How Do Glass Break By Singing?

Glass can break when exposed to certain frequencies, such as those produced by a singer with a very strong and sustained voice. If the pitch of the sound waves matches the natural frequency of the glass, it can cause the glass to vibrate excessively and ultimately shatter due to this resonance phenomenon.


Why does a glass filled with water shatter when you run your finger along the rim of the glass?

A piece of crystal stemware has a natural or resonant frequency that can be excited by rubbing a moistened finger along its rim. Filling the glass with water merely changes the pitch of the tone. The tone you hear is created when the crystal vibrates at frequencies in the audible range for humans. Although it's difficult to see, the glass actually flexes during the vibrations. If the glass deforms sufficiently, it can break, since crystal is brittle and not very elastic. It is not likely that a flawless glass could be made to break merely by rubbing its rim. The MythBusters demonstrated the resonance of a crystal glass and shattered several by exciting the glasses with a human voice. One professional singer broke a glass without the use of amplification. See the video.


Is it possible to have surgery to change your voice?

Can you be personally identified just by your voice?

In some cases, yes. Voice can be a unique identifier for an individual, especially if someone is familiar with your voice or has access to voice biometrics data. Advanced technology can sometimes match a voice to a specific individual.

Could an opera singer ever really break glass by singing?

It is highly unlikely for an opera singer to break glass solely by singing. The frequency at which glass resonates is much higher than what human voices can produce. Mythbusters tested this and concluded that it is not possible for a singer to break glass with their voice.
