I have long toes (my second toe is as long as my pinky finger), but I can barely flex them, let alone pick things up with them.

I can juggle, though. Not really strange, but, you know...




What are you talking about, that is amazing! You can juggle with your feet!!!

Strange talents? I can literally clap with one hand. ...that probably qualifies.

I always liked the paradox of being able to literally answer "what is the sound of one hand clapping?"

you'd have to see/hear it to believe it, but I'm serious.

ONE HAND CLAPPING! I wish I could do that, I tried futilely for like a minute after I read that

I have no talent. Strange, or otherwise.

I can hang from something (monkey bars, tree limb, whatever) by my feet. I invert my body and put my feet over the branch, monkey bar, or whatever and then lock me feet and hang by my feet. The object is positioned between my toes and instep and I hang there with my body laid out straight with head toward the ground.

Trick learned from childhood (Spiderman kind of thing).

Well, this may not be a talent, but I can run full speed at a wall and headbut it without much pain. And I can also skull a 3 litre chocolate milk. And I can smash beer bottles over my head too.

I am just a legend
