It's divided the world more than Obama vs Trump or whether selfie sticks are genius or tacky: when you listen to this clip do you hear Yanny or Laurel?

A video asking people what they hear when a voice clip is played has been screwing with people's minds across the world and even has the TshisaLIVE office in a tizz.

Take a listen to it here and see what word you hear in the clip.

Meanwhile, a Nigerian comedian Dulo Folarin Harris, popularly known only as Dulo, has taken the debate right into an African home.

Man put it into a skit where he asked his father what he heard and, as predicted, he got a proper beat down.

The dad hit him with a hundred questions that we've all heard from our parents, neh?They include:

Have you been doing drugs?

Are your ears deceiving you?

What is wrong with you?

The correct answer, in case you were wondering, is: Funky

Who knew?!
