Things You'll Need. Feel the temperature on the inside of your refrigerator, and then check your food items to see if they are cooling properly. Also check the temperature inside your freezer compartment. Verify with a meat thermometer that the thermostat is set to the proper temperature for cooling food items.
Explanation: Armchair medical science maintains that the involuntary respiratory convulsion known as a sneeze launches mucus from the body at 100 miles per hour, landing it 30 feet from the source.
Make that way less than 100 mph. Adam's achoo erupted at 35 mph, and Jamie barely beat him at 39 mph. As for whether a sneeze can go the distance, neither MythBuster could break the 20-foot mark. Instead, Adam's and Jamie's flying phlegm landed 17 and 13 feet away, respectively. So while sneezes still spew snot fast and far, the busted myth proves their much-advertised speed and distance stats are full of hot air.
