    Explanation: The two words exist simultaneously. Laurel occupies a lower frequency (lower pitch), while Yanny is higher frequency (higher pitch).
    People hear frequencies slightly differently, so some hear the higher or lower (Laurel or Yanny).
    Some people can hear both.
    It's because of frequency, everyone is right. Also, the effect is cool and all, but everyone's making too big of a deal out of it o_O
