So it's not just up and down, but sideways also.
They don't physically come apart, it's just really flexible, even from side to side.

I think that's were the myth comes from, it really does look like they unhinge, due to how flexible they are. But there is no scientific evidence things come unhooked, and it can be clearly illustrated how they open so wide and still stay connected by looking at their skulls (look at the diagrams)
