i can't but my daughter can and it's freaky looking! She can also raise one eyebrow ala John Belushi.

1. My toes are prehensile. |
|
They resemble fingers. But I have one pinky toe that doesn't bend at all. I can do the eyebrow thing, though.

3. People who can't raise one eyebrow sometimes get nutsy when |
|
they see someone who can. I don't know why, but there it is.
PS: I can wiggle my ears, too.

4. the raised eyebrow never fails to make laugh, now where'd she get |
|
that? I can't do it, my husband can't do it, maybe she's got a recessive gene or something?

7. I don't think anybody knows where it comes from. It's not genetic, |
|
like tongue-rolling.

8. I can do things with my fingers that defy physics |
|
Hold up your thumb with one hand and your index finger with the other. Switch repeatedly. Very few people can do this.
If you are one of the few, I have a more advanced challenge. Hold out your index finger and pinky with one hand, then hold out the other two fingers on the other hand. Switch the position repeatedly between hands.
I must be very talented because the eyebrow thing and the little tow stunt and wiggling my ears are easy things to do. Anyone hiring?

10. I can roll my tongue and pick up things with my toes |
|
but I haven't used my toes to pickup things in years and I can't move my pinky-toe by itself!
I also can't even hold out my two middle fingers together without a great effort -- the ring finger wants to be where the pinky goes! Hence I'm sitting here practicing flippin' myself off!
