sometimes.
esp when landing.

Decompress yourself.

Hold your nose closed with fingers and try to exhale
through.
Blop! Pressure equalized!

(Same for diving deep...)

did that.

fav part? why?

it even hurts sometime... but well, the feeling of
recovering audition is very nice. and underwater is better,
not the audition recover, but the feeling of being able to
go deeper and deeper and deeper...

My head feels like it could explode at any time. I was once
almost reduced to tears.

it doesn't hurt me at all, it just muffles the sound.. when
you do the nose blow thing it pops and feels really
refreshing.. = best part of flying

well when I try to decompress it feels like a gunshot to my
eardrum.

this trip wasnt so bad. only heart when I landed in Sydney.


I took a decompressant the entire time. had hose Earplanes
earplugs that block the pressure from fucking with you.

a better way to decompress for those who have painfull
decompressions is to get really warm water on a paper towel
and push it in your ear, hold it for a minute.

you
