I can bend my arm back to have my elbow level with my face, stack coins on it, and flip my arm down quickly so I catch the coins with my hand.

I can do something like that with a water bottle but a stack of coins is amazing.

I don't know that I have any. I used to be able to bend my thumb back behind my hand, but I can't anymore.

Actually, I'm exceedingly good at the first Spyro game, and Alex Kidd in Miracle World on Sega Master System. I've beaten those games hundreds of times. Literally. So that's pretty useless.

If we're including video game stuff...

I can beat Chill Penguin from Mega Man X with the x-buster very easily, and every time I try. It is kinda time consuming though, because the x-buster doesn't do much damage on him.

Oh here's one, but I've since forgotten how to do it. :( One time maybe around 5 years ago or so I randomly and by accident figured out how to make my guitar sound like a cat meowing, like Duane on the one episode of Home Movies.

Although I guess I was doing it differently then Duane, because if memory serves, he used the sliding technique, while I used a pre-bend/release.

Anybody can do that, the real trick is to do it with $10 worth on your elbow and not drop any.

That first spyro game was my damn childhood. I need to play the remastered version. I got pretty good at it too. 

Tried to get more than 99 lives and it capped lol

i can stuff and seal envelopes really fast. this was not a natural talent. it's required years of practice.

give me a stack of forms and a stack of envelopes, and i can turn them into ready-to-mail items at a rate of about 3 seconds per. it's really quite impressive. turns out it's only useful when you're trying to get several items ready for the mail. so maybe like, once or twice a year. unless your job requires you to stuff lots of envelopes, like mine does, this is a really bad talent to spend your time perfecting.
