cool useless talents

Post by crazydwarf »

Any of you guys have any wierd skills that you don't use that often but are fun to say you know how to do. I love stuff like that. So far here is my list of useless abilities

1 . I can get a tear on command
2. I can juggle ok
3. I know how to pick those master locks http://www.totse.com for a bunch of articles on that kind of stuff
4. I can hold my breath for 2 minutes underwater (sometimes I practice in class and just hold my breath for a minute when I'm bored)

You guys have any cool wierd stuff you can do, it be great if you could list wear you learned it also

Crazy dwarf,
Yo, you gotsta be careful with that holding your breath stuff man. Remember that every second you are not breathing, your brain is not receiving oxygen. Do you know why people get strokes? b/c the blood is not delivering oxygen to the brain, and thus, brain tssue dies. Everytime you hold your breath for that long, you may actually be losing brain cells/brain tissue and actually becoming stupider. Im serious man. Watch out.

actually jeremy, your brain cells won't begin "dying" until a good 8-10 minutes of ischemia. even before you approach this time limit, your body kicks in and you pass out, you 'reset' and resume breathing while unconscious. so you can hold your breath as long as you like...you're not going to die and neither are your brain cells. just wanted to add that =p

edit: forgot im on a new alias so i'll sign with my name

that's pretty cool, have you ever actually done it that would be awsome...

I'll try and check out more about this, I have heard it a little, but I've also heard that it doesn't really matter and that it's just a myth... Maybe it's just me but I think it would be the amazing to have the self control to hold your breath until you blacked out your right it's probably not that good for you though.
