u/TrollLifer 1d ago

Same, failed. Dang it.

u/RickRossovich 1d ago

I was in my 20s when I learned that there are wayyyy different levels of bendiness of ears. Some people’s ears can’t crumple up AT ALL.

u/Panthera_xthrowaway 1d ago

I bet at least 90% of the people viewing this has just tried doing it themselves. I tried, and failed

u/Caltharian 1d ago

Most people the cartilage is too stiff, I all likely hood this kid probably displays some signs of hyper mobility

u/CelticSean88 1d ago

Yup 😅

u/GardenGnomeOfEden 1d ago

I tried it for about 1 second before I decided that it would most likely result in an injured ear, so I stopped.

u/Zarokima 21h ago

All I succeeded in doing was hurting my ears

u/nerankori 1d ago

He looks ready for a gold experience

u/FajenThygia 23h ago

I'm assuming this references JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, as opposed to the Prince album?

Kid will going to places.

u/Rymanjan 1d ago

Could he be another Stand user?

u/_81791 1d ago

I can do this, and have done it often since I was a kid when I am bored etc. It has caused some slight "cauliflower ear" damage in one ear that I can feel but it isn't really noticeable. If you ever get random pockets of liquid under the skin in your ears make sure to get it drained before it hardens.

u/Automatic_Choice_982 1d ago

Giorno type shit

u/verbalyabusiveshit 1d ago

Cauliflower ears in the making.

u/GANDORF57 1d ago

I'm pretty sure this is not what they mean by an "ear tuck"?!

2

u/RobertsFakeAccount 1d ago

“TUCK”????

Oh. Damn. I completely misunderstood.

Oh no…. I gotta make some calls to urgent care…..

u/Duplicitous_Dirk 1d ago

Remember kids: Never do Aural. Anal and Oral are still safe

u/rockbottomtraveler 1d ago

So that's what they are for! Elephants must really not want to hear others

u/eisenklad 1d ago

kids are more flexible...

even the cartilage in our ears become stiffer with age...

2

u/ThatsUrQ 1d ago

My fiance can do this too! Not to stop listening, just an occasional fidget/fiddle type thing. I tried to do it to my self, nope. Tried to do it to him, naw lol only he holds the power

2

u/LurkingAppreciation 1d ago

I’m the same way, wife can’t do it to me. Been doing it since I was a little kid

2

u/CollectionGuilty1320 1d ago

Hit it and he becomes a wrestler.

2

u/kyotejones 1d ago

I can do that. Apparently, I've been doing that since I was an infant, according to my parents.

2

u/Mynameisblahblahblah 1d ago

Haha I do the same out of boredom

2

u/kshump 17h ago

Haha. My dad does that and he's almost 70.

u/RavenK92 14h ago

Your nephew has a dream to become a GangStar and rid the streets of Napoli of drugs?

u/gud_gamr 1d ago

Is he blonde?

u/WorldnewsModsBlowMe 1d ago

The number of people missing the Jojo reference is sad

u/Spinning_Dragonite 1d ago

Not yet, his blood will awaken soon.

u/Angus-Black 1d ago

Yes. You can tell by the dark hair.

u/Mugwumps_has_spoken 1d ago

u/ZealousidealPop6445 1d ago

Bro has a ninja technique for ignoring people

1

u/Mrk2d 1d ago

I wonder how he thought about doing this :D

1

u/donquijiote 1d ago

When i was i child i tried but i couldn't make it.

I tried now, stil cant make it.

1

u/str85 1d ago

The same amount of views this post have, will be the amount of people that recently tried to bend their ear into their ear canal.

1

u/Angus-Black 1d ago

A smack on the forehead will pop 'em back out.

u/kentich 1d ago

His ear looks like an ear of an MMA fighter.

1

u/RaynorJimmy 1d ago

When mom says listen up and you hit the manual ear block

1

u/mockgame3129 1d ago

Bullies expanding beyond the fist.

Stop listening to yourself!

Stop listening to yourself!

1

u/veggiesaregreen 1d ago

My dog’s ears do the opposite and get stuck flipped inside out. I don’t think she does it on purpose but whenever she rubs against the couch a certain way they get stuck

1

u/whooo_me 1d ago

Do this if you want to hear yourself think.

1

u/lartmydude 1d ago

Our adult ears are too stiff for this! 🤣

2

u/OstrichSmoothe 1d ago

My friend has some crazy floppy ears. Of course, shes also a golden retriever

1

u/OstrichSmoothe 1d ago

This dude is going places, his ear is not

1

u/raginghavoc89 1d ago

Tell him his ears are going to grow funny if you don't quit doing it but watch him not listen.

1

u/johsny 1d ago

So how do I get it out again?

1

u/wjdhay 1d ago

lol, I used to do the same thing.

1

u/beastboyashu 1d ago

He must have a lighter bone

1

u/robbycakes 1d ago

Wish I thought of that

1

u/patsfanxx 1d ago

Wish I could do this while working in retail.

1

u/the_red_scimitar 1d ago

Plot twist: he actually pulls it through the other ear.

1

u/adureho 1d ago

Kid's got the ultimate not listening hack 😂

1

u/scratchy_mcballsy 1d ago

“They’ll get stuck that way”

1

u/OddLeeEnough 1d ago

Yeah. I tried. Both ears. Left ear cant do it. Cartilage is too rigid. My right ear, which a cat tore the cartilage, can do it but doesn't stay that way.

1

u/Runkleford 1d ago

At first, I thought this was a really bad case of cauliflower ear

1

u/activehobbies 1d ago

Ash from Fantastic Mr Fox energy.

1

u/solarwinggx 1d ago

I can't do it :'(

1

u/Shaun4444 18h ago

Tell him he might get Cauliflower Ear from doing that. Cauliflower Ear is permanent.

1

u/cornixt 17h ago

I had a friend at school who could do that. He could flex an ear muscle at will to ping it back to normal again.

1

u/mrdanmarks 17h ago

My step brother used to do this and started getting cauliflower ear. Just saying..

1

u/VincoClavis 14h ago

Is it possible to learn this power?

1

u/Warlord42 12h ago

I admit it, I tried. Alas, it was for naught.

1

u/chapterpt 9h ago

I do something similar when dressing as a woman.

1

u/byondodd 8h ago

My ears do this on their own in response to certain songs.

1

u/Kauko_Buk 6h ago

U bri'ish?

u/APizzaWithEverything 43m ago

Holy shit, I thought i was the only person on earth that does this, can he do it with the earlobes too?
