btw, i can't.. i'm too scared to try, might hurt myself or some such

[Witticism]

What about "I can't, but I'm neither too fat nor scared of doing it." as an option?

[Sam172]

Sadly not, but i'm working on it...

[SensEye]

Or what about "I can for two or three seconds, but my balance isn't good enough to maintain a handstand for any length of time". Is that a yes or a no?

[cloakable]

:lol: how about "you are foolish for posting a poll in a forum full of NP's"

Ah, I used to do hand stands all the time as a kid, but I havent tried in years.

my dad, an INTP, can stand and walk on his hands. So it's not type-specific (although his sensing and judging functions are more developed than most, I think) I can stand on my hands for a few seconds and if I let my calves dangle, but I have back problems so it's extremely painful. I can stand on my head for long periods of time...but i dont, because it's boring.

Yep. Used to do gymnastics as a kid. Can anyone do the horizontal balancing thing? (You put your hands on the edge of a table or something, put your elbows into your center of gravity, and lean forwards... I'll post a pic if I get around to it, and if enough people have no clue what I'm talking about...)

If you like hand stands and those sort of things i have a nice trick :)

I had this thing in my head and i practiced some weeks.
I will post a movie about it once its on the net.

The video is up.

The hard thing was getting my legs under me, crossing them did the trick.

Enjoy :)

http://users.pandora.be/kuo-lung/trukje.movI have no idea how you did that. :huh:

You could try watching the video in slow motion. :whistle:

Seriously, that was quite impressive.

so, INTPs arent fat then?

Correction, too fat to do handstands

[Zero Angel]

I can do the hand walking thing for about 5 seconds (yay for four grueling weeks of strength exercises!). It helps if you do that exercise with dumbells where you roll them to the edge of your hand then close your hand.

I'm not willing to do it too much because I have a little bit of a fear that if I fall the wrong way that my wrists will break.

not to mention the neck and dignity
