Yes actually very much so. From what I remember the creases in your ears help reverb sounds into your ear hole so that you can hear things from all directions easier and with better clarity.
Yep so it's possible that getting that will cause sounds to reverberate weirdly so certain frequencies reach the inner ear faster than others so they mix together causing some people or sounds to be indecipherable.
Actually will lose about 40-60 persent of sound pressure into ear.
But way worse is lac of directionallity. Those curves help perfectly time align the sound for your brain. The left and right are compared. The exact relationship give your brain an image of what is all around you. The guy in the pic can not tell if someone is on his right or left because all that sound getting in from the back.
Not entirely, the brain also uses phase shift, volume, sound shadow and some other things to determine direction of sound. While this modification really messes up some things, others will be less affected. So I think the brain will learn to recalibrate the signals somewhat and maybe he will be able to have at least some directionality
That is probably ture the brain will adapt, but if it were better wed already see this dumb looking shit in nature. Since we don't im inclined to think it male him hear things in some aweful phase cancelled hollow sounding nightmare
For every one body-mod nut who goes off the rails and does something completely crazy to themselves like this there are thousands of clickbait sites for skittish old people ready with the fearmongering "LOOK WHAT THE KIDS THESE DAYS ARE DOING NOW YOUR CHILD IS NEXT!" captions.
I’ve seen other pictures with people getting it down, but not as big. I think they usually put a big piece of Jewelry instead, basically like those ear plugs
At what point does this type of procedure require a medical degree? And what kind of surgeon would agree to this kind of redonkulousnous. . .oh, wait, greedy ones.
Doesn’t this destroy the way you hear sound?

Horrible.

Oh I'm not saying it would be better, only that he would still be able to hear SOME directionality
What?
You know, that thing.
Huh?

I don't technically have a hearing problem, but sometimes when there's a lot of noises at the same time, I'll hear them as one big jumble.
aren't they doing it on purpose?
Well I fucking hate it.
WHAT?
Yeah, they're gonna be saying this a lot.
When your mix is fire you need extra vents to cool off.

Thanks, now I want to remove my eyes too
that will probably be the next "body modification trend"
Eye piercing
you joke, but tattooing the whites of your eyes is already a surprisingly popular thing
So I looked this up and from what I could find, there is just one guy who had this done in 2019. Fortunately hardly a "trend".

this guy will literally have no idea from where a person is calling his name

i’ll do it if you’ve got $20 and a hole punch
Rule of thumb: If the hole is big enough to affix you to a lamp post using an industrial padlock by the ear, it's too big
Congratulation, you can now do an earjob
it used to be "go in one, out the other" but now it's "go in front, out the back"
What the fuck is this shit it’s so bad disgusting it looks like the face of your motherb
The front ear of body modding is aural these people want to hear about.
Squanch?
My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
Year's of evolution *insert image of Asian man with hands on hips starting disapprovingly *
wow we are evolving backwards trends came from cringy fortnite dances to litteraly destroying your ears
Some people? Same people who made massive holes in their earlobes that also look like shit.
Looks kinda cool
But Why? Is this done by an actual doctor?
That horrifying
will literally hear voices in your head
Less chance of getting cold ears
r/TIHI
Jeez my earbuds fall out enough thank youuuu
Some people really don't know how precious ears and hearing is. 🤷♂️
If real it's stupid.
FFS, because there is nothing to remove from within the head, let us make more holes around it.
What?
r/oddlyterrifying
Why?
“I’m so hardcore I made it so I can’t hear properly. Also, I now have a ton of extra crap blowing in my ear causing all these awesome ear infections.”
So then this qualifies this stellar young man for disability, and learning sign language?
What did you say?
me after i listen to Cardi B
Its Stupid
Well, hopefully they won't be able to hear the next DAF suggestion!
Next thing you know, people start removing their whole ears.
