This year’s Ig Nobel peace prize goes to the team from the University
of Zurich, who studied the effects of playing the didgeridoo on relieving sleep
apnea.
The didgeridoo is a musical instrument developed by indigenous
Australians, and apparently learning to play it can strengthen muscles used in breathing, leading to relief of moderate sleep apnea.
So if you share a room with a snorer, consider the didgeridoo as a
Christmas gift.
