This is the hilarious moment a Chinese woman with a hoarse voice spoke normally when she tilted her head.

The homeowner woke up to find her voice sounding like a honking goose in Shanghai, China, on May 24.

Footage shows the woman turning her head to the right and left, causing her voice to be husky, but when she looks straight, her voice returns to normal.

A doctor speculated that the cause of her hoarse voice might be an issue with the recurrent laryngeal nerve or the cricoarytenoid joint, leading to poor adduction of one vocal cord.

When her neck turns to a certain angle, the affected vocal cord is pushed into a better position, improving the closure of the glottis and consequently the sound quality.

Her voice has now mostly returned to normal days later.
