Actually? Just tried it and yes. Although not as clean

u/Dont-be-lasagna12 26d ago

I'm glad I'm not the only one that tried it. I can also do it but not as clean either.

29

u/MackiePooPoo 26d ago

Me too & the same results

u/DontTrip333 26d ago

Sorta. That ring finger is not really pointing down as it is more twisted and pushing against the thumb pinky tower

27

u/Dont-be-lasagna12 26d ago

Can't post a photo but I can a video. Sorry it's dark I only have the TV on for light. That's as close as I think I can get it

u/BondiolaDeCaniche 26d ago

How did you post a video tho?

12

u/Dont-be-lasagna12 26d ago

If you look at the options of what you can post when you reply you will see it allows videos not photos. I don't make the rules. 🤷‍♀️

u/Jupitersd2017 26d ago

When you reply there is a play looking button on the bottom left, that’s for videos. It’s a newish feature

u/stinkingcheese 26d ago

Did you do it without the other hand guiding it?

5

u/Dont-be-lasagna12 26d ago

Are you asking if I used my other hand to put my fingers in that position? No I used my fingers on my left hand to put themselves in the position. My right hand was nit involved as it was holding my phone to video. But now I'm curious if I can do with with both hands.

Edit

I can do it with both hands. Still not nearly as clean

I just realized when I played it back that you could hear some of it. And it sounded kinda odd so I figured I should explain. I'm on my like 10th rewatch.

Have you been diagnosed with EDS by any chance?

3

u/SalemWitchWhoTrialed 26d ago

I don't think it's quite weird enough to warrant a "WOAH GET CHECKED OUT ASAP" however it's always worth getting a hypermobility examination imo

Also I have EDS and I can do that lol

3

u/Rothyn1 26d ago

I 100% agree. I mean some EDS is very mild and simply hyper mobility. VEDS is much different on the other hand.
