Why changing light conditions can make you sneeze

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

A 5 live listener called presenter Danny Baker to assure him that his condition - sneezing after emerging from a dark cinema - is actually a thing. Listener James said the condition was probably photic sneeze reflex, which ran in his family. He added that it was also known as Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helio-opthalmic Outburst Syndrome or Achoo for short. No, seriously, he wasn't joking... This clip is originally from The Danny Baker Show on Saturday 16 April 2016
