The Science Behind Motion Sickness

(YouTube link)

The latest from AsapSCIENCE tries to convince me that my ears make my stomach hurt when I go on carnival rides that I shouldn't. What do they know? -via Geekosystem


Excellent! I was one of those kids that barfed in the car, when I was still too small to see above the seats and out the windows. This was before car seats or seat belts. Given this explanation for motion sickness, wouldn't the advent of car seats for children, in addition to saving their lives, have helped prevent kids from puking so much, when they could better sync up their eyes and ears with their brains? Comments from parents?

I get so motion-sick that I feel sick if I'm watching scrolling credits at the end of a movie or TV show. I have to be heavily drugged to go on planes.
