Top Ten Things That Are Impossible to Do

I can do it (barely). I have a long tongue and don't bend my elbow the right way. Yeah, they hyperextend. I lift my arm so my elbow is in front of my mouth and fully extended. Then I lick the side that's normally the bony side.

Britgirl - you are funny! I had visions of you pausing to try and lick your own elbow. What do you look like, by the way? I imagine you as a tall brunette.

Yeah, it is impossible! I can't even get past an inch close to my elbow. SLOOP. Yeah, it's impossible!

Hold up here... I read a comment that states blind people can do this... Why would a blind person's eyes be shut to even try to read?

If you can do this, please let me in on the secret.

How can anybody do that? If anybody can do that, please let me know.

It may still be possible in a way, if wormholes are real and they can patch you through to a different part of the universe almost instantaneously. Then, we can in fact travel faster than the speed of light.

Traveling at light speed is physically impossible. Light speed is 874,030 times faster than the speed of sound. The fastest man-made object (the Juno spacecraft) has only traveled 295 times the speed of sound.

Correct! It is physically impossible to reach 100% of the speed of light if you are comprised of any amount of mass. Since mass and energy are one and the same, they both increase exponentially and infinitely the closer you reach C. So yes, this can't be done, and no, warping space-time is not the same thing.

It doesn't say you have to win the race or even how far you have to race. Just to race against Usain Bolt on your hands. If you go one foot, I could do that easily.

Tie his limbs together and make him hop. If he falls, he will have some trouble beating you...

I will give you a billion dollars if you are able to do this. Can you do this (also applies to Britgirl)?

Damn. I thought my elytra would work.

It is possible to run on walls, and it is possible to walk on walls with boots that can make your feet stick to the wall. But without any boots like that, it is impossible to walk on walls!

Yeah, because by the time you reach 100 it would probably be an even longer list.

As long as Russia, North Korea, Venezuela, China, etc., are led by dictators, this won't happen.

Sadly, it's pie in the sky. Not achievable.

My fish is very talented. He cannot play the clarinet. The flute is a different story.

I have actually tried this and believe me, it's impossible to do!

I added this and I didn't add it because I want to hear that. I added it because it happens every time.

Just watching the news without hearing about something tragic is impossible these days.

I talk to them, compare prices and things. I do it all the time. Can't stop.

By the way, if some smart aleck says something about being at the four-state corner, that doesn't count.

It is possible for some human beings to sneeze with both eyes open. However, I would recommend not trying to do so because sneezing with your eyes open can result in a major migraine. Also, just to let you know, your eyes will not "shoot from their sockets." That is a hoax. There is no muscle behind the eyeball that can possibly contract and push it out of the socket.

Most people think that the eyelids help keep the eye in place while you sneeze, when in reality the eyelid doesn't have enough muscle capacity to do that anyway. The only reason why eyelids close when sneezing is because of a simple nerve reflex. (I'm 14 and I'm explaining simple anatomy to adults. *Face palm*)

Much harder than flying because that item doesn't specify that you can't use an airplane.

I can run a mile in 10 minutes! Wow, I'm so slow.

It's just as well that bananas taste horrible to me, so I'm never in that gross situation. But I'm addicted to curries, so I'm always careful. And it's not impossible to avoid getting it on me, as long as I sit upright.

That's right, we can't love two people at the same time because when you truly love someone, you spend your days thinking about him/her. Can we think about two people at the same time?

Depends on what type of love you're talking about. I definitely love my family and friends, and there are more than two people in my family alone.

It is impossible to love two people romantically at the same time. If it's love, you only love one person and you don't doubt it.

This I agree with for impossible.

It would be more frustrating than anything if it were possible.

Edit: To clarify, this is because I've read Wings of Fire. That form of telepathy seems like torture, even if it's a blessing.

It is impossible. I wish it wasn't, but it is. I just can't get through.

I wish I could talk to people without anyone eavesdropping...

I LOVE The Artist. I love everything about the film. Cannot fault it at all. I love the music... EVERYTHING about it. It's one of my favorite films OF ALL TIME. It'd be impossible for me to sleep through such a wonderful film. Sorry for going on, but The Artist is a film I'm so passionate about. Erm...I'll get off my soapbox now, shall I?

I have tried three times to get through this movie but end up falling asleep halfway. I don't know why anyone would put up with this garbage. I hate this movie, and nothing anyone can say will change my mind about it.

This is not impossible! Someone has done this before while trying to make a new species of bees (which the man succeeded in doing). The species accidentally escaped quarantine and spread through South America into North America. By the way, the species was the Africanized honey bee.

I can't do any of that at the same time. I'm too busy laughing.
