Is it normal that the sun makes me sneeze?

Since I was a kid I would look up directly at the sun and sneeze. I know that the suns rays are not good for your eyes but it's not something that I do often. Everytime I do it, never fails, I sneeze! Does anyone else?

    i love sneezing. so whenever i want to sneeze, i look at the sun. other lights work too, in fact i think it may just have something to do with tilting the head back.

    About 25% of people have a genetic quirk where the optical "wires" touch your nose wires. When your optical wires are overstimulated it tickles your nose wires and you sneeze!

    Very, very normal. It happens more with small children, and babies, but it happens to me all the time. There is some cool scientific reason behind it, but I can't remember it right now. Google it :)
