Photic sneeze reflex

I always wondered why I sneezed when I walked into sunshine.

Seems  I'm one of the "18-35% of the population" who have the photic sneeze reflex, which is the "tendency to sneeze upon exposure to bright light".

Its nice to feel special, but its a good thing that I'm not a combat pilot.
