it would make the same amount of sound it would make if someone was there to witness it or if no one was around. Having someone there to hear it does not increase the volume it makes. Use ur head...


modern physics will tell you otherwise

if no one can hear it then there is no sound.
Sound - the sensation produced by stimulation of the organs of hearing by vibrations transmitted through the air or other medium.

the better question is: did it actually fall?

I voted yes. It's a matter of relevance because it doesn't matter if a human isn't there to observe.
