Don't injure yourself trying this one! Sure, you might be able to lick the side of it (even I can!) but unless you can either pop your arm out of socket or you've got a tongue like a rock-star, then you're not gonna get the very tippy-tip of your elbow.
I actually can pop my arm out of my socket.
I like to mess with people by telling them that "there is nothing sweeter thatn the taste of your own elbow".
I've actually seen someone without any of these things do it. She's not double jointed, can't pop her shoulder out of its socket, and she doesn't have a rock-star tongue. I dunno, I guess she's just freakishly proportioned just right for it O.o
Ummmmm... not true. I have no rock star tongue, yet I can do it. I can move any part of my face individually, bend my fingers backwards, double jointed fingers(yes all of them), I can pick stuff up with my feet like a hand, touch my nose with my tongue, curl my tongue, touch any part of my back and further, hear stuff that makes many people I meet stare in awe, pop my left shoulder out of socket and almost my right one and much much more... So no, no rock star tongue, but... yeah.............
I've dislocated my shoulder trying to lick my elbow, and eventually got it right, and my friend puts his elbow on something and pushes down then leans down and licks his elbow, so it is possible XD, just painful
I can lick mine without dislocating my arm because I have disproportionately short arms(not deformed or anything, just not in the usual range for my width of shoulders). I could actually kiss my elbow when I was younger and more flexible, so the fact that my nickname in college was Gene Simmons has no bearing.

you can lick your elbow, provided you have a long enough tongue. it's this same skill that allows you to lick your nose.

Eagle0600 at 8:15PM, April 13, 2008

Man, every time I hear about this I try it out, and I always fail. Why is it impossible?
Amelius at 11:22AM, Jan. 23, 2008
Mmm, that would make you an exception to the rule then eh? I regret posting this one because everyone gets mad at me for it!
