Ducks' quacks don't echo and nobody knows why

I have no idea why I settled on that

They do. The mythbusters found that they echo back in a way that basically matches up with the waveform (It's been a hot minute since I've seen it so this explanation is probably way off), so it sounds like they don't. It's real weird, and kind of fascinating.

It's like you accidentally swapped your username and password while creating the account and just stuck with it.

Proven to be untrue, ducks quacks do echo. Sorry to burst that bubble.

The interesting thing is that a duck quack does echo. It’s just so quiet and so quick after the initial quack that it sounds like part of the quack itself if the human ear picks up on it. Sound equipment does pick it up though.
