Title: Why does music seem to go faster when I am yawning?
Post by: John Burnap on 09/05/2014 22:02:15

Every time I am listening to music and I yawn, the tempo gets faster. I don't notice any change in the pitch, only the tempo.

There are two ideas: The ear is changing somehow during the yawn, or the perception of time is changing (seriously).
