The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

2. It's not just you.

My first thought was "Yup, that's how a black hole would sound."

3. Sounds a lot like a hurricane.

The black hole even has an eye like a hurricane. I suppose it has to be the the movement of the gases that makes the sound. Don't think there would be any sounds coming from inside the black hole.
