Unusual talents

nina I can, but neither of my sisters could. It’s genetic, like being left handed or crossing your arms L overR or vice versa!

I can do the tongue thing, twist it up and touch my nose etc etc

My husband is good at your trick , GabriellaG54

I can still wrap my left leg behind my neck. A talent I don't tend to use often

And my youngest daughter can lick her elbow

Which is quite tricky

I can roll my tongue, touch my nose with it, spread my toes and wiggle my kneecaps. All the attractive traits. I’m not one to brag, but I’ve got a very impressive hitchhiker’s thumb as well.

Anybody else now lying in bed trying to lick their elbow? I think I’ll pass on the leg round the neck thing. The NHS has enough on at the moment.

I can roll my tongue - and all my DC can too, but DH can’t.

And spread my toes and hold a pencil between my big toe and the next and write legibly (but I’m definitely right footed).

I used to be able to pull my thumb back to touch my arm but I just checked and can’t do that anymore.

I’m just clumsy and read ArtySue’s post and thought “that’s me too”.
In fact my legs do similar, and all 4 limbs are constantly in conflict with door jambs and furniture - it’s a rare week I don’t have bruises somewhere.
