Interesting: Saw this on another board and sorry to rob, but I thought u guys would get a kick outta this too :

NAGPUR, India -- An Indian boy considers his rare birth defect to be an advantage.
Devender Harne, 10, was born with 25 fingers and toes -- six fingers on each hand, six toes on one foot and seven on the other.
Though it would be considered an abnormality to some, Devender says it allows him to work faster than the average child.
The extra digits on his hands and feet don't hinder his daily life. Like any normal 10-year-old, he goes to school, plays sports and spends time with his friends.
The Guinness Book of World Records has contacted the boy's family and is investigating whether he has the most useful fingers and toes in the world.

Simply astonishing! I'm glad the boy and his family don't see this as an obstacle, but as a blessing.
The amount of congenital mutations in India is very high, I saw a report on it last night.

That's because there's too much inbreeding. Look at me for example.

Wow, that kid can give you the middle finger 3 times

When he's older, maybe his wife will be happier than most.

That is awesome, I feel happy for him, he can do lots of stuff that we can't, when I first saw his two hands, I didnt even realize he had 6 fingers, nice find Maarf.

He needs to cut the toe growing from ontop of his foot. Besides that..pretty cool.

lmfaooo
I feel kinda bad for the kid, he probably gets made fun of for it.. calling him a freak or something.

Of course not, he can only do it 1 way/time. He only has a (1) middle finger on the hand with the 7 fingers.

I was talking about the hand with 6 fingers. Looks like he has 2 middle fingers.

He might, but from the sounds of it, he seems to lead a normal life

It's not so noticable anyways, you need a second look to actually realize that he has an extra finger, but other than that, I can see how he'll knock off all his classmates in a typing speed contest.

the foot with 7 looks fuckin disgusting
Wed Nov 02, 2005 10:40 am
i wonder how fast he types
Wed Nov 02, 2005 10:53 am
Damn, that shit is crazy
What I wonder is if it would be easier to type or harder?

* You calling me a freak? Up yours! *
Those fingers will be more of an advantage if he learns how to play a musical instrument.
I just remembered that 6 fingered pianist from Futurama.

KIIIIILLLL HIIIIIIIM!
Wed Nov 02, 2005 12:02 pm
Just that one toe that grows above the rest of the toes is messd...it looks disgusting.
Wed Nov 02, 2005 12:08 pm
I dont know how you feel happy about the kid, he has 6 fingers! Good thing about it is that his extra finger isnt just popping out of nowhere, it looks pretty normal.

Why would you feel sad? Do those fingers handicap him in some way?
Wed Nov 02, 2005 12:15 pm
Its not normal. You should not feel happy about something when its abnormal. End of story.
Wed Nov 02, 2005 12:33 pm
Why say it's abnormal? He does live a "normal" life with his extra appendages.
To the extent of me being crazy, what if that boy is the next step in human evolution?
Is evolution abnormal?

Yeah, we just all want to fit in with the cool kids who are "normal" now don't we.
Wed Nov 02, 2005 1:22 pm
I am not saying that he does not live a normal life, he probably does, and i really dont care. The fact that he has 25 fingers and toes is abnormal, that is nothing to be happy about. I dont think you would be happy if you had 25 fingers+toes.

Then stop contradicting yourself and stop posting and bothering us whether it's abnormal or not.
