I still can't learn to whistle. It took me awhile to learn how to blow bubbles with chewing gum so maybe in time I'll learn.

I eventually was able to slightly do the eyebrow raise, sometimes better than others.

What I always find myself doing though is the *snappy snap* of the fingers like the Three Stooges do(Stooge fans will know what I mean) and it ends with hitting each finger on the cheek hoping to protrude the same sound effect as in the shorts(although I'm sure some can!).

Just a warning though, if you ever learn to do any of these things, you'll find yourself doing it all the time without it having to be intentional.

Just my 2 cents..

I learned several weird movements with this technique, the eyebrow raise included.

Raise both your eyebrows and use your fingers to squish one of them back into place while still attempting to raise them both. This will force the muscles to be up on one side and down on the other. Focus on how this feels and attempt to recreate it without touching your face. Looks really weird and takes some practice, but it's pretty effective.

This also works for winking (close both eyes, cover one so it can't re-open and open your eyes). The strangest thing I learned this way was how to turn my tongue upside-down. You grasp your tongue firmly and rotate it 1/2 turn so that the taste buds are pointing down. Then try to hold it in that position when you let go of it.

I had too much time on my hands as a child.
