A relevant story IMO from my long-life recollections. I remember my father once, about 1970, holding forth on a programme he had heard on the radio. "There were these young people, and they pointed out to them that if they went on listening to music at the volume they kept playing it, they would finish up deaf. And do you know what they said? They answered that THEY DIDN'T CARE!" - he concluded in horror ~~ and took a long drag on his cigarette.
