Kiss of deaf?
You probably already know what a French kiss is and maybe even an Australian Kiss (if not I’m not telling you) but what about a Chinese kiss? It turns out that a Chinese kiss is like a French kiss but much more dangerous.
An unnamed woman from Khuhai in Guangdong province got a little over amorous with her boyfriend and (here comes the science bit) busted her ear. The China Daily newspaper reported that:

The newspaper is concerned for the local populations safety adding:
“While kissing is normally very safe, doctors advise people to proceed with caution,”
