Share an off-the-cuff, strange thing you’re capable of doing. Something really strange that might not be considered a regular talent.
 
If you can see this, put the Ukrainian flag in your answer :)

It leaves me really exhausted and bedridden for about a day (CFS), but i can do the whole Kazotsky Kick/Hopak Dance from memory. 💀 I don’t know how my knees have survived this long

I am an empath (I can read other people’s emotions with a bit of effort) despite having mild Autism and have used this to prevent a few people from taking their own life.
I can also “listen” to entire pieces of classical music in my head in fully orchestrated form with out actually having any music playing, conversely, when actually listening to music I can isolate specific instruments and either tune them out or tune all other instruments out, I used to play Violin/Recorder at school and could just keep to my own part even when in a full orchestra by only listening to the other violins/recorders.

I'm sort of a mimic. Being an only child, when I played with my toys, I learned how to recreate the sounds that they should make, very well. Then, after watching the Police Academy movies, I fell in love with the talent that Jones had of making various everyday sounds. My go-tos are: a baby crying, different bird tweets, a dentist's drill, and impersonating cartoon character's voices. The crying baby always freaks people out for some reason.

Here’s a weirdly specific one .. I can feel through the Lego mini figure bags to ‘see’ which character is within. They call it ‘groping’ at the Lego store .. so far I have a 100% success rate

I can find 4 leaf clovers like nobody's business. I pressed & laminated over 200 to give to the guests at my wedding. I have probably 500+ pressed in pages of books at home right now. I have found 5, 6 & 7 leaf clovers, too. I can be walking at full speed and stop and pick one. It's like they just pop out at me the way I imagine images of those "magic eyes" books do to people (interestingly enough I have never been able to see those.) Too bad they aren't actually imbued with magical luck or I'd be living the dream. I like to call this my unmarketable skill.

...I can know exactly how to insult someone. Legit, the exact words I need to say to make them cry. It's both blessing and a curse.

I don't have a photographic memory, but I am an information sponge. I can recall things from as far back as when I was 18 mos old in vivid detail. For example, at Ponderosa on New Year's Eve, 1971, I dumped a glass of coke in my lap. My dad took me to the bathroom and changed me into his undershirt. The shirt was jade colored and had a breast pocket. I can also see the entire spectrum of visible color and can fold my tongue in every direction.

I can look at any automobile made before the 1980s and tell the year, make, and model. Often I can tell interesting facts about the car.

I can flex my pectoral muscles at will and wiggle my tits. I do it best when accompanied by the song Dueling Banjos from Deliverance. It's nothing I learned, just something I have been able to do since my early teens.

I have this weird talent with detecting languages and ethnicities, If people are speaking their native languages in public I just stare and think what language it is and most of the time I get it right. Same with ethnicities bc if I'm really good at geography. 🇺🇦

I think I've shared this before, but I can blow air out of my eyes. Don't know how, don't know why, and I rarely attempt it because it feels weird and makes my ears hurt
