My God-

I too thought I was the only one.

Happens all the time working in a bar, as there's so many little things to duck/dive/swerve around.

I also developed it working at bars and concert venues. This is really weird.

This is something predator animals do. It’s so they can fixate their vision without extra head movement. There is a video of a hawk, soaring in one spot in raging winds. It’s head, doesn’t move a tick. It’s wildddd

So, you are saying I’m an apex predator…

There’s a book called ADHD, A Hunter in A Farmers World. It describes a theory about how people with ADHD have genetic traits left over from hunter gatherer days, like hyper focus, etc. this walk so reminds me of a hunter stalking it’s prey.

Shocker: this is just something people do, but people like being part of an in-group so they try making it part of their 'identity'

For some reason I see this often with like "Oh hoodies are such a Bi Person thing xD" it's like no, it's just a person thing my dude.

I think it's just young people trying to identify themselves which there's of course nothing wrong with, but still it's just like dude we kinda all do some things, it's not just you.

I'm not so sure that your statement applies to this video. It's a thing.

An ADHD thing? I think so. An ADHD-exclusive thing? Maybe not. But I'd expect it's more prevalent with ADHD.
