Gamers are discovering dents in their head and blaming it on head phones; let's know the truth

Pictures and videos of gamers discovering dents on their heads are going viral on the internet. They are saying that the indent is caused by the excessive use of headphones.

However, a study about headphones causing indent is suggesting otherwise. According to a study published in the National Library of Medicine, headphones cannot cause dents on the head as it takes at least 135 kg to cause a minor fracture to the skull.

The study also mentioned that headphones cannot cause dents and even if they do it would be so minor that it will vanish on their own.

Excessive use of headphones might not cause dents but it can definitely cause permanent hearing loss, as per the study.
