The hanger reflex works on me. A wire hanger with the flat side on the left
side of my head makes my head turn to the left. Not a snap turn or anything
dramatic but it happens non the less.

Now, where's your hanger?

Weird. But there is so much we don't know - particularly about the brain.
Sue - That's for sure.
I'd rather have my head turned by a beautiful woman, but I guess I'll stick with the hangers.
Yankee Doodle went to town just to find some food, stuck a hanger on his head and became a turning dude. He turned in circles for days and days poor old Yankee Doodle, such a mystery and they never found...what happened to his Noodle.
Thought it was an US abortion toolkit.
I'll experiment with this the next time I have nothing else to do :-)
What is this, April Fool's Day?
Bill - You have to use what's available. I may have heard there are some other things that guys do with hangers but that's another post.
Simmons - DId you have some kind of seizure when you put the hanger on your head? 😄
Anon - It's about to be.
Kathy - Like today? 😁
Deb - I thought it was a joke at first. The NIH article proved different.
That's amazing. No, I didn't do it, because I have a creaky neck and it kind of scares me, but I read the articles and watched the video. The human body is weird and wonderful.
why would anyone even think to put a hanger on their head in the first place?
all my hangers are safely in the wardrobe where they should be and none of them are wire.
Jenny - Put this on your things to-do list.
River - Hanger heads all over the world are going to be insulted by your dismissive attitude about them... HA! 😁
I have been pinching my head with a wire hanger for 5 minutes now but no reflex. Am I doing it wrong?
Ok did a little more reading - guess everyone does not have this reflex. So I must be in the non reflex group.
Lady - I read where you just put the hanger on sideways. Another place it said to put it on so the flat side is on the left or right side of the temple. But you may not have the reflex.
Strange
Cloudia - Did you try it?
