  • Seriously, this is how I travel. After trying about every travel pillow on the market, I still can't find anything that is actually tall enough to support my neck, except this.
    I look absolutely ridiculous on the plane, but I sleep....OK.
    Making myself look like an idiot on UA-cam because I couldn't find this video for myself whilst repeatedly Googling 'tall person travel pillow solutions' for the past decade+.

    It seems silly but this the type of genuinely helpful information the internet is great at. Thank you sir!

    Been using the cheap $15 flat storing brace for a few years now. Probably not as comfortable as the Aspen. Neck braces are the best for sleeping on an airplane and let you actually relax. Family laughs but it’s better than the open mouth sleeping. Good job getting the word out!

    Awesome idea! Thought of just bringing straps for the airplane pillow. Love it man. Being tall sucks on planes

    As a fellow long-necked, taller gentleman, I've been using those cheaper soft neck braces to fly for over a decade now as no "travel pillow" even remotely works for me... it's not perfect, but nothing seemingly ever will be. I love this idea though, seems it a bit on bulky side for me personally, but I'm sure it works great if you don't mind looking like a lunatic as you say lol.

    Been using a soft collar for 15 years, but will try this one as it does feel like it chokes your a bit. Thanks!

    An absolutely brilliant solution! Dutch men everywhere will hear about your findings.
    But seriously, thanks for sharing. Looking foolish is the least of my worries when flying.

    Thank you for this. My shoulders usually match the top of the chair. My knees are jammed into the seat in front of me so i can't scoot forward to lower my head. I fall asleep with my neck at a 90 and wake up from the pain. If i take my size 13 shoes off there is sometimes room for me to stuff my legs under the seat ahead of me to get my butt an inch or two forward to lower my head closer to the seat top. Who designs these planes? There's no room anymore for anyone of height. I am ordering a brace to see how it works on my next flight.

    This might be the answer for me, my biggest issue with trying to sleep on planes is my head just falls forward - both jerking me awake and causing a bit of neck pain. Have you also looked into / considered the foam neck braces? May work similarly well without making it look quite as much like you have a spinal injury!
    Thanks for the video mate.

    • @brokenalarms
      @brokenalarms  Рік тому +1

      The regular and "tall" versions of those ones I see advertised have 3" versus 3.5"... My neck is 7" long so I suspect I'm going to be disappointed, even if the foam is firm enough (unlikely).... But let me know if you see anything that might work!

    Do you wear the brace while driving too?

    • @brokenalarms
      @brokenalarms  Рік тому +3

      No, it's just an issue when I fall asleep, hopefully not whilst driving 🙂

      He said in his previous neck pillow review video that he was 6'5.

    Incorrect. Ineffective! The sole means to sleep is through extreme fatigue or premium seating options like economy premium, exit seats, first or business class. These pillows and neck holders are utterly ineffective!
    Wasted $65!
