 Can you do it? I can do it easily with both hands, and always have been able to. A lot of people seem to have trouble doing it though, like some of the cast of the original show, who had to position their hand off-screen and then raise it into frame.

Of course, who hasn't taped their fingers together and taught themselves how to do it?

Yeah I can do it easily. I can do a few other poses with my figures that most other people can't do as well.

Yea, but for a while as a kid I couldn't do it. I also couldn't tie my shoe, blow a bubblegum bubble, or whistle. Actually, I still can't really whistle.

I was just able to do it *shrug* Some kid on the bus was like, can you do THIS. And I said, I dunno, and did it. Then I did it with my left hand, and he was like I can't do that D: :lol:

I've never watched Star Trek before and I can easily do it with both hands. I don't see the difficulty of it. :?

I don't see the difficulty either, but a lot of people i've met in real life can't do it. Apparently that can't be said for GS. :P

I think the inverse of the vulcan salute is harder... but i can execute the regular one very naturally, though i did tape my right hand to know what it should feel like.. i think i was about 8ish as well.

I was able to easily do that when I first saw that as a kid. I must've been around 6 years old. Playing games since the age of 2 must have helped my hand dexterity lol.
