(unless you have a completely blocked sinus, then the pressure has nowhere to go and you blow that eardrum out.)
Eek! You just reminded of my sister telling me she caused a nosebleed trying to equalise while scuba diving one day!
I wonder of you can get prescription swim goggles? 🤔
Handy if you don't have your glasses and a good security measure, since thieves can't see where they're going.My brother @danclarke has a book of satirical inventions. One is a prescription windshield.
🤣😂
Dental barotrauma is the ickiest one though. More for scuba divers.
If you get a filling and the dentist leaves an air pocket in there, as you go deeper the increased pressure sucks blood from your gum into the air pocket.
On the way back up the blood has nowhere to go, so your tooth explodes.
Ooooh, that's nasty!!!
