I posted earlier about a product that is used for crowd control by blasting them with a unidirectional, acoustical "laser".
This is similar, but should be much more effective.
Your lungs have a resonance frequency. If that frequency was produced loud enough, it could induce cardiac arrest.

A kid did this a few years back with mosquitos.

Ever heard of "brown noise"? |
|
| |
Yes, I have! But I don't need yours, I have my own. |
|
| |
Wow, that's pretty nasty (if you're a mosquito)! |
|
| |
I'm confused about the whole brown noise thing - you see, I don't have any right now, and I'm not sure how I'd go about getting some (even if I wanted to). |
|
| |
But isn't this idea just a variation on that concept? If so, despite the interesting mosquito application, I'm afraid it really should be marked for removal. |
|

I doubt that human lungs have a resonant frequency. They are squishy, not rigid. Maybe, just maybe, a person's chest cavity could resonate if they are singing, but changing the tension of the diaphragm would stop that. Or even crouching in pain. |
|
| |
Besides, how would you detect someone's lung frequency? Ask them? |
|
| |
To progress from lung resonance to cardiac arrest is an entirely unwarranted step. How, exactly, do the two link up? |
|
| |
"If" and "could" are not good words to use in an idea. Mosquitoes and humans are not all that similar. [-] |
|

Bones might have a resonant frequency. I would bet on the mandible: it is hard. Teeth might also. Bones are in contiguity with many things that could dampen resonance. |
|
| |
What is the resonant frequency of old chestnuts? |
|
| |
Flash Bang grenades will not kill you but they do utilize sound as a weapon causing extreme discomfort or even hearing damage to victims. I really don't think the resonance thing would work. If you were looking at ultra sonic frequency's that might have some potential(cause your body to boil) |
