But it's fun! - Come here, doggy.

- I hope you're feeling special... - Oh, dear.
- ...because today, we're gonna be presenting you
with 10 things that sources say 97% of people can't do.
But we don't know if it's actually accurate.
This is a trend we've covered before, but we wanted to do another round
with different body tricks to see what percentage of you
actually can't do these things. And we also want our viewers at home
to leave comments of what they can and can't do, so we can really
get to the bottom of this. - I'm excited.
- Should definitely be interesting. I remember us doing it,
and I remember all the comments for sure.
It's fine. We're gonna see how this goes.
- (man) They're going now. Yes, there goes one of them.
- Wiggling the ears, yeah. I've seen this.
- (man) And now I can wiggle both... - Oh, no. (chuckles)
- (man) ...just like a dog. - Just like a dog.
I think I could do this. I just don't think it's that obvious.
- (man) I can even do it in time. ♪ Da, da, da, da, da, da ♪
- No, I can't do that. - (chuckles) I can't. Oh my gosh.
I remember being a kid and trying to do that.
- Ready? Let me see if I can do it.
I can't feel those muscles at all. - They moved a little bit.
Not to the point that that guy could,
but just like a little wiggle. - I can't do it without moving my jaw.
I'm cheating. - Oh, no. I'm just...
There it is. Wow! (claps)
- Actually, when I was younger, I could do this.
I should've prepared my ears more, but okay.
I feel so gross doing this. Oh my god.
- Some sources say that the ability to wiggle your ears may actually
be inherited, but it can also be learned through practice.
Either way, it is thought that only about 10%-20%
of people can actually do this. - I would agree with that.
Definitely not a part of that 10, so now I don't feel special.
- Ah!
I hate that. I hate that! - Oh, he's literally just bending
that finger, that part of his finger. - Oh, man. That looks so painful.
- I don't like this. I don't like this one bit.
- It looks like he's about to transform into a wolf or something,
like he's gonna, like (rasps). - The thumb thing was--
that's just making a trigger finger. But no, there's no way.
- Okay, if I had to take one finger...
(laughs) That's definitely a double-jointed thing.
- It doesn't... (sighs)
- Definitely not. I'm really trying to bend them that way,
but...
- I can't even hold that. I instantly pop my knuckle
right away the moment I let go. - The ability to do this
with your fingers is actually associated with something
called hypermobility, where you're able to move
your joints beyond the normal range, which is what allows you to bend
just that top knuckle. - Yup, nope.
I'm not very mobile in general. I can't move very far.
- So now, I want you to plug your nose.
- Like that?
- And now, try to hum.
- (clears throat) Hum.
- (muffled humming) - (muffled humming)
(laughs) I don't like that. - (muffled humming)
Okay, that kind of hurts. - (humming)
My mouth is filling with air. Is that a thing people can do?
- Most people are still able to produce noise while doing this,
but it's not the same tone as a normal hum.
And once the air fills your mouth, you won't be able to keep going.
- Yeah, it's kind of like the air just gets trapped in there,
and it's like, there goes the noise.
- Have you heard of a thing that people could blow air
out of their eye socket thing? My brother had-- he can go underwater
and plug his nose and his mouth and blow bubbles out of his eyes.
So, I wonder if he can still hum by passing air out of his eyes.
- (woman whistles) - I know for a fact
I can't do that. - No, I've always wanted to do that.
- That's the hardest ever. I can barely whistle on my own.
Like (whistles) I'm sorry. I woke up my dog.
- (woman whistles) - Can't do it.
- (blows air) - (blows air)
(laughs) - (blows air)
Oh my god. I think I gleeked. I totally just gleeked on my leg.
- (blows air) Yeah, I look like a fool.
But it's fun! - (blows air)
(laughs) Come here, doggy!
(blows air) (laughs)
Come here, doggy!
(blows air) (laughs)
- Is this photoshopped? 'Cause [censored] that.
- I think I can do that. I'm definitely not flexible,
but I can somewhat do it. But it does hurt.
All right. Here we go. - I have really long arms,
so I actual feel like I can do this.
- (laughs) No. Not even close. Ow!
- Oh! Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Did it! Ah-ha! For like two seconds.
The moment I pressed it down, everything just tightened up
right here. - Yup! I have very--
My hair's in the way, but I have very long arms,
so I can do things like this. - Ah! Dude!
Ohhh! [Censored] hell. I almost got it just then.
That hurt my body, though. - Am I doing it?
Yeah, not gonna lie, it did hurt. It did hurt a little bit.
But I'm also out of shape, so... - (boy) But it looks like this...
- (gasps) Oh, I already know what he's gonna do.
It's gonna go (vibrates) - Eyes scare me.
- (boy) Looks like that. Hope you all can see it.
That's what it looks like. It's kind of weird.
- Oh, ew. Yeah. I think I've seen people do this.
It looks like they're having a seizure or something.
It weirds me out. - I don't even know
where I would begin. Just... do I look fast with it?
(grunts) I'm gonna [censored] look as hard as I can.
- I feel like I'm going cross-eyed!
- I just-- ahh! - The best I can do is
to cross my eyes, but I can't do the--
I can't make 'em jiggle or vibrate like that.
- Am I doing it? I feel like a little kid
on camera right now. Like, "Mom, am I doing it?"
- According to sources, only 5%-8% of people
are able to do this. It's known as voluntary nystagmus,
or the ability to generate rapid movement of your eyeballs voluntarily.
- Interesting. I feel like I tried to focus,
and then my eyes just went like (squeaks)
- Voluntary nystagmus. That's a great name for a metal album.
♪ (upbeat music) ♪
- Wait, what? - Nope. Nope.
My brain is gonna be like, "Huh?" - That's the whole pat your head
and rub your tummy thing? So, I can do that,
but the rotating in opposite directions... no.
- See? Even I'm trying to do it, but my hands refuse to go
in opposite directions. So, I'm gonna start doing this,
then I'm gonna... (laughs) This is weird.
I feel like I'm broken. - I can go this way,
and I can go this way. I think I'm just rolling.
The second I move the other, it's like, nope.
- There you go. Got it. Easy. I give myself two points.
I say gotta hit right here, hit right there, hit right there,
and then hit right there, you know? So, I give myself some points to do.
- One, two, one, two, one, two.
10 years of dancing trained me for this.
- (man) Can you do this? - Yeah. Yeah, okay, I can do that.
- (man) Can you turn it completely upside down?
- Upside down? - (man) Let me show you how it's done.
- (laughs) Imagine going to the gym and seeing a guy do that.
- I know his wife's impressed, but ugh!
- I can do the taco tongue, right? - I can do the hmm-hmm,
but I can't... I turned my head upside down.
- I can go sideways.
- He kind of used his teeth to turn it.
That feels weird on the bottom of your tongue.
- This is literally what I look like when I have food stuck in my teeth.
Okay. Yeah, no. - (woman) Take your eyelashes...
- No. - (woman) ...and pull your eyes out.
- No, no. - (woman) And just...
- Ahhh! - Nope. Absolutely not.
- Okay. (gagging) - (woman) That's how it's done.
- That just brought back PTSD from elementary school.
- Even though it's disgusting, I have tried it.
I have tried it, and I can never.
It looks painful too. Whoa, wait.
I actually look crazy right now. Yeah, I-- no. There's no way.
- Ugh! No. I don't like touching my eyes like that.
Uh-uh, nope! (laughs) Not doing it.
- Take your eyelashes, pull out, blink, and pull up. Nope.
Oh, I don't like the way that feels! - First of all, I have these
fake lashes on. (chuckles) No, my eyes are like, "Uh-uh."
♪ (playful music) ♪
- Don't even like touching my eyes. That's why I'm so happy
that I don't have to use contacts or glasses.
I don't even like anything getting near my eyes.
- TikTok, of course. - Ugh!
- Oh. Is she double-jointed?
- That's like the double-jointed thing.
- Going this way and then going in?
- Ah, no! How am I supposed to do that?!
It's not a thing you can do!
- This feels like one of those cruel tricks
when you're elementary school. They're like, "I bet you can't
touch your elbows to your bellybutton,"
and you're like, "Boobs!"
- Nope. I can't do that. (chuckles) I can't. Nope.
- No. Yeah, no. This is as far as I can do.
My sister can do this one for sure.
- Yes, I'm double-jointed! If you look, it's bent, right?
When I was younger too, to impress my friends,
I would always play this trick. Like, I can break my arm
and then put it back together. I'm not even kidding.
People fell for this, because we were like eight-year-olds.
And then, I would pretend like I was dislocating my arm,
and then I would go like this, and then I'd put it back together.
And everyone would always be super impressed.
And I'm still proud of it to this day.
- Video is from a trend on TikTok called the Hypermobility Check,
where people show off hypermobility tricks
just like this one. - You know, it's funny,
because I'm 50. I'm one of those people
who discovered TikTok, but I'm just there for the comedy.
- Hypermobility check! Like, no.
- Finally, do you have a special skill that you think
97% of people can't do? - You know, just my--
you know, my little eyebrow dance like the door. It's over there.
You know? (laughs) - This one.
And then going back. - Touching my nose with my tongue.
- I do this thing all the time where I do triplets, right?
Except I do 'em stupid fast. You go tri-pl-et, tri-pl-et.
That's what it is. But then you do it stupid fast.
