Also any other kind of joint movement that is impossible in waking life...

That's not really impossible in waking life; I can pull all of my fingers back to within an inch of the back of my hand

When you are in the dream world, we can all agree that anything we want, we can make happen. This "reality" holds true for reality checks as well. If you firmly believe that something is a reality check, it will work as one. One of my favorites is when I do a reality check, I touch something and in a dream it turns to chocolate. I then eat the chocolate and then have fun in the LD! What fun

Yes, if you are very flexible than it wouldn't work for you, but you can try another joint that is not that flexible, such as pulling the hand back at the wrist to touch the back of the arm.

Oh my, dodobird! That finger one is perfect for me! I've just realized that most of my dreams have dream characters, which is why I don't nose check (unless it's a false awakening) in those dreams. Now I have a perfect RC to do when other people are around! (Because face it: staring at your hand doesn't always work, and poking your palm still looks funny).

I just thought of another good one: try to sneeze with your eyes open.

Actually, thats possible in real life.

actually it isn't...
but that just goes to show how bad a a reality check that is since people can't even tell if their eyes are open in real life...
