Oooooh i relate so bad. Im not neurodivergent in any way but i am really sensory. It is a strange thing. My hearing and vision are extreme and my taste and touch are pretty good. My nose on the other hand is horrible, im always the last to notice smells. Its kinda sad that nobody talks about these seperate from autism. When my mom(a doctor) started researching about why i seemed to be scared of loud noises and why i always cried in the car when someone played loud music she only found german literature which was a big limitation because she only spoke fluent english and hungarian but youd guess the english would be usefull here but turns out most countries discouraged research into it(btw i still dont know the english name of it, in hungarian its túlhallás literally meaning over-hearing). In the end she found an expert in the capital who did research and helped other people with this condition in his FREETIME because everybody ignores it. Turns out my hearing is on par with a dogs in some frequencies and in every frequency he measured it was in like top 1% at least. On some frequencies my hearing capped out the specialised machine 💀. I dont know the measurments but my hearing is someting like 50x better than what most hearing testers measure and more than 100x better than whats still considered healthy. He said i was the most extreme case he ever saw but its still sad that 20-30x hearing is still kinda common especially among kids and people just say man-up to them when they experience extreme pain. In reality my hearing is worse than most people because ususally you dont have conversations in noise sealed rooms but in busy placed where the sounds of cars, other people, etc literally blow out anything that i actually want to hear. Noise-cancelling headphones are a blessing, i use mine on the lowest volume and even set the volume to low on spotify and thats comfortable. Most people cant even make out that im listening to music when they try my headphones.
TLDR: i have a hearing condition that makes me hear extremely well and almost all medical literature ignores the existence of it and loud noises cause me physical pain thats worse than getting kicked in the balls
Daym. With there must be a career somewhere in out there that you'd be godlike at using such superhuman hearing. Something like detecting minute faults in (otherwise silent) devices or smt.
That person might be able to hear termites through walls unironically. There's devises we use but they're not 100 percent cause they're so sensitive they pick up planes far away that most people can't hear. This person could probably differentiate between a far plane and termites scuttling around. They're very quiet, AFAIK no normal human can hear them.
Safe cracking
Hah that's a good one
