Squirting water into ears has come up on LW before in connection with anosognosia, e.g. The Apologist and the Revolutionary. So this is at least somewhat consistent with my model of reality.
No, it’s not that bad. But it does give you genuine vertigo—I was surprised when I did it that it wasn’t just a little vertigo but closer to roller coaster vertigo. Apparently shocking your inner ear really does stuff!

Indeed anosognosia is mentioned multiple times in the paper, perhaps serving as the motivation.
