A short promotional video demonstrating a head-thumping technique that is claimed to relieve tinnitus. Covering the ears and tapping the back of the head is said to silence the ringing temporarily.
Tinnitus sufferers share it as a free trick that briefly stops the ringing, though not as a cure.

to add to my other comment: ▶ this video this trick helped me be in silence for the first time in decades. it was wonderful, to say the least
you can also try this exercise for very low risk temporary tinnitus suppression ▶ this video it works reliably well
I had tinnitus for a while, and tried a few things that didn't work but this thomping technique I found on reddit one day stops it, and I just do it every couple of days and it disappears for a while. Not permanent but whenever it bothers me now I just do this thumping and it disappears in a few seconds: ▶ this video
I've always had tinnitus since I was a child and just thought the world was like that. A trick popped up on Reddit to temporarily, and perhaps for some with regular application, cures it for a short time. ▶ this video Thump the back of your head like that with your ears covered well about 40 times and enjoy the silence.
There's a technique that has the potential to temporarily (around 1 minute) clear tinnitus. ▶ this video It's not much and doesn't seem to work for everyone, but if you've been suffering from tinnitus for years, one minute is better than nothing.
