This is the astonishing moment a girl's hair stood on end from the powerful vibrations of super-strength car speakers.

Footage captured by Mr Zhang shows the passenger in the front seat while the massive sound system blared beside her during a car show in Italy.

The blast caused strands of her hair to rise in the air as she closed her eyes, with a Metallica song playing in the background on May 18.

She then covered her ears as the music continued, while the driver seated next to her watched her locks shake violently.

Exposure to loud sounds can cause the eardrums to vibrate excessively, leading to discomfort, temporary reduced hearing sensitivity, ear pain, and pressure.

Prolonged or intense noise may damage inner ear hair cells, potentially resulting in temporary or permanent hearing loss. It can also cause ringing or buzzing sounds known as tinnitus.
