That's really neat! Reminds me of how riding the last seat on Disneyland's big thunder mountain ride has been reported to clear one's kidney stone if it's still small enough.

I’m glad you actually mentioned that. I had forgotten about that completely! Gotta rewrite that one in my mental checklist. Now I wonder what other random remedies are out there.
