NOT SO MUCH FROM WEARING THE HEADSET AS FROM WRONG SIGNALS AND SOUNDS THAT COME INTO YOUR SET ACCIDENTALLY………YOU CAN BE FINE WEARING YOUR HEAD SET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THESE SUPER LOUD TONES COME THROUGH YOUR HEADSET FROM A CROSSED FREQUENCY OR WRONG CHANNEL…YOU JUMP AND ARE ALMOST DEAF FOR AWHILE…OVER TIME IT DOES CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE….
