And so they vibrate that and send it out. Small-toothed whales also have air sacks; they're all over their heads, so it's like they're airheads. They use this to capture as much air as they can to take down with them when they're diving, because when you dive, pressures increase, and that decreases the volume of air you have available. But more importantly,

John Cena
American Actor
You often hear when you talk to guys in our industry, that this is my personality, I just turn the volume up, but over the years, I've really become me. No volume turned up, no nothing. I've been able to go out there and just be myself. It's through solid performance after solid performance that people just take you for who you are.
