People on this board seem to disagree though. Wikipedia is always thought of as unreliable..:stoned:
Has anyone ever tried ear firecrackers? That'll clean your head out.
Wikipedia may be right and it may be wrong all I know is they worked for me when I tried them, so based on that I highly reccomend them.Quote:

Well, we never heard back from bentleygtgirl. I think it's safe to assume she imolated herself and sticking a lit candle in your ear is not a good idea unless you are trying to make a martyr of yourself for a very important cause.
you crack me up dragonrider
Oh I know what those are now. I have heard of em called sum thin different. They work well for water in the ears that you just cant get out. or when your ears wont pop after a plane ride. I think it works on the pressure difference after the top of the cone is lit. I had smoke signals comming out of my head one time. preaty kool
I've been wanting to try those for a while- wonder how it went?
How it went? It went running down the street with it's hair on fire!Quote:

One of the dangers of using ear candles is that it not only sucks the wax out of your ears, but it also takes a little bit of brain each time.
