Thunder in your head? (kbin.social)

A long while back I was hanging out with one of my sisters and she said that she hears thunder in her head when she gets startled.

Me: "Scuse me. What?"
Her: "You know. That thunder you hear when someone startles you."
Me: "Again. What?"
Her: "You don't hear thunder when someone startles you?"
Me: "Uh, no."
Her: "Oh. I thought that happened to everybody."

Is this a thing? Does this happen to anybody else out there? She did struggle with depression for much of her life. Could that have had something to do with it?

r/earrumblersunite , consisting of people who claimed they could voluntarily "rumble" this muscle, and I happen to be one of them.

okay how is this the first i'm hearing of this?? I've been able to do this as long as I can remember, I didn't realise not everybody could until this moment

I can do this too. Weird. I just thought everyone can do it. I just flex the muscles around me ears.

Hahah probably because most people don't know to call themselves an "ear rumbler", but better late than never.
