Weird things your body does
Post something weird your body does/has done before.
Sometimes when I lay on my back with any kind of pressure on my neck from a pillow, I can hear a little "fizzle" noise in my neck. I've been told it's my spinal fluids moving around because they're being pinched off from me laying there. I can also produce a low rumbling noise with my ears. Only I can hear it. My girlfriend can do it too, but she's the only other person I know who can. If I put my ear up to hers, she can hear me do it and I can hear her do it. Kinda cool. One more: I once took my spine out of alignment by popping my neck too much (I don't do that anymore). One of the vertebrae was out of place. I couldn't move my hand above my head. It was all messed up and I was concerned, thinking I should go to the hospital. My dad said it was fine, so I didn't. At the end of the day, I laid down on my back, and I felt it pop back into place. It was freaky and cool. |

I can do it too. I also do it when I'm popping an air hose loose, it prevents ringing in my ears later from the noise. |

Ever hear of this? These people are extremely proud of their ear rumble abilities. Some of them are really arrogant: https://www.reddit.com/r/earrumblersassemble/ Also, I think this is more common, but can anyone here pop their ears at will, without pinching your nostrils or yawning? |

Yep. I can do it by moving my jaw. Useful skill sometimes. The road coming down to my city is high enough that I will often have to clear my ears a time or two coming down it.

Yup! My weird thing is Exploding Head Syndrome. I "suffer" from both the auditory and visual incarnations, so sometimes when falling asleep, I'll either hear a very loud bang (sounds like a door being slammed to me) or see a bright flash that wakes me up.

Boils!
They are just plain disgusting!!! I haven't had one in 20 years but there was a period of about 15 years when I would get them frequently and in the most bizarre places! It had nothing to do with me neglecting good hygiene; I shower (thoroughly) with soap & hot water at least once a day. I had one very serious infection but a very funny and disgusting experience. I won't go into the finer details but it could be visualized as similar to giving birth and interesting enough that the emergency physician paged virtually every intern and training nurse to gather around and observe. There were probably 20 people adding to their education at the expense of my vanity!

That's interesting! I was under the impression that modern subs (if not all!) interior environments were at approximately surface air pressure!

Yeah, approximatly, but much like flying in air craft, even a small change in atmospheric pressure, if done quickly will make your ears feel "full" and you need to equalize. we used to "pack air". A surface ventilate line up had air comming in the snorkle mast, through the blower room and out to the ends of the boat. the old air would then come back through the passageways to the sail and out the sail hatch. Run the blowers in that config for about 8 minutes and you have over turned the air on a 637 class sub 3x... well at the end, they would shut the sail hatch, but leave the blower running and pack additional air into the sub. Normal atmospheric pressure is about 29.9 inches or 780 mmHg... we would be over 800 (most pitot barometers peg at 31 inches or about 800mmHg...) I've seen the needle wrapped around the pin. Just to let you know, it had no, krikkkk, no , sttttdddd, no effect on me grrrrk, what so ever. I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.....

Add me to the list of tympanic muscle flexing and the ear popping without intervention.
I'll add a freaky one to the list. Sleep Paralysis Basically your brain wakes up from sleeping but your body doesn't. You can't move, can't speak, can't open your eyes but you are fully aware of being awake and can hear normally. It's happened to me probably a half dozen or so times in my life. The first two or three times it happened I had no idea what it was and scared the living daylights out of me. I saw some show on Discovery/TLC/Nova that talked about it and since then it's a lot less frightening. |

I can pop my ears at will.
I can wiggle each ear individually, eye brows, etc. Excellent facial muscle control. Move one eye at a time if they're crossed. My sternum likes to pop if I stretch. Kind of an odd one.

Ooh, I just thought of another one; ocular migraines. I had my first and only one a little more than a year ago. I was on Skype with my now-fiancee when I noticed a small spot in my vision had gone gray. (This isn't really a good description as it wasn't actually gray, but more like there was absolutely no definition in that spot at all.) Over time, the spot grew into a ring that looked a quite a bit like the picture below.
It slowly expanded over time until it went outside my field of vision. The whole event lasted maybe twenty minutes. Evidently they're about as harmless as any other migraine (maybe less so because there was no pain at all), so I never even bothered seeing a physician about it.

No weed on my end.
The show I saw that talked about it did say that it is most likely the actual reason behind a lot of "alien abduction" stories. I could see it, your brain goes to some weird places in the few minutes that you are completely paralyzed but also coherent. |

Anyone here sleepwalk? I do it occasionally, but I rarely leave my room. I normally just get up and change clothes or something. It's weird when I go to bed buck nekkid and wake up wearing dockers and a button-up. |

Now that I read the labels on all drinks, and avoid the ones with aspartame, it's been 15 years since I had a migraine. Obviously I can't prove aspartame was the cause, but it sure seems that way. |

I drink soda with extreme moderation anyway, so I tend to drink soda with either HFCS or actual sugar in it. Besides, a Jack and Diet Coke is kinda nasty.

I sleepwalk as well, but it's usually more like sleepgetupturnthelightsonandstandthere. My fiancee hates it when I do that.
I haven't had another migraine after that one and I haven't changed any habits, so I'm not sure what triggered it. It's a good thing it's not aspartame, because I'm pretty sure my blood is 80% diet soda (one of my worst habits.)

We used to have bells on our doorknobs downstairs so my parents could catch me before I got too far out of the house.

Just remembered another one. Does anyone else here get nosebleeds if they sleep with a fan pointed at their face? It dries out my nose and I wake up .2 seconds before my nose drips blood.

Feeling of falling for a couple of seconds while lying in bed. A couple of times, woke in the middle of the night looked at the clock, then all of a sudden I was sure I was falling. Braced myself for a hard landing then realized I was still lying in bed.

But once way back when the wife and I were first married she said she woke up to me holding her face between my hands and kind of adjusting her head on the pillow. I laid back down and she sat up just as I spun around and smashed my fist into the pillow where her head had just been. She said I laid back down and went to sleep. She spent the rest of the night sitting there watching me. |
