Fortnite Streamers react

Dr Disrespect (Laurel)

Dr Disrespect, on hearing the clip a couple of times, commented in his trademark style:

What are we trying to debate here....that says LAUREL, not YANNY...If you're hearing Yanny, I don't know what you're on

Dissing all those who hear Yanny, he said that such people are simply trying to be unique, creative and a recluse when the only word that exists in the clip is Laurel. He then goes on to repeat the word in hilarious fashion.

Myth (Yanny)

TSM Myth, one of the OG Fortnite players, discussed the test during a stream with fans. He spent a good amount of time in the video, deliberating the scientific accuracy behind the auditory phenomenon:

If you can hear Laurel or if you can hear Yanni, does that mean you don't have dumbass ears? If you hear Laurel, means you can hear lower frequencies right? So everybody who could hear Laurel have scuffed ass ears bro?

Ninja- Why such hype?

Popular Fortnite Pro Ninja expressed a dislike for the entire furore created by the Yanny Laurel phenomenon and said:

See that sound thing is just so dumb and irrelevant..like it's clear that people hear different things based on the pitches they're more used to...people are acting like this whole hearing thing is like we need to know which one is the right one or the world explodes !
