Uh.... am I hypermobile?

...being able to hold your leg behind your head while standing isn't normal either?

...or being able to do a ninety degree side kick?

...or touching the top of your head with your foot (I could probably do behind head with six month's daily practice)?

What next, are you going to tell me people don't sit in the lotus pose for fun?

If you are doing things professional ballet dancers do, that's several standard deviations away from what the average person can do lol

You're telling me I'm stretchy enough that I could've been a professional dancer and I'm sitting around a lab all day? LMAO Not that I would ever want to be a ballet dancer BUT I COULD.

I think I gotta talk to the doctor about this one. I had connective tissue disorder autoantibodies that might actually mean something, and "out of place vertebrae" is one side effect of hypermobility.

Perhaps stretchy enough to play unsettling creatures in horror movies!
