Philosophy / Six fingers

Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 20:18:46
All of us (or many) know that there is people with six hand fingers. I have seen a videos that all of six fingers work properly. Imagine if one of them started pen spinning. At begining it would be strange for us (unusual) but when the person would get to 'pro level'. I think it would be awsome! He could do many things that we can't.
Waiting for your opinion>

are you sure those people can control the 6th finger as good as the other fingers? i thought its just stuck there and they cant move it separately. if thats the chase, its just an hindrance
-
Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 20:46:19
I know this guy who has a 6th finger, but he can't move it. It's like... a finger stuck on top of another finger.

There was TV show at TV where they show many strange and unsual things. There was one guy who had six fingers and he's 6th finger were doing great. At some video at metacafe i saw a roentgen picture where each finger had their own platform and the 6th finger had all bones like normal fingers.

6th finger -> genetic-mistake
It's more or less luck if you can move your finger and get benefits from it or if it's just a random mutation that pops out of ya hand.
That evolution. . mutations become "normal" and the evolution goes on. -
Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 21:52:06
6 fingers isn't a genetic "mistake," it's caused by polydactly which is a trait just like any other. Saying it's a mistake is like living in Asia and saying people with blond hair and blue eyes have genetic mistakes.
-
Date: Fri, Feb 15 2008 22:42:25
Then just call it a genetic-mutation what ev' i didnt want to harm anyone. . there still a huge diffrence between blond people and guys who have 6 fingers but can only use 5 0.o

Hmmm but what about spinning. Any comments?

Date: Sat, Feb 16 2008 12:56:09
5th finger?
Doesn't seem like a great advantage in pen spinning, it would just be an extra slot to do tricks in and make FingerPass harder. -

Hell yea!
If you could move the 6th finger really easy like you indexfinger or something the spinning would be much more 'longer' and looks more advanced. I think it would be very cool if you had a 6th finger ^^
If I had a choise the chose to have 5 fingers or 6 I would defentley(?) chose the 6th finger.
Imagine a shadow rise from 45(?) to 12 =D -

My opinion- movable 6th finger=godly person
Also, do you mean 11 total or 12 total? -
Date: Sat, Feb 16 2008 18:49:47
I didn't know of anybody with 6th fingers. But I do have a friend with a total of 12 toes. 6 on each side.
But the 6th toe like what others had mentioned, he cannot move it at all. -
Date: Sun, Feb 17 2008 04:28:25
Polydactyly. Chances are rare the person would have it and even rarer that they'd spin.
-

Gee,imagine someone doing Continuous 6th Finger Bak X 10 ...
If someone who has 6 fingers do spin pens,then what are they gonna name the 6th finger?I mean,the 5th finger is called Pinky finger right?
So what are they gonna call the 6th finger? -
Date: Sun, Feb 17 2008 10:54:55QUOTESo what are they gonna call the 6th finger?
Erm... 'sixth finger'. -
Date: Sun, Feb 17 2008 15:31:32
i think havin a 6th finger for spinning would be awesome
i might even pay to c it, but it would probably be A LOT harder to control than the other 5 fingers -

Mutation extension? All in caps, and in bold. So much for the nice number notation.
Not really, jk
I think it could be called mini finger. Or extra finger, even though it may or may n
ot sound a bit bad to some people.
Anyway, I knew a guy who told me he knew a guy who knew a guy (oh yeah, it gets better )
that one guy had a second thumb. It worked out great for him, and he said that it's really handy.
But hey, it kind of makes you wonder where the 6th finger would be situated. It could be lined up nicely like the 4 fingers we have (not counting the thumb), but it could also be poking out from the side of the index finger. What if it were on the back side of the hand? -

i had a friend who had 2 thumbs(both hands), the 2nd thumb was as big as her 1st thumb, i taught her a thumbaround, and the pen goes around the two thumbs. she just get used to stick the thumbs together. lolx!!!
but then, at february, she done surgery to remove the extra thumbs.
i have another friend (a boy) who had another small pinky finger, maybe 1.5cm. its short, not useable in pen spinning i think, he can move his right one but the left one is retarded. -
Date: Sat, Jul 26 2008 11:24:08
i for one would not be impressed if someone had 6fingers. i would be impressed if some pro level spinner was MISSING a finger
and still awesome at spinner. Ever heard of that thing where if you loose something on the body you gain something elsewhere? Like if you're blind you're hearing is awesome lolz ><. Yeah anyways someone with 4fingers doing things a person with 5fingers can do THAT would be impressive -

I saw a six-fingered guy at Bodyworlds. Its called hectodactlyism I think. Too bad he's dead.

You guys might not know this, but having 6 fingers is actually a dominant trait whereas having 5 fingers is recessive.
The reason why almost everyone has 5 fingers instead of 6 fingers can be explained by the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium.
"Gene frequencies do not change much unless something in the environment selects them over other
genes. In other words, unless 6 fingers somehow becomes an advantage, and
five-fingered people have less of an advantage, the frequency of six fingered
people in the population will not necessarily increase. This is the same
reason that recessive traits don't disappear from the population. Also, six
fingers is not considered attractive and they may not get as many mates.
Also, more people are born with six fingers than you might imagine but just
have them amputated shortly after birth." -

But most of them can't control their 6th fingers.
That is a fact. -

I wonder how common a 6th finger trait is and does it vary by country -

6 fingers would make an insane bakfall XD

Having 6 fingers would make 2P2H a lot easier, as you could do for example Pass 45-43 and Pass 23-12 simultaneously (a lot easier than doing Pass 34-23 and 23-12) .

most people who have six fingers cant move the extra one. Its just like an tumor and get in the way. Then some end up cutting it =[

A person having six fingers would really have a hard time to control the sixth finger while spinning.
And even if he does he will have a harder time learning the tutorials! -
Date: Fri, May 22 2009 20:23:24
Lol. I had a friend who has a sixth finger on his right hand. That was during the time when I was still in my Primary/Elementary school. But yea, like you all said, the sixth finger can't be moved. But having six fingers look kinda weird to me.
-
Date: Sat, May 23 2009 09:40:53
one of da x men i suppose
my teacher also had an extra finger, but it was connected to another finger and has no full control over it. -
Date: Sat, May 23 2009 10:53:48
... It sounds very interesting
What about person who only has 4 fingers
They can't do many tricks with only 4 fingers
-
Date: Sat, May 23 2009 15:13:38
well which four fingers? without the thumb it is different, much different than missing the pinky or ring
lookin' for a glove huh? good one
well why not take a look for pinkyaround normally you have to do it fingerlessly, but now with the 6th finger... -

It'll depend on the person. If it's just an extra piece then, you mightt not feel the pain. If it's an extra piece that just doesn't move, then you will feel the pain even though it doesn't move.
Everything really differs from person to person. -

Ok, this means that basically in a few thousand years we'll all have six fingers (including a thumb) to pen spin because amputation does not weed out the gene
Then, they will be all going woah about 7 fingers >.> Oh the irony. If only we were all from the simpsons -

this is really interesting. hmmm i wonder 99 6th finger spread? haitua fall would 5 haituas. 6th finger busting and baks? there is so much new to do if a spinner has 6th fingers. 2p1h 3p 2h would be easier you just keep the ohter pen in the extra slot.
4p2h 6p2h could be possible too. 2p2h 3p2h would be easier as well. there is so much possibilities -

Maybe it's difficult to learn spin to him...I never saw have six fingers people
