Decibels (dB) is the unit for expressing the relative loudness of sounds. Humans can range from 10 dB to over 90 dB depending on the type of speach. Wispers range 10 to 15 dB, average converstation 50 to 60 dB and shouting 85 to 90 dB. Note that this is just an indication as each person speaks at a different loudness.

I believe it depends on the listeners perception, and the effort put in by the speaker. If the speaker is obviously trying to be loud, you can see it in their face. Some people are just louder than others, so one man's shout, might be another man's whisper.

That depends how close you measure to the shouter's mouth. The closer - the louder! The distance is very important if you measure with a sound pressure level meter.

It depends only how close you are to the shouter's mouth. The closer, the more decibels the sound pressure level will show.

How many decibels are there in the average shout?

That depends on two things: On the volume of the shouter. (There is no average shout!) And on the distance where your ears are. The closer, the more decibels are there. I suggest: Go far away from a shouter.
