Sights & sounds that give you goosebumps.

Sometimes it was simply the clack of the turnstiles at Burnden,or the sight and smell of a steam train as we left for a family holiday,but there are certain sights and sounds that literally make my hair stand on end.I could go on and on,but I'm sure you all have your own. I certainly can't watch or hear these beauties without fillin' up.

Air raid sirens...

And this   ...

  

It still makes me come over all goosepimply when the announcer pipes up with "Welcome to the Reebok Macron Stadium, the home, of course, of Bolton Wanderers."

Did the touristy helicopter flight into the Grand Canyon a few years ago and it was incredible.

First time in a chopper, the awe-inspiring scale of the canyon and the pilot was piping the theme from Superman through the headphones as we swooped down.

I was like a kid again and couldn't stop grinning throughout the entire flight.

Brilliant!

WOW! Envy you that flight Bread.

That's fucking incredible!

That film was shot 5 days before we did our flight and its the same company we flew with!

Unbelievable!

Cheers for posting that, Boncey.

Another one is when the Welsh crowd start singing their anthem before an international match in their home stadium. None of the other countries has the same effect.

Being in the National Stadium when the Anthem is sung here in Jamaica does it for me.

When Mrs Passi says "come to bed early Mr Passi".

Sadly now only a yearly event.

Not heard one being tested for decades, here in UK.  But in The Netherlands they always test their air-raid system on a monthly basis.  All of them are tested on first Monday of the month at midday!    That was weird to hear at first but soon got used to it, with it happening each month.

I'm not a huge fan of classical music but hearing Nessa Dorma (sic?) being sung well at top note makes the hairs on my neck stand up.

The finish line after one of my gruelling runs.
