Can you make sound come out of your ears?

[Dilbertian]

I can make clicking and roaring noises in my ears, and the truly weird thing is that others can hear the clicking.

I always thought it was all in my head, until one day I was curled up on the sofa, clicking away in my head, with teen dd snuggled up next to me, and suddenly she asked "What's that clicking noise?"

Google suggests that I am tensing my tensor tympani muscle to make the roaring noise, but I cannot find any explanation for how I make the clicking noise. I think it must be something to do with the Eustacian Tube, as I cannot do it when I'm bunged up with a cold.

Any other ear weirdies out there, who can generate sound from their ears?

@MysweetAudrina

No, but if you rearrange the letters in ears I can certainly produce some fine acoustics from that body part.

@SarahAndQuack oh yes I can do the clicking thing then, apparently! I'll have to as ds if he can hear it. No roaring though 😥

Anyone else sat here desperately trying to 'click and roar'?

It's not really a roar. I think the people who don't know what we are talking about are imagining something quite different to what it is. It's a bit like the noise you hear underwater. A rumbly type of pressure or like a wind gusting down a narrow tunnel.

Not like a lion then?

Disappointed

@mistletoeandshite

I can make my ears click and roar! Other people can only hear the clicking though, not the roaring, as that would be weird.

So hearing the clicking wouldn't be weird?

I can click and roar I thought it was normal
