Would anyone try this? Would there be any value to it, do you think?
@doc_ramadani What do you think doctor?

I have done this a lot of times. This is a classical laryngoscopy. I tried it with myself as well as with other students at university. Nowadays we do this in a more comfortable way for the patients - we use endoscopy. We use the way through the nose which is much more convenient for the patient.
I found a nice video from a colleague in the US who demonstrates this with a female singer.

Ken teaches us a very healthy way to sing. So I think there is no indication to do that. We only do that in medicine if a patient has problems. If you want to try it yourself ... go on, do it. It is a regular procedure in medicine. But I think there is really no need to do that if you do what Ken teaches us.
And if you really want to see it in action I could ask a friend of mine to do a video of my vocal cords. She is an ENT.
But, it won't me make a better singer so I'd prefer to spend my time on the exercises, Elton.

Very interesting discussion.
yes, they are very fragile and small. And they are able to produce so much sound. Isn't the human body amazing?

yes, I think we both found the way to the best place we could ever land. I am curios upon your next demo in the students' area. Your last one was very cool. Very "vibey". Even I would call myself a classical rock/pop guy I tried myself a dance track today. It was a lot of fun. And I will post it soon. Be aware, Disco Doc is coming to the house.
