Hi, I’m Patrick. I’m a freelance science writer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training and a master’s in clinical exercise physiology. I used to work in the clinical setting as a certified athletic trainer, physical therapy aide, and a certified strength and conditioning specialist. After working in the clinical setting, I went back to school and became a teacher. The goal of my content is to help normal people, not just pre-med students, learn about the human body. That might mean explaining a topic from an anatomy class or exploring a topic from medical history.

The airpods fit me for about 5 seconds and then they fall out

[jordansmith]

This is how many people are listening to this in their AirPods

[skillywilly]

Who else watching this while their AirPods are falling out

[ShawntiaKnott]

I just keep violently shoving my ear pods down my ear canal until it feels snug

[EbruEvermore]

This makes so much sense. Bc my headphones always are good on my left one but always fall out on my right ear lol

[datrandimtho]

Every time I smile my AirPods fall out 😢

[fotissk]

I find it absurd that companies go for this one size design and not care to include some silicon covers or hooks. The extra cost would be so small and the functionality and the sense of "safety" when walking/running would be awesome.

[definelowl]

I mean. I totally understand the reasons why they fall off and stuff. However, other earphones don't and I would still consider this an obvious and significant design flaw of Airpods

[crosca]

I always use to wear a head band which covers my ears while I'm running with my airpods just to make sure they're not falling off and it seems to work quite well for me.

[ilenparz]

My airpods are always falling out and it’s really annoying

[DHen-yeiv]

Wear them in the opposite ear with the “ stem “ pointing up and sort of tucked in under the rim of your upper ear. Not only do they stay in they are far less visible. Try it.

[Rick-gstx]

Me: *put my airpods*
Airpods: Ight imma head out

[JoeyPaone]

I figured I always had super tiny ear canals.. most of my family can’t keep ear buds in either

[username]

I can only use ear buds that stick into your ear.

[EnergyAndLightAwakening]

A solution I just figured out is to switch or reverse the buds. They sound just as good if not better and fit much snugger and never fall out. I took a year to realize as I accidentally put the wrong one in while sleeping to affirmations and noticed it sounded and fit better.

[astle]

Why I am I even watching this...
I don’t even have an AirPod 😂

[kate-scpu]

My AirPods fell out at least 5 times during this video

[FluffyBunny]

I can't tell if my earbuds are too small and falling out or too big and pushing themselves out, but at this point I think my ears are purposefully changing sizes to troll me.

[escanortheone]

For me the right one fits perfectly but the left one falls out

[zaibian]

Mine usually fall out just as I pass over a grate or when I'm directly over water. My ear-pods fall out 37, 123, 425 times a day, mostly when I'm on the boardwalk and they disappear in the grass below. I finally found the answer, a G-clamp and a couple of blocks of wood. Superglue was too permanent. I couldn't see with the gaffer tape or the head band which kept slipping down anyway. But the G-clamp kept my ear-pods in for just over 30 seconds, before they slipped out and between the blocks of wood when my ears and the G-clamp hit the floor. The problem is the same as trying to keep a tennis ball in an inverted funnel. No amount of friction is going to keep it there. Anyone interested in tracking down Jonathan Ive, designer of the ear bud for the iPod which is where the rot started? He's currently in hiding do to a customers attempt to force him to use his own product resulting in considerable damage to his ear drum. Honest, I was only trying to help.
