I don't think we should be that skeptical. The guy tried it, and says it helped a lot and his ears are open, and several days later they still are open. This doesn't mean that it works all the time, or for anyone. But from his experience, it worked THIS TIME for HIM. I don't really think we can assume that by some weird coincidence, his ears magically got unclogged at the exact moment he used the ear candles totally through random chance. While history is full of tales of rank superstition which later got debunked, it also contains stories of valid treatments which caused conventional doctors to shout QUACK! QUACK! till they were later proven effective. For instance, acupuncture was considered mystical Chinese claptrap till people made films of surgeries done using acupuncture as the only anesthetic.
