Fall asleep on headphones?

I have a friend that says he falls asleep
Listening to music on headphones and I think he is from another planet.

Only when I'm sleeping with someone who snored aggressively

I fall asleep every night with an airpod in one ear. I have a problem stopping my mind from racing, so I have found that a boring documentary or podcast that I have enough interest in to pay attention to will put me to sleep within about 20 minutes. David Attenborough can be good, but sometimes an animal will screech or howl or make some noise during sex that will pierce the calm. The best is the podcast series about the American revolution.

A while back there was a story about a girl who fell asleep with her airpods in and swallowed one of them in her sleep.

Did she poo poo it out?

There was a time that I slept in a very loud place with minimal resources. I made ear plugs out of plastic wrap and balls of paper. They worked beautifully as noise cancelling headphones.

I used to fall asleep like that alot as a teen.

I had to use headphones, or all my music would've been confiscated and destroyed. Which made 14 year old me more passionate about black metal. So now I actually fall asleep easier when I do this nowadays.

I sleep with my left airpod in every single night. It falls out while I sleep.

Amazon has some <$20 Chinese things called cozy something or another headband earbuds.

I don't even like sleeping with a watch but for some reason I can sleep with these. Put on some binaural beats white noise (fan noise) and I'm gone. Good for blocking out the screaming kids on the rare occasion I don't get up with them.

I remedied this by acquiring a bluetooth face mask. One of my best purchases ever.
