Kiss Kills Woman's Hearing

Posted by Jill Harness in Everything Else, Odd News on December 13, 2008 at 4:22 pm

A 20-something woman in China recently had her left ear drum blown out by a massive kiss. She has become partially deaf as a result of the passionate kiss.

Chinese media companies are now spreading warnings about the dangers of kissing. It seems it is pretty easy for any kiss to blow out an ear drum because pressure can be imbalanced between the two ears, which can lead to one of the drums breaking.
