Special skills??

So, we were talking at work today about weird talents we have and we have a lively bunch of people on here, so I thought there would be some interesting answers….

I can spin my elbows around without moving my hands. Sounds strange, and it freaks people out when they see it, but I've met a few people that can do it. And I can kind of pop my shoulders out…..AND I can lick my nose :-) (You know y'all are trying to do it now…;-))

So how about you guys???

I’m double jointed and can bend the first knuckle on each of my fingers (one closest to fingernail) without bending the rest of my finger. None of my friends can do it but I’ve met a few people over the years who are the same. I can also move both my kneecaps around a fair bit, they don’t sit in place properly.

Leanne, I’m intrigued by your elbow thing…what do you mean you can spin them around??

MY special skill is that i dont have THE special skill.

Rolling ur tongue is Heredity and my enitre family (immediate and extended) can roll their tongue…

But i cannot.

no matter how hard i try. it just wont “roll”!

LOL the boy hates it when I do this.. I can stretch my big toe and my next toe so far apart that I can pick up and comfortably hold a tennis ball between them, I don’t know how weird that is but I think its pretty weird… lol

Kylie, it’s kinda hard to explain, but if you put your hands face down on a table and with your fingers pointing away from you, you then twist your elbow around so it’s flat….but without moving your hands!

And LOL Erin! That is most definitely weird! Have you ever turned down your 4 toes and just leave your big one up? It looks sooooooooooooo weird! I can stretch my little one out a fair way…..but nowhere NEAR enough to pick up a ball!

Leanne - I have the exact same “special skill” with my elbows - people squirm whenever I do it….I can also touch my tongue to my nose - spooky we have such similar “skills” lol

I can also put my foot behind my head and do the splits but I dont know if they are special skills or the pilates paying off….

I can name the song title, artist, album and year of nearly any 80s sonf, much to the annoyance of my friends.
I have an awesome sense of smell, and can smell the cigarette of the driver of the car in front of me…
