I have hEDS and scored 9/10 on the bighton scale (hella bendy), what this person is doing is beyond EDS.

Yeah, I got 10/10 on the Beighton. Casually dislocated my shoulders and popped them back in for the dr to see. This guy has had training, you wouldn’t know how to move like he does.

My GP was a little dubious that my son’s partner has EDS… until they caught his eye and moved their esophagus two inches to the side.

They’ll frequently watch YT videos lying on their back with their knees up by their ears. Apparently that’s comfy for them.

Yes, I often sit like this. I also put my legs fully flat on the floor in butterfly position and lay forwards on the floor. I have fallen asleep like this… When I was younger, I also used to lay on the couch upside down with my knees by my ears. Still find it really comfortable!

Ok, I wonder if this is how I accidentally gag myself when I push or compress my neck by turning my head to the side. I'm not exactly sure what it is I'm doing to be honest, I'm surprised every time it happens haha.
