"Citation needed" edit
Why is there a citation needed thing on the part that says the head doesn't typically explode? 49.147.190.8 (talk) 04:02, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- It's clearly a joke, but please don't ever change it. 50.72.9.214 (talk) 06:27, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
in culture edit
? worth a section of the syndrome in culture following the movie "memoria" by apichatpong weerasethakul, if there are other cases to go with this one — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.159.211.31 (talk) 13:28, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Psychological in nature edit
"The cause of the phenomenon is psychological in nature".
If the cause is unknown, how is this statement factual? Am I missing something? For many diseases, stress is a compounding factor, but in this case, without solid evidence, I suggest we remove this hypothesis. Enigma55 (talk) 02:01, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
We have to drop the conspiratorial section edit
I just deleted the section referencing conspiratorial "energy weapons" as a possible cause of EHS. Source [2] places the first recorded case of EHS to the 19th century, so this entire conspiracy speculation is not only distracting, but potentially harmful. BlueToriel (talk) 13:52, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
