Comment on Is it normal to be able to shut your nose from within?

How else do people blow out birthday candles, and blow up balloons? The air could just escape through the nose!
I think with diving and other situations is to prevent the exposure of the inside of the nose. Especially when jumping in the water and and pressure can be much higher.

From what i know, there are two ways to close your nose. one is via the soft palate. probably everyone can do that.
the other is via the musculis nasalis, which op probably meant. most people can’t do that.
