Do you have any impressive but completely useless talents?

Do you have any impressive talents that are also completely useless?

I'm 6'1 and 230 pounds, but I've never come across anyone who can crawl as fast as I can. And when I say fast, I mean that I crawl about twice as fast as the next fastest crawler I've ever met.

I'm not sure if this is the reason for it, but I was reading a scientific article awhile back that was discussing the physiological remnants of human evolution. Apparently a small percentage of all humans (less than 1%) are born with a set of muscles in their chest that would only be useful if humans still crawled around on all fours.

It's my gift, but it's also my curse.

I can do a forward crabwalk incredibly fast. Faster than people doing a regular crabwalk (back to the goal). :P As fast as a slow-medium speed person can run, if it helps you imagine it.

Im really good at Rock Band

I can rotate my feet in the opposite direction.

I can put my whole fist in my mouth

Okay, well you know that small area between the "top" of your neck/throat and your chin...I can move the muscles there so much that it looks like I'm a frog...:P

Sorry for the crappy description.

So you're more monkey than most people?:P

I can solve the unsolvable computer problem P v. NP in less than a second.

I can solve a Rubik's cube in 30 seconds! :o

I am an excellent debater in person. I doubt my impression is the same here on GameSpot, as I am not able to write as well as I can speak. Nor can I type quickly by any measure. I don't think that it is a very useful talent though.

Wicked armpit farts. I mean... they pwn.

A woman that can finish a family sized pizza and not have the build for such eating - is my kind of woman.clayron

Give me the torque bow on Gears or the spartan laser on Halo, and I am God.

I can eat 10 fried shelled tacos easily.

Idk?

I can make a high pitch sound.

Hmm. Well I can bench press a lot. It's nice and all being strong but really the only practical use I'll get out of this talent is if a really heavy, symmetrical tree branch with even weight distribution falls on my chest and I need to lift it off.

I can snap without using my thumbs. No really I can. Its awesome, I freak people out with it all the time. I have pretty long thin fingers, so that might have something to do with it other than that cant really explain how I can do it

I can climb and do a few things on aerial fabric... That's pretty useless, unless I have to work in a circus to make a living.

I can scream pretty damn loud - like reaaaaallly loud. I guess it could be useful in a dire situationbut I haven't really had to utilize that talent that much:P

Of course I do. :P I had no idea that some people didn't. :cry:

I was one of the best players in deathmatch mode ever in Resistance 2 when I played it (pre Killzone 2). But since it was in Resistance 2, I guess some would say it was useless :P

I can turn off my emotions like a switch and back on again.

...Ummm, video game talent? :P

Actually, it was at a party that I met the teacher and took interest in it, but I'm not that good.

I'm literally a fast learner. Just looking what the man does I can be better than him. But it's useless for me because I never use my learned talents. I'm a laid back.

i can regurgitate stuff. not just food, i can do the coin and salt thing. took a lot of practice, but i pwn at parties.

I can reverse my elbows, as well as completely rotate both arms.

Sidenote: all these things seem like stuff that would be foreshadowed in a movie as being useless, but end up saving the day.

I can withstand temperatures that would make people go like "holy crap it's freezing and such." Can't withstand anything below -20, though.

I also run quite fast compared to the other people I hung out with.

I can keep my mouth shut when I don't have anything to say. Nobody seems to care. But then, nobody seems to care when someone talks anyway.

I consider myself quite good at Tricking. (Sort of gymnastics/martial arts, a bunch of cool kicks and flips basically) I can't do it at school though because teachers say it is dangerous and irresponsible (nearly got suspended for proving to someone I could do a frontflip).

I am always the best at juggling out of anyone at parties.

I can solve a Rubik's cube in 30 seconds! :o

I'm really good at guitar hero.. and I can go down stairs really fast!
