100 decibels would be something equivalent to a jet engine. If you can barely hear a jet engine then your answer is true. :)
A soft whisper from 5 meters away is 10 dB and that is considered 'barely audible'... so unless you have a typo, the answer is definitely false for 100dB.

False. A sound that loud is very loud indeed, and nearly loud enough to cause ear damage.
