At a very early age I learned to clear my ears voluntarily without having to yawn, chew gum, pop them by holding my nose and blowing, or any other method. I simply open the ears by activating those muscles. Its one of my earliest memories as a child, learning that I could do this.
Does anyone else have this capability? I have asked around the airport before during bullshit sessions, and usually got called out on it as certified bullshit. But I'm serious. I can sit here, with my arms at my side, mouth and nose opened or closed, whatever makes no difference, and open my ears and equalize the pressure simply by working the muscle internally. And its not a Valsalva based maneuver either, I'm not using any air in my lungs to do it.
I was just curious who else is able to do this?
