The text claims it's impossible to hum while holding your nose due to the inability of air to escape through the nose.

The claim that it's impossible to hum while holding your nose is largely supported by several web sources. The consensus is that while the vocal cords can vibrate, the absence of airflow and resonance in the nasal cavity prevents proper humming. Three independent sources, including a medium-reliability TikTok video and articles from fun fact compilations, corroborate this assertion.
