Pour a little rubbing alcohol in each ear. It will displace the water and help prevent infections.

Stand up and bend your head so one your ears are vertical (one facing the sky and one facing the ground). The ear facing the ground should be the one with water in it. Then, jump many times quickly. The force of the jumping should get the water out. If the water is really in there, it might not come out. The solution to this is get a Q-tip and put hydrogen peroxide on it and swab the ears so the water won't infect your ears.

Tilt your head to the side where your ear had water (the ear pointing to the ground) and start jumping hard.
The water will come off just like that. I have tried and seen many doing it as well. Just be careful not to slip and fall while you jump.

Q-tip works best.. or if you are at home turn on your hairdryer and point it at your ear for about 5 to 10 minutes... don't have it on too hot though! The warm air will dry up the water. This is good for when you swim alot to avoid infected ears.

Good Ole Rubbing Alcohol... Drop a few drops in the ear and let sit for a few seconds then drain your ear on a towel...
There is a product called Swim Ear but don't waste your money because all it is is Rubbing Alcohol..

tilt your head so that the ear that has water in is facing up. drop a couple of water drops with your finger into your ear. the moment the water from your finger enters your ear turn your head the other way so that the water filled ear is now facing down.. you will then feel water leaving your ear.. if after tilting your head the water doesn't leave your ear, then repeat the process of dropping water into that ear and quickly tilting your head.

I put hyrdogen peroxide in the ear that has water, let it sit for a while then lay my head down so the water can drain. Works pretty good.
Note: I just saw someone wrote "put rubbing alcohol in your ear". DON'T DO THIS. Dab a little near your ear and you will see that it burns.

while your still in the water, slowly dip your head in the water, side-ways (water-ear side down). leave it in there for a couple seconds and then pull it out. the water will stay in the pool water!

let's say it's your right ear that has water in it:
pull on right ear with your hand and tilt you head right. then hold up your left leg and jump on your right foot. 6-7 times usually does it.
