    I'm not sure the product is well-served by choosing a model whose earwax has likely grown to epic proportions from countless hours watching QVC.

    Sean need's a custom hand held mirror to see his anus?


    Just stand in front of a big mirror and bend over and look through your legs at the mirror. Simple as that :P. Or if you flexible, just twist sideways and spread dem cheeks!

    It's more fun to tell gullible people that they can see their ears if they turn their heads fast enough.


    It works on kids. One word: Hilarious.

    @homerjay wants Boston Legal back!: That's because this product would never work in Japan. They'd end up building some wacky, ear cleaning robot...

    I agree it's all very gross and funny BUT...


    This looks like a helpful device, for one simple reason: you should never put Q-tips in your ears. That's right, doctors everywhere have been saying it for a long time, but no one listens. Last time a doctor looked into my ears, she said my eardrum was bruised and scratched in three different places, and asked me what kind of scouring and scrubbing I was doing.


    And here I thought I'd been careful.


    The ability to check and see if you've got orange junk showing would be nice and could cut down on unnecessary cleanings, which can harm your hearing.

    I could see many other questionable uses for this as well....


    I might be giving myself away here but when I was in cosmetology school we would help the little old lady's with there ear care like trimming and cleaning the outside for teaching purposes and just because some really can't do it themselves. I am so glad I never have to do that again. The things you would see should never been seen by anyone. ever

    I once saw a documentary of this Chinese Dr. who had these tools specially made out of bone just to clean out your ear while he used a scope to really get in there and dig stuff out. People should not be doing this on their own...especially old people.

    Okay, this is the second post concerning earwax. It's becoming almost as bad as the Steve Jobs' health posts! :P

    @educating_fire01: So this reminds me of someone who wrote that earwax tastes really sour. Just non-chalantly, like its an everyday thing to be eating earwax. Written on here somewhere: [www.anonboard.com]
