The word you want is decibel, which is a hundreth of a bel. And how many you can stand before you go deaf is not easy to say because it depends on how long you are being submitted to this noise and how far away. A jumbo jet taking off would probably deafen you permanently if you stood right near a flat-out engine for more than a few seconds, but you can be OK if you hear one taking of (all 4 engines) on the other side of the airfield.

Was Helen Keller the only blind and deaf girl?

No, in fact Helen Keller's teacher (Annie Sullivan) also successfully taught a girl who had the same problems that Helen did around that time. I don't know if it was before or after Annie taught Helen. I'm sure there have also been other girls that have been the same; we just don't hear about them because their stories aren't as popular.
