The tongue, this organ that participates in the proper functioning of chewing, has an important role since food comes into direct contact with it. Indeed, it is the tongue that tells you whether the food you are eating is bitter, acidic, sweet or salty. Made up of 17 muscles, it measures an average of 9 centimeters. If at first glance, the tongue seems to be an organ that has only this function, for some people it is a source of amusement.
In fact, some people manage to perform feats with their tongue. We let you discover these incredible abilities!
Touch your nose with your tongue
Yes, you read correctly. Only 10% of the population can touch their nose with their tongue. If you've never tested it, do it! But wait until you're alone because doing it in public is risking having the eyes of passers-by glued to you... Although, with the mask, you are rather well hidden. And if you don't have a mask, remember: looking a fool never killed anyone.

Use your fingers to memorize the position of the muscles.
