Testing out ringtones that calm crying babies

The Japan Acoustic Laboratory is famous for their soft science research, those guys have recently started selling ringtones online that they claimed can calm crying babies. Nikkei has decided to spend a few bucks and try that out on 2 babies. First they downloaded the tone on to their mobile, then they sent it to the alarm clock by muPass. You can have an idea of how the tone actually sounds like here (.avi). No matter how stupid it sounds, Nikkei still reported that it actually worked on two difficult babies, and they both stopped crying within seconds; but over here, we might want to try this on non-Japanese babies first. —Sam Chan
