I discovered that this swarm of tiny flies jumped when I shut the car door, so I retrieved my camera and tested them with the car horn. Sure enough, they jumped on every toot.

    Wow thus is amazing, scientists have tested if flies can hear for hundreds of years, thrown every sound at them and no response from the flies, so this is remarkable. I found your video on Google, I was looking for some kind of proof flies could hear or respond to sound.... as I screamed earlier and I could tell a fly heard me as it too jumped, bless the poor fly, I screamed as something made me jump too not the fly lol. wow this is an amazing discovery, thx for sharing!!

    they are reacting to the pulse put off by sound waves.
