The New Leader Of The Opposition Party/
News4 mins ago
I have been told today of a way to make yourself be heard in the loudest of places. Apparently this is a method used by DJs etc to communicate .I have never seen it though so I suspect it IS a leg pull. But maybe....
All you have to do is, put your finger on the other persons ear-the little bit that sticks out from the side of your head , not the lobe part - while they speak. The sound is said to travel down the arm and be received somehow by the 'listener'.
What do you think?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I have seen a documentary along the same lines regarding deaf people.
Apparently they can 'hear' using a balloon (an ordinary party one) because they can feel the vibrations through their cheek or head and it translates into sounds inside their head...or something (?) It has to be touching them I think
Sorry I can't be more specific, this is just a general gist of what happened and I don't know how it works, but perhaps the theory is the same sort of thing.
Certainly vibrations can be translated into the brain and "heard". Beethoven was probably the most famous person who used this method when he had gone completely deaf to carry on composing and ensure he had a "good song". He'd put this stick thing into his mouth on the roof and it would connect to the piano and he could hear the sound through the vibrations.
Now whether I could hear my partner whilst at a rave by putting my finger on her ear bone is another matter. Next time I'm at a loud party I'm gonna give it a try.
Cheers.
