimately, we cannot answer this question because no one can verify if the vibrations occured or not. This is my final answer. Side: yes

No. It is involved with the transfer of energy between mediums but to say it makes sound, isn't entirely truthful. Regardless of whether anyone is there or not. Now upvote this argument if you've never heard it in response to the tree falling in the forest brain teaser! Side: No
