Can you close your nose without holding it ? i.e. block it without using your fingers or doing anything other than just...blocking it, so that you can't smell through it, breath through it etc. The same sort of action as swallowing or breathing, that you can't describe - you just DO it.
My whole family can do it as well as a couple of friends (that I know of) and I always thought everyone could until someone looked at me like I was talking craaaazy when I mentioned it somehow.
My boyfriend also thinks I'm loopy, so I said I'd do a survey.
Can most people do it or not?

No, it's not just holding your breath - you can still breath through your mouth. And it definitely doesn't hurt!

Yes! Once a 'sweaty' friend of my partner joined us in a restaurant, and my partner warned me before hand that he stunk! I sat their for almost an hour, blocking my nose.(Lucky we had already ate). Afterwards I told my partner I did not smell him once, he was really fascinated to know how I could do that! My sister can do it to. I think it's to do with sinus issues!?
