Does it?

Or does sound only exist if someone is there to hear it?

[gingeralbino]

no trees have a magic speaker which only switches on when someone is near it.

Set up a tape recorder near the tree.

Then you'll have your answer.

Doesn't the tape recorder hear it then?

Total silence, only a couple of birds flying away is the only sound..

[D4thincarnation]

Yea but nobody is there

That would make someone here it via the tape recorder.

If no one heard it or ever would hear it would it make a sound?

Sound exists whether some one is there or not there to here it.

If no one was there to see it, how would you know a tree fell?

yes, of course it makes a sound but nobody is going to know it fell.
