This is probably off topic and possibly in the wrong forum(but I hope not), anyway. I'm not a real diver, have done a few introductory dives but, I have exostosis, or bony growths in my ear canals. These make it difficult to equalise especially while snorkelling. I am going to Thailand to go rock climbing soon, and plan to try Deep water soloing. This is a very silly pursuit where you climb out of the ocean on overhanging rocks, then fall back in when it all gets too hard. I hope this link works.

I the past I have found I get pain in my ears for a few hours after falling into the water from height. I am contemplating wearing ear plugs to try to prevent this. The idea is to fall in from maybe 10 meters (30 feet) and come straight back up. My brother, who is a douche bag, thinks my head will explode, as you would expect if I scuba dived with ear plugs.
What do you think?
ps - I don't really want to know how I can manage this for scuba/snorkelling/world record free dives. Just fall in, get out, repeat
