Which is why most male gym rats emphasize those and rarely forget them while usually forgetting/delaying leg day. There's a reason the phrase "got legs for days" is usually aimed at a girl in heels with her calves forced to have tight form. | ||

Did the light last 1-3 seconds as well? Could it have been an electric spark? What kind of light bulb do you have in the lamp? Police car with sirens passing by outside?  Did anyone else hear/see it? Did it smell burnt afterwards? Constant light or flickering? | ||

The most leg you can usually show without looking like a complete sloth are something like 3/4 pants. Neither do men usually wear very tight pants, nor do they have anything even remotely as cool as skirts. Thus, the only time when people really see your legs is usually when you are swimming. For the last couple of years, I noticed men increasingly wearing extremely tight pants around me(not me because I am an old soul and have unappealing legs). I see disturbing amount of men legs barring swim environment. | ||

It came from electricity for sure and the sound was like it was in my room. I think it was electric spark because light, sound and source all direct to it but I don't know anything about electricity and I wouldn't have expected normal + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.ikea.com/PIAimages/54651_PE159236_S4.jpg) I live alone but since I have sound recorded I know I'm not insane. I didn't smell any burn afterwards nor did I smell the electric smell. I also didn't find any burn marks in area I heard it from. | ||

I didn't smell any burn afterwards nor did I smell the electric smell. I also didn't find any burn marks in area I heard it from. The best guess I can come up with is some kind of electrical surge or discharge into the light. Maybe due to some connection between the bulb and the socket or something that could create sparks making the noise. If the thread in the bulb get too much current, i'll get too warm and will give a more white/blue light... It'd then fade back to normal yellow in a second or so I guess... A few things don't quite fit, like why the crappy connection with the socket would be associated with a surge in current, and why the thread in the buld didn't just melt at the higher temperature. You say 11W, so that is probably an energy-saving bulb then, not the usual glow-thread bulb? Why knows what they do if they get varying or surging currents. Don't know, with this information, my first guess would be something like that. Current variations in the bulb and maybe sparks either between the socket and bulb, or inside the bulb if that is possible. I can't really get all the details together though. Maybe there is a better explanation. | ||

Maybe there is a better explanation. This would fit my experience perfectly. Nearest large power lines are 400m away but maybe the sound is large enough. Although no professionals arrived in whole night. | ||
