    I can twitch my eyeballs left and right really fast, and not just a little bit - but most of the way.

    Completely grosses people out when I do it.

    Edit: I can even do circles, but not as fast as left and right.

        Neat! Thanks for the name/info.

        I’m the only person I’ve ever met who can do this. It’s apparently somewhat more common than I thought.

        I’m an old man, but I still do it specifically to my sister because she cannot stand it. /sibling rivalry lives on

        I don’t know because I can’t see a thing when I do it ;)

        Edit: I suppose I should make a video of myself - just never have. Sounds like I’ve got plans for the evening :)

          Oh…then maybe we have different talents. I can see the whole world having an earthquake when I do it.

      There used to be a subreddit for us. It was called /r/eyeshakers.

      By the way, the scientific name for the eye shake thing, IIRC, is nystagmus.
