Hitch hikers thumb

The other day in class we were discussing this and mine was by far the most extreme. anyone care to challenge.



Talk about other genetic traits to if you like.

I don't have a banana thumb. Mine has a proud posture. I don't have any disjointed parts or disproportionate bits so I'm genetically perfect.

Well, I'm blind in one eye, mostly deaf, and my right ear looks like an elf ear (Think Legolas' ear, not Link's) while my left looks like a normal human ear.

Mine bends pretty much as far back as yours. Jodd's barely bends back at all. He thinks my thumb is weird.

Mine bends back slightly. Not nearly as much as the thumb pictured.

You need to clip your nails.

mine bends back pretty far
likealmost a 90 degree angle

Guess I'm not that cool.

But look how much I can bend it forward!



(I can seriously not go further than that, it's really fun.)

You should clean your room!

Well hm.
My fingers are average. The only genetic disease I have / had is an idiopathic scoliosis, but it'll be two years in November that I had a surgery, so it's not a big deal nowadays. :'>

HOLY SHI-

Your room is messy!

I can bend my ring fingers back pretty far, though I'm not sure if that's genetic.

Though I do have a Widow's Peak. (That's what its called right? For males?)

♥♥♥♥ me.

Can you guys see that Yoshi creeping from behind that washing basket? He looks neglected. You have a lot to answer for, bendy thumb.

Without context, this is

But as for me, I don't know of any genetic things I have. I'm not double jointed and I think I'm pretty average.

I don't know if this is anything remarkable but I can do this with my middle finger (on both hands):

Spoiler:  

not the best picture but it's good enough haha

The bone locks into place and can stay there until I move it. Weird to describe. It creeps out my mom any time I do it in front of her

I can fold my hand together backwards too.
Like, bend all my fingers back the other way until it touches the back of my hand. It kind of hurts, and I haven't done it in a while, so it'd hurt even more. So I didn't take a picture of it.

I can do that. It hurts like hell though.
I don't think it should hurt. I must be doing it wrong.

I have double jointed thumbs





I am super jealous of all the hitch hiker ones though. They really help play guitar and bass because it shortens the length of your palm from the neck of the guitar, meaning you have greater reach with less movement.

That isn't normal nail size? That's odd, because my nails are about the same length.

Well there's this wierd thing I do with my hands and knuckles where they move over the bone... It happens everytime I make a hard fist on only left hand and I can manipulate the ones on my fore and middle finger to move back and forth. Here's a video of it



Not to mention I can move them to the beat of any song I want

Thank you thats what i thought,

as for my room being messy, i share it with m sister and the only item of mine is the yoshi that you can see on the ground.

As for playing instruments, i never really thought about it because I am not musical.

wheatly: that looks really weird

I have the same thumbs as Azrael black. I can stick them out at a right angle and the thumb can't backwards without breaking.
