When you sneeze, it takes all of the strength of your diaphragm. It is one of the only times when the full strength of the diaphragm is actually used. It also requires support from your abdominal muscles and perenial muscles, which help to give the diaphragm support and "leverage" for lack of a better word. A sneeze usually comes out around 100 miles an hour. This takes an enormous amount of strength. This can cause the muscles in your perineum to ache afterwards, especially if you have just had an orgasm or done anything else that uses those muscles. Try kegel excersizes to prevent this by strengthening these muscles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kegel_exercises Wikipedia page on sneezing (be sure to check the discussion page):

Muscles contract when you sneeze. Aching muscle are one of the symptoms of a cold or flu so the extra strain on those muscles will cause them to ache more.

Why do you never sneeze just one time?

Some people only sneeze once. Like me but my sneeze is a scream. I sneeze from my throat so that is probably why I only sneeze once. When you sneeze it is normally because your nasal passages are filled with mucus and your body is trying to remove it. When you sneeze multiple times it is just a reaction. Have you noticed if someone tickles your nose or you look at the sun you sneeze? After one sneeze some people have that tickle feeling so they sneeze repeatedly.

Are you dead when you sneeze?

No, but an old wives' tale has it that when you sneeze, your soul leaves your body for the duration of the sneeze (so, without a soul, you are "dead" for that moment).
