Sept. 14 (UPI) — More than 100 people gathered in San Francisco to release their frustrations by simultaneously screaming at the ocean.<\/p>\n

The “Guttural Scream at the Sea” event, organized by local resident Danielle Egan, featured more than 100 people shouting into the Pacific Ocean on Saturday at Vista Del Mar, overlooking Ocean Beach.<\/p>\n

“I felt like I needed a really good scream, and I think it’d be more fun with other people. There’s a lot of things to scream about in this day and age, so I figured we’d just get a lot of different people together and scream,” Egan told SFGate.<\/a><\/p>\n

A flyer for the event<\/a> listed “many good reasons to scream,” including “rent,” frustrations with AI, unspecified “anger” and the fact that it “feels good.”<\/p>\n

The group scream was preceded by a screaming contest, where participants were judged based on<\/a> the volume, length and style of their vocalizations.<\/p>\n

Olivia Gugliemotto, who won first place in the contest, let out a scream measured at 121.9 decibels — just shy of the world record<\/a>, 129 decibels.<\/p>\n

Gugliemotto, who was awarded a small megaphone as her prize, said her scream was aimed at “the world in general.”<\/p>\n

“I live far away from my family. That makes me sad. Capitalism, the environment, genocide, a lot of things,” she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sept. 14 (UPI) — More than 100 people gathered in San Francisco to release their frustrations by simultaneously…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":464228,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[182293,101,103,102,104,106,105,112508],"class_list":["post-464227","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-francisco","tag-danielle-egan","tag-san-francisco","tag-san-francisco-headlines","tag-san-francisco-news","tag-sf","tag-sf-headlines","tag-sf-news","tag-vista-del-mar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464227","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=464227"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/464227\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/464228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=464227"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=464227"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=464227"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
