just think, if sound travelled at the speed of light then you'd be able to hear things that had already happened in the future, really makes you think doesn't it

Wait, no you wouldn't.

The speed of light doesn't go faster than time. You wouldn't hear the noise until the thing caused it. You'd just hear it instantly.

So like if a turned on a flashlight and hit a drum at the same time a football field away, you'd see the light before you heard the drum.

You wouldn't see the light before he hit the flashlight button

wow, you could hear light years into the future

Ever get deja vu? I get deja vu for real things and dreams. I notice while it happens or a little after. I think our brains do more than we know. Or maybe it is a concerted effort of the entire human body.

Neil deygrass Tyson here, I can't answer your question, but if you kiss yourself in the mirror it's always on the lips.

since sound is just matter vibrating, and vibrating matter is just moving matter, this would also imply everything can time travel, including you. Hearing the future would be one of the more boring side effects.

wait, fucking correct that:
the matter in motion in a soundwave doesn't need to travel at lightspeed, it just needs to affect at lightspeed (which it already does. The quasiparticle which is embodied sound probably doesn't move at lightspeed though, but there's few reasons why it shouldn't, one being information transfer can't travel at lightspeed, making you totally right OP).
tl;dr: I'm a faggot who likes long dick in the ass.
