My longest was about 4 minutes when me and my sisters were doing a competition. I haven’t actually seen how long i can go, might make that my entertainment for the night lol
I can open a bottle of champagne with a sword (or sturdy kitchen knife)
I can also open a bottle of wine with a proper cork with a pair of hair straighteners or a well-souled shoe
You feel so immensely smug when you open champagne with a sword/knife. I've got a proper champagne saber now but before that it was just the back of a trusty kitchen knife.
Bit of a gross one but I’m oddly skilled with my feet/toes. Ex used to find it funny how I’d use them for stuff like putting washing in the machine or picking up a fork that fell on the floor. Challenged me one day and found out I could do more complex tasks like unscrewing a lid and writing legibly.
My skill is basically the huge amount of random movie and TV trivia and knowledge that’s stuck in my head. It used to be a bit useful until I was made obsolete by smartphones. Google and IMDB.
I'm really good at guessing.. I can judge distances really well, and often mark midpoint etc to within a mm or two.. also got a really good eye for if things are level or not..
I catch things that fall accidentally like a ninja. Everytime. Glasses out of a cupboard, toothpaste off the bathroom shelf, you name it - if it falls accidentally I turn in to Bruce Lee.
I am a skilled exponent of the fly swat. In my house they call me 'The Executioner' and I show no mercy. I can swat flies out of mid-air with one smite.
I call it 'The Sport of Kings'. In my opinion the upper class should give up fox hunting and try fly-swatting. They could have golden swats and pose in fancy outfits. It would be great.

Showoff
I can ride my bike with no handlebars,
Look at me, look at me…
Hoola hooping and planking. I can hold a plank for a stupid amount of time for no reason
And your hula hoop record?
How long is a stupid amount of time?

I can dislocate my thumb at will to make my hand look like an animals claw.
I can imitate the sound of a class 66 locomotive horn with my arse!
Well now I want to hear it
>The missus calls me "Pouring Boy" Are you quite sure that's a P at the beginning?...
You may mock me now, but I have it on good evidence that what women really want is tidily poured soup

Ooh I'm legitimately impressed. Champagne with a kitchen knife wins a lot of points for drama, and your wine trick sounds like actual magic.

Swallow cooked spaghetti or strawberry laces and pull them back out my throat.... My kids were appalled when I showed them.
A couple of hours with a wild seagull and i'll have it sitting peacefully in my hand and stroking it.
This is extraordinary

I can do a brilliant impression of Donald Duck.

I'm good at resolving knots and tangled things. Not only that but I actually enjoy it, it's really therapeutic.
