I can lick my elbow. Not that it's super awesome or anything but I keep seeing it in random trivia all over the place that it's physically impossible, but clearly it isn't.

For a lot of people it is.

I think in one of my gym classes, the teacher mentioned that it was impossible to do. Out of twenty-some people, I was the only one that could do it.

I forgot to mention that I can click with my tongue. I think a lot of people can do this, but then again a lot of them just can't. I can't snap my fingers though. I'm not sure why. I probably just never learned the technique.

I can click, crack or otherwise grind EVERY joint in my body. LITERALLY.
When I wake up in the morning, I twist my torso and my spine clicks. Then i pull my arms behind me and push my chest out, causing my chest to click. If I overstraighten my elbows, they click. If I sit down for ages, my knees and ankles click when I get up. I can crack my neck 3 or 4 times in each direction by twisting it. All my fingers crack at all 3 joints... I could go on for some time, but I think you get the idea.

We can rebuild him, we have the technology.....

In all seriousness, I get that a lot, especially at the gym. My elbows and wrists crackle like it's the first of July.

I am gifted with what is called by many names, like "the Voice of the Emperor," "Bat out of Hell," and "Cry of the Banshee." Basically, I can make you deaf just by letting out all the air in my lungs, and yes, it really is that loud.

I can hip-swirl. If you've ever seen Hiroki Aiba dance, you know what I'm talking about. I can do a lot of other girly movements, too. It seems to freak out most guys and gets fangirls to start squealing.

I can twist my arms all the way around. It's a fun way to gross people out.

I can bend over backwards pretty easily. It's great for when you wanna suplex somebody, but when am I gonna get that chance?

I have this evil-eye trick that warns people of ill omen whenever they look into them. Recently, I looked at myself in the mirror and sensed death. A couple weeks later, this guy that I talked to once died.

I have another evil-eye trick where one of my eyes will start vibrating like crazy in its socket, go out of focus, and then just lock onto something.

I have a long tongue that can reach my nose, although not the tip just yet. I'm getting close, though.

I can jam my elbows into my back near my spine.

I can fake-cry like a girl, le gasp.

I can create vector traps, which compresses space.

I can create strong convection currents in the air.

My hair is sharp enough to pierce skin, no joke.

My voice changes periodically for some reason.

Yeppers; I just did.

I just cracked a total of 26 knuckles on both hands; I managed to crack 8 of my knuckles closest to the tips of my fingers. I can't crack them continuously like some people, though. I can only do that with my toes.

Or, if you're this one cracked up math teacher who doesn't really know what he's talking about, it would be "nullity".

I can move my jaw around to different positions and it'll hold in place. It's actualy the product of some growth defect that occured and I'm gonna have to have surgery to get it fixed. But for now it's funny to pop and lock my jaw in different places and watch people cringe.

Probably out eating some dirt or something.
I can do the finger thing, my fingers are so messed up.

Try this, lay down on your back and twist your legs 180 degress. Then put your arms together and but your elbows at your waist, then reach up underneath you and touch the back of your head.

Oh. I'm pretty sure it's also the name of two very different sexual techniques involving...well...I'm glad that you were talking about another meaning.
