Popcorn is soundproof Real or fake? Did you know that popcorn is sound proof? People use popcorn to block sound if their house is connected or parted. This was first invented in 1998 by a scientist with a noisy neighbour who was on the other side of his house. The colour yellow is on buttered popcorn, but if you leave the popcorn plain it is better for sound. This is because if you stick buttery popcorn on the walls, it is most likely that it will drip and slide on the wall. This will stop it from retaining sound. People pop 2 bags of popcorn per square foot. To stick the popcorn on the wall you have to hot glue each and every piece and stick it to the wall. Make sure you leave no gaps in the wall. If you have a connected or shared house go and start putting that popping popcorn on the wall!

Fake Ha! Fooled you. This is not a real t although it would be cool.
