No, headphones can’t dent your head. A study reports that it takes at least 135 Kg to cause a minor fracture to the skull. It’s safe to assume the clamping force of your headphones won’t cause any harm. However, there have been viral posts on Reddit every so often that make fun of streamers’ ‘head dent’ after wearing them for hours. One of the most well-known cases is Tyler1’s head dent. When this League of Legends streamer took off his headphones, a crease on his head was visible on camera. Mizkif’s headset dent is another similar clip. He had the same headband crease happen to him after streaming for a few hours. Another streamer, curtosslive, recently found out he has a headphone dent while shaving his head for charity. This sparked new discussions on the topic, with people sharing their own experiences and fears, especially when PopTingz featured him in a tweet.
