Do Ear Candles Work to remove ear wax?

I once read somewhere that you should never stick anything smaller than your elbow into your ear. Sounds like good advice to me.

I came across this video on YouTube about ear candling. Not sure why anyone would think it was a good idea to stick a lit candle into their ear, let alone why they would think this technique had any hope of removing ear wax.

Leave ear wax removal to the professionals!!
