Unleashing the Power: Are Cell Phones Stealthily Shaping Our Bones?

The profound impact technology has on our lives.

By KandeegPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

In a startling twist, a startling question arose:

Can our trusty cell phones possess such incredible power that they actually change the structure of our bones? Recently, this eye-opening topic has exploded across the media, leaving viewers gaping and thinking. It all stems from a groundbreaking scientific report that has shocked the research community.

Join David Shahar and Mark Sayers, pioneering biomechanical experts from Australia's Sunshine Coast University drawing on their expert knowledge of the intricate mechanics of life, they embark on a daring mission: to solve the puzzle of how our digital companions can reshape our skeletons. But they don't stop there. Shahar and Sayers plunge headfirst into the fascinating world of bone art, where bones become the storytellers of a person's life. And what they discovered was amazing.

Over the ages, the skeletons have adapted, sculpted to the needs of the owner's lifestyle. Take, for example, the huge skeletons unearthed on the remote Pacific island of Tinian in 1924 - nearby stone structures have revealed astonishing facts. By working with heavy rocks, the islanders inadvertently transformed their bones, which gave them powerful arms, legs and collarbones.

Now turn your gaze to the present, where Shahar and Sayers reveal a seismic shift in our skeleton landscape. Get ready for the shocking concept of External Occipital Prominence (EOP). Nicknamed the "moss ball" or "evil horn" by some, this bony growth at the back of the skull is no ordinary anomaly. It is connected to the cervical ligament, an important link between our neck muscles and the skull. Think of it as an anchor, controlling our postural stability.

Curious, the duo embarked on a daring quest. By meticulously examining X-rays by chiropractors of people between the ages of 18 and 86, they have managed to unlock the secrets hidden in our bones. What they discovered was dizzying. Young people, enamored in the digital realm, have amazingly lingering EOP rates. The tantalizing hypothesis emerged - hours spent poring over screens created a new reality. When the neck instinctively stretches forward, the delicate balance of our cervical ligaments shakes. The pressure mounts, unleashing a series of spectacular changes. Millimeter by millimeter, the EOP gradually expanded, reaching unprecedented lengths. This was the birth of the "archaic writing", a curious phenomenon that primarily marked the male population.

But what could this radical transformation mean for humanity? We've long pondered the effects of cell phone radiation, its elusive link to cancer, and its potentially dangerous effects on our bodies. However, this groundbreaking report disrupts the status quo, pushing us into uncharted territory. Shahar and Sayers describe prolonged EOP as a terrifying degenerative process, alluding to a grim fate for the next generation if they remain stuck in their digital addiction. And that's not all - be prepared for the dreaded notion of "texting thumbs" or thumb arthritis, where the very digit that fuels our tech addiction begins to deteriorate, reflects the dreaded carpal tunnel syndrome.

Critics may dismiss these claims as mere fables. Archaeologists argue that elongated skulls, especially in men, are not new. Deniers say the report lacks concrete evidence to support the chilling idea that constant cell phone use turns humans into otherworldly creatures.

So the question remains:

Are Shahar and Sayers doing something big or are they just taking established facts and adapting them to their own interpretation? Either way, there's no denying the profound impact technology has on our lives. The idea that future generations may experience change due to constant interaction with electronic devices is a serious matter that needs careful attention. Ultimately, it will be future archaeologists who will determine the validity of these claims. Who knows, they might not find individuals with spikes protruding from the back of their necks. So maybe we should consider spending more time outdoors and less time on digital distractions.
