no you are really an alien.
an air bubble in your jaw
yes, it's called equalization. everyone does it automatically. most people don't notice it.
Sometimes happen to me! I don't know what it is! but mine passes if yours don't i suggest u get medical advice! im an alien too then! lol
that is just pressure...just like when your ears get stopped up, u can hold your nose and blow really hard and it unstops them...it is nothing wrong, u can just hear the change in the pressure behind your ear drums when you swallow...

Check for pressure. You may have blood pressure or cervical pressure. That is the reason.
message from moron
ur jaw blocks the air and push it up to ur ears!
yes, your ear are in a way connected to your nose and throat. when you gulp, you have to close your mouth, thereby putting pressure on your ears...hope that helps
when you in shower tip head so the water fills them up, then it will clear the wax if you do it regular
your ears click?
close but not really, you only hear it there because your whole larynx and oropharynx are moving up and down pushing your hyoid bone over some muscles and tendons. the click you hear is reverberated up to your ears.

If it isnt this it could be your TMJ (temperomandibular (jaw) joint) but i dont recall this moving in swallowing.

If its neither of these i'm stumped, could be a pressure equalising thing inside your ear, have your ears checked nevertheless especially if the click is painful.

If the click doesnt hurt, best bet is to ignore it..........

I'm afraid not everyones ears click

sorry
It's a warning system built into your.body;not everyone has this feature.Flaunt it.
The passageways of the ears, nose and throat are all connected and the cracking you hear is the air equalising around.
