I can't help thinking American World Records aren't quite the same as everybody else's 
The Olympic boxing and Velodrome instantly spring to mind.

Because nobody else has ever bothered to record it before is the sole reason they are able to claim this 'record' I reckon.

I think this is the in thing at the moment. Wasn't this record broken a few weeks ago before the chiefs-raiders game by the seahawks?
It'll probably soon stop when someone sues for damages caused by the noise.

they obviously weren't recording at Brighton & Hove Albion vs Boston United in the LDV Trophy at Withdean Stadium in 2003
my ears were literally bleeding

True, although I was querying the 'world' part of it.
By World Record they do mean North America, right?

are you suggesting the crowd was noisy at the boxing & velodrome?
They mean the NFL probably, although in the video they do mention 'outdoor' so that would exclude your precious velodromes. The Withdean's still in with a shout though.
Was that not the case then?

if you're comparing it to crowds at an american football games, then its quite cute
Ah that's pretty loud for outdoors.
There's got to be a football match that can out do it though.
The what about the thingy stadium in Brazil, or Parkhead when Rangers are popping over.
I'm comparing the noise level, but as Husty says it becomes a moot point as it's indoors v outdoors.
114 decibels, a bloody good effort

I was there for the Bolt 200m final win in the Olympics, and also for the Joshua points decision in the final at Excel. They were both pretty loud. But nothing compares to the noise when Eric Potts scored 2 in the last 5 minutes to over turn Sunderland, back in 78 at the Goldstone in front of about 31000. THAT was pwoppa noisy.........

Americans set a record for a 'soccer' game? Blimey, would of though stadiums like Anfield, Celtic Park or some of the Turkish or Italian sides on Champions League nights would of been louder.
