Used again, this time in conjunction with a fade-in of heavy heartbeats to create the auditory sense of having some sort of sudden cardiac episode. This sound is one of the ones that I like to try to find more uses for, and every time I think of one it makes me happy. Thanks yet again for recording it!
Here is how it got used this time:

I used this sound again, for another audio project. It really does work nicely for the after-effects of getting walloped in the head. Thanks again for recording it!

I've just completed another of my audio projects, and your sound recording got used in it. Thank you very much for recording it!

(I am also perpetually affected by tinnitus from too many years spent working in factories. It doesn't sound like your recorded effect, but your recorded effect SOUNDS a lot more like sudden-onset tinnitus as people without it might conceive it. Good work.)

The closest thing I ever heard to my tinnitus; thanks a lot, I can now show it if needed.
