Thanks for explaining the need to gleek. Sounds like a male bonding ritual to me. Do you grow out of it?

As for why (at least for me and my friends), competition was the primary motivation (e.g. distance, volume, accuracy, etc.). Since it was something my friends and I learned to do together, the statistics from the article might make you think we were a pretty rare group. Ah, but I'd suggest otherwise! Liz,

So click on the link at the beginning of this post and all will be revealed.

Sounds like you part of the .0001% that has these unique talents. So tell, why would you want to be able to 'gleek'? Is it one of those simply, because I can sort of things...have to say (hope I don't sound sexist here) it seems like a male thing to do. Hi Jack and welcome to Healthbolt.

My question would be not 'why can't I?' but 'why in the world would I want to?' It's a strange world and I guess a talent is a talent!!! Neatorama did a great job putting the list and explanations together. Hi Crabby, I know what you mean about the ‘gleeking’.

Anyway, I'm able to do 1 (always), 3 (but not since high school), and 9 (left hand, right foot or vice-versa). I suspect drummers might be able to do #9. Hi, I’m new to reading this blog…I like it!

Why on earth is there a word for it if no one can do it? A mystery. Great list though. I had to google “gleeking” and I kinda wish I hadn’t. Why on earth is there a word for it if no one can do it?
