I crack most of my fingers differently

[sundev]

I crack my index fingers by pushing them towards my palm (usually with my thumb), my middle and ring fingers I like to pull to crack, and my little fingers I like to push back towards the back of my hand.

But for my toes I like to pull them.. oh and I don't crack my back/neck.

Anyone else like to crack different fingers in different ways?

Is this some kind of middle school penis measuring contest that I dont know about

 

[wfbberzerker]

i do the 'ol interlocking the fingers, and pushing away from my chest.

 

[Dimmu]

Nope. I crack all my fingers back towords the back-side of my hand. No toe cracking for me. I crack/stretch my back if it's stiff, not chronically.

 

[Anubis]

i can crack just about every joint in my boday in a bunch of diff ways

 

[Chompman]

What wfbberzerker said, also crack my neck and back but don't do toes much since they don't crack as much since you don't move them as much.

Though now I can make a fist slowly and it repeatedly cracks certain fingers over and over until it starts hurting, like after 20 times.

I wonder if that's good for you.

I stopped cracking my fingers because of all the joint problems that will result in the future if I continue. I only crack my back sometimes, after lifting weights.

I don't know if this is going to make sense how I say it but...

I can crack my knuckles by just making fists... well, not quite fists, but if I curl my fingers up I can do it in such a way that they crack. I can do this while making them into fists too if I want to.

(Ok, no sexual innuendo here, it's too easy)

I think it's a myth that you will get joint problems.

I think Bill Nye the Science Guy said that it wouldn't cause joint problems (where I get all my medical advice)

After cracking my knuckles a couple times a day consistently for a few months my joints swelled up and I didn't have the range of motion in my fingers that I had before.. Needless to say I stopped cracking them.

Depends if I'm in ninja mode or not

I always thought the cracking of joints was harmless, as it's just the passing of synovial fluid from one side of the joint to another.

its the nitrogen bubbles escaping

 

[DanTMWTMP]

I always crack about everything.

The best is when i crack my neck and feel each vertabrae going "crack crack crack crack!
Same for my back.


I also crach every finger, and every joint in the finger sidewise, and the joint at the base of my thumb. I can also crack my wrists, elbows, spine, shoulder, knees, ankles, toes, nose

I crack these at every chance I get. There's that certain hidden feelling you get, that you know when to crack them. I crack them everyday, and i feel wierd and that something's missing if i don't crack them.

The crack comes from gas getting between the joints and then escaping quickly when you flex them. Kind of the same concept as smacking your mouth to make a popping sound.

crack kills

cracking your fingers...that ranks right up there with the people who feel the need to smack a new pack of cigarettes against their palm a hundred times before opening it
