IS EAR CANDLING WORTH TRYING?

I've seen hundreds of ear candling articles on Google where they teach how ear candles can successfully remove ear wax from an ear canal. The problem, however, is that none of these articles (and in many cases, videos on YouTube) show before and after evidence of the said ear canal. So, I decided to give it a try. In this step-by-step guide, I'm going to X-ray (with science-based evidence) the practice of ear candling so you can see once and for all whether or not they actually remove ear wax from your ear.
You see, not a few people out there believe that when you light the end of a candle, the heat from the candle melts your ear wax and creates a suction effect to draw the wax out of your ear canal. The ear wax is then pulled into the candle. And then after you've burned the candle down to let's say...three to four inches away from its tip, you put out the fire and cut open the left-over portion of the candle. You'll see a huge glob of ear wax inside the candle.
Now, being as curious as the fabled cat, I decided to run an experiment to determine once-and-for-all whether this theory was a fact or just something spun out of nothing by people desperate to make money. Would you like to know what I found out?
