It is my understanding that at 125db you will suffer immediate permanent hearing loss.

It wouldn't be pleasant, and with extended exposure it would cause injury, but it wouldn't be immediate. One wouldn't listen at those levels anyway. If you think it seems like a good idea clearly you've never experienced it.
Walked out after a Foghat/J. Geils concert ended in the 70's. Festival seating, so we were right down front at the old Civic Arena in Pittsburgh.
Go out to the parking lot, and noticed my ears were ringing, and it sounded like cotton was stuffed in my ears. That was in my 20's, and I'm 72 now with tinnitus.

I've been in bands since 1965, worked the FOH at a major concert venue where 110dB was the average for three years. My hearing tests fine, with an upper limit of 12kHz, which is normal for my age. I spent a lot of time shooting too, back in '72, when no one wore protection. If anyone was going to join the Pete Townshend club it would be me, but somehow I've managed to avoid it.
