Well, as Jeremy Spitzer once said, "Music is a force the must not be taunted because it will get back at you and your ears and make you sorry." The waves and vibrations of the music pound into your delicate eardrum, located close behind the hammer and anvil. Sound, which is collected by your outside, visible ear (the pinna) travels through the outer ear canal. Your eardrum then vibrates as well as the 3 mini bones around it.... the anvil, hammer, and stirrup. All named those names because of their shapes. This vibration goes to the cochlea, (a snail like spiral), which has many little hairs that have nerve signals sent to the brain. If you listen to loud music, the hairs fall off. and you go def.

Due to loud sound,

Eardrum (which is a delicate membrane) vibrates more strongly.

Being in loud sound for more than 3-4 hours loosens its toutness and thus it cannot move bone (malleus) attached to it with the strength that it naturally does.

Sometimes, it may break and cause permanent loss of hearing.

(Note: Sound above 60 decibles is considered noise. For example airplane engine produces sound of 105dB)

Repeated sound waves collide with the membrane of the eardrum, and as repeated procedures go on, the membrane loses its layers, thus reducing the effects of the eardrum's potential to pick up sound waves. Examples of eardrums being damaged would be exposures to loud sounds such as ipods, heavy metal, and so on.

your ear drums shake with every sound so the louder the music, the more damage is done to the ear drum and canal. you could go deaf.

Loud noise can affect the ear drum and cause it to rupture. If it's bad enough noise can cause someone to go deaf.

Loud sound causes damage to hearing by damaging the hair the hair cells of the inner hair. Those hair cells help protect the ear from noises that are higher than 85 decibels.

Listening to anything that is too loud. Classical music, rock music, hip hop, chilldren's songs--if it is too loud, it can hurt the ear. As will a lawnmower, a car engine, airplane engine, etc. Other things--if someone hits you with their fists on your ears, that could harm the ear, as would slapping someone on their ears.

Loud sound damages ears because every sound is a sound wave. The louder the sound the heaver the wave. That is also why you can see things vibrate when loud music is playing. This great sound wave can also hit hard against your ear drums. Sometimes to much can lead to hearing loss.
