[quote]I can curl my tongue[/quote]

I can do that, too. :) I can flip it in various directions, including curling it to look like a clover leaf.

[quote]There is a guy at the Newman Center who can wrap his right arm around his head, under his chin, and touch his right ear... [/quote]

Crud... I can ALMOST do that! I can touch the "corner" of my jawbone when I try (both sides), just a couple inches off from my ear...

[quote]And when I straighten my fingers out, they end up about 15 degrees further than other people's fingers can normally.[/quote]

My fingers lean back... whats "normal"?

[quote]Yes I belly dance thank you very much Micah lol I am also a ballerina why do people always get so shocked by that lol I'm started to feel insulted!!!![/quote]

I wish I could do that... I'm a pretty good dancer, but I don't think I'm quite THAT good. lol

[quote]I used reach behind my back with both arms and grab my elbows. That is: one arm goes up, so your elbow is by your ear, the other elbow is pointed down by your waist. Starting from that position, I used to be able to grab my elbows. Alas, its a talent that I wasted. I just tried and could only grab my wrists.[/quote]

I can clasp my hands when doing that... My sister can "hug" herself and grab her wrists behind her back.

My husband can flap his ears... not just wiggle them but FLAP them. Like an elephant (ok, he can't really extend them forward, but he'll press them back against his head and then let them go back to normal in rapid succession and it looks like they are flapping). You're not supposed to be able to do that because of how the nerves in your ears are, but he can.

I can tie cherry stems with my tongue...

I can't think of anything else that I can do thats all that special and weird...

I can give birth to a baby in under four hours...

Well, I can when I actually have to... can't just do it any ol' time...

Also, while not a talent, I have had ten broken bones and no casts... :)
