Here are some more of my extra-silly challenges:

  • Can you point to your spine?
    • What about my spine?
  • Can you make the tiniest whisper ever?
  • Can you make the noise an otter makes?
  • Can you do an impression of a goldfish by holding your breath?
    • They can go for five months without oxygen!
