Try humming while pinching your nose completely shut. Most people discover that they can't produce the same humming sound. Humming depends on air vibrating through your nasal passages.

Blocking the airflow changes how the sound is created. It's a simple experiment that surprises many people. Sometimes the easiest facts are the most entertaining.
