That's neat.

It makes me wonder if your hearing is better than average or if your eyes are worse, making it not so clear-cut.

Do you need glasses, or have you ever had your hearing tested for whatever reason?

I don't need glasses. Haven't had my hearing tested, but I think it might be better than average. I can hear high frequencies annoyingly well, 20kHz or a little more (checked with a spectrum analyzer). It's fun to listen to the high harmonics in music. Vacuum cleaners and electric cars are less fun.

I can usually hear my muscles and bones moving. It's very quiet and low frequency, and the muscles rumble. I can usually tune it out though.
