I used to have to use it to ignore people, now I have Bluetooth hearing aids.

Gravdigr · 03-05-2020, 03:35 PM

I've been doing it my whole life.

I just didn't know what I was doing.

Left ear only; but, easy peasy that one.

Now I'm curious if it's genetic? can your kids, siblings and parents do it? the article doesn't mention how the population is divided, %wise. I need moaaaar facts. About this thing I can't do. It doesn't sound fun though (haha)

Can you wiggle your ears?

xoxoxoBruce · 03-05-2020, 10:16 PM

How do you do this? Think about it? Move some part of your face or head?

but I can wiggle all of my toes independently -which apparently you shouldn't be able to- well I could until I had foot surgery -that foot is still recovering, the two toes that shouldn't be independent are "as they should be " :/ ...but I'm working on it

If you can wiggle your ears, it's those muscles. If you can't... look upward as high and hard as you can (with your eyeballs, not your head), close your eyelids, and clench your jaw repeatedly.

Nope, 40 years of hearing aids may have something to do with it.

For me, it's somewhat tied to pushing the back sides of my tongue, near the back of the teeth, slightly up and forward. Not directly tied, as I can do either without the other.
