Humans have been puzzled by things like the depths of the ocean and outer space. But one equally mysterious object has been standing right in front of you when you look in the mirror. It’s a human body.
And one TikTok creator named Knowledgesaurus has been stripping away the mystery surrounding it in a series of “How Rare Is Your Body?” videos. From explaining what percentage of people have features like cracked tongue, angled palm crease, or an extra rib, to counting how many people have the ability to write with both their right and left hands, or can make a clover out of their tongue.
The informative and fun videos gained Knowledgesaurus immediate popularity with millions of views and 1.3M followers, so let’s see some of the most interesting body facts that will pump your biology knowledge muscle so you can show it off in the next trivia session.

30% of people can flare their nostrils on command. However that muscle has very little use and is usually weak, so a lot of people can't do it on command.

Still on redheads, they carry a mutated version of the MC1R gene, which in addition to giving their hair its unique colour, also means they process pain differently and require higher doses of inhalational anaesthesia than non-redheads.

I was born a "toe-head" as they used to say, white-blonde hair, just like my parents, brothers, and most of my relatives. As I aged it turned "dirty blonde" then med brown. JUST LIKE almost everyone else in my family on both sides. I had to go through some chemo in my late 30s and I was without a spec of hair on my entire body for 6 months. My hair started growing again and it came back kinky (I had bone straight hair) and FLAME ORANGE! It toned down to a darker red over the course of 2 months then slowly replaced itself with light brown hair again. I asked my Mom if anyone in our family, both sides, ever had naturally red hair. "Just one, your great Grandmother, but we don't have color photos of her of course, but she had bright red hair like that her entire life until it turned white". I kind of miss that color, but not the corkscrew little ringlets that first appeared. Was it the chemicals used in my chemo cocktails or latent genes?
Adinda Jane 1 year ago (edited)
I love your story! Although the chemo-part is sad. Ofcourse. 😔 I hope you're okay! Okay this is a wild guess because I'm not working in genetics. The information for hair colour is on your X chromosome. And by the name of Alice I suppose you're female. So you have two X chromosomes. One from your mother's mother (mother mother mother and sofort) and one from your father's mother. The same applies for cats. Tortoiseshell cats are always females. Some of the spots on their fur one X chromosome is "dominant" and another spot the other. Which implies every cel "determined" which X chromosome it activated. So perhaps something like this was triggered by the chemo?

I had red (auburn) hair for one year (10th grade). The next year, it turned back to light brown but with a very noticeable blond streak that people thought I paid for. Before that, at any time, if you looked at individual strands of hair, you would see: red, blond, dark brown, light brown strands. Then after I got the blond streak (which went away), my hair was uniformly light brown. Very weird.
Adinda Jane 1 year ago
Same here! 4 colours and unfortunately the brown hair (back of my head and behind my ears) gets replaced by grey 🤔 But because I still have the blond streak I hope it doesn't stand out.

Funnily enough, in the last... let's say 5-8 years, I've seen an increase in red-headed children where I work. It's a family-park, so I really get to see a lot of children. Interestingly, it's very often a darker, more brownish red, tending towards dark copper. Beautiful color. I've always wanted to have read hair, but it seems I'm just a boring-old blonde. My nephew might be a tad reddish, though - too early to say.

That's incorect. All of us have the same genes, what you have to say is that both parents need to possess the variant (allele) for red hair. That could be possible if both parents are red-haired or if they are carriers of the genetic variant but have a different hair color

I guess the majority of red-haired people are caucasian, esp. north-western European. Since the western world is big on capitalism, "thanks" to the US, and thus on advertising and has a higher percentage of red-haired, I'm not surprised the number of red-haired ad actors is much higher compared to the global population. Though 30% is still surprisingly high.

In my family they believe that there is a red hair curse. The first born child of anyone in my family is always a redhead (this has always been the case and records support it). If you have a second child that is also a redhead, your first born will die before reaching adulthood. My big brother was a redhead and he was follow by my sister, another redhead. 18 months after she was born my brother fell ill and was diagnosed with a tumour on the brain he died at 5 years old. This has also happened to 2 aunties and several cousins. The family are hoping my other sister may have broken the curse because she's just had her second child, both are mixed race so neither have red hair.

“I’m 25 years old and have been an entrepreneur since the age of 19. I found success with that early on and ended up dropping out of college. I made good money, but wasn’t happy.” At that point, the TikTok creator took a risk and decided to “stop all that and start something more fun that I’m interested in and that’s how Knowledgesaurus started. I started this account 1/1/2021 with the goal of growing it and making it my full-time job and within 110 days, I was able to reach 1 million followers, which I’m so thankful for!”

24% of people can raise one eyebrow, however you can learn to do this as well.
When asked how he came up with the idea for the "How Rare Are You?" series, Knowledgesaurus said it started after making a bunch of videos and seeing what people enjoyed watching. “I realized that people love to know information about themselves and love statistics. So that’s how the series began.”
“I always loved knowing random useless information to surprise people with,” the content creator said and added: “I think it all started when I was younger. If someone was talking about something I didn’t know much about, I would go and look up stuff about it and find interesting information about that topic so I could have a better conversation next time.”

#31
Less than 1% of people have pointy or elf-like ears. It's an abnormality called Stahl's ear, it's usually corrected early in life.
Sleazy Weaver 4 years ago
Why does it need correcting? Isn't it just a cosmetic difference? Shouldn't it be up to the child to keep it or change it once they're old enough to make the decision, as long as it isn't impacting their hearing?
#33

Demi Zwaan 4 years ago
Need or want? My teeth aren't perfect and if I was an actor or something, I would've 'needed' braces, but health-wise I don't. So do they mean 75% will have health problems if they don't get work done, or just that it looks ugly?
#34
14% of people don't have this muscle - Palmaris Longus. This muscle was developed when our ancestors were big tree climbers. If you want to see if you still have it, pull back your palm on a flat surface, touch your pinky and thumb together and slightly lift them and you should see that ligament pop out.
#35
6% of people can vibrate and rapidly shake their eyeballs back and forth.
#36

About half of the population can wiggle their toes individually. The big toe and little toe have individual muscles so it's easier to move them, but the middle toes are all controlled by one set of muscles so those are a lot more difficult to move.

Something else that is also rare: having both red hair and blue eyes, and it’s actually the rarest combo on earth. This is because red hair and blue eyes alone are both rare, and both parents have to carry the gene for the child to have red hair and blue eyes. I actually have red hair and blue eyes. Both my sisters have red-ish hair, but their eyes are not blue and their hair isn’t nearly as red as mine.

Wow I'm even more of an odd-duck than I thought. I can do/have a lot of these. And some not on the list, like central heterochromia, around my pupil is an amber(ish) brown, and around that is green.

I can wiggle my ears on command, and so can my Dad. I've never met anyone else that could. I'm curious what % of the population can do that... I also have red hair, blue eyes, and a bunch of the other "rare" traits listed here, so let's just go ahead and call me a freak of nature lmao

What fun! I'm blonde (but boring old green eyes), can flare my nose, taste the soap in cilantro, have arch fingerprints, raise both eyebrows individually, have shorter big toe, sunlight makes me sneeze, have Reynaud's, only need 4 hours sleep, have hitchhiker's thumb (though never used it!), have Darwin's tubercle, can wiggle both ears, have palmaris longus, and perfect pitch.

Green eyes are incredibly rare, believe it or nto. Only 2% of the entire worlds population has green eyes, and iirc, they are the rarest eye colour aside from "mutations" that may cause different eye colours like a reddish or violet eye (albinism for example) (I also use the term mutation lightly, as funnily enough, the genes that cause a person to have green eyes initially was a mutation, same as with blue eyes, and this can be tracked down to certain specific ancestors, meaning people with green or blue eyes may be very, very, very, veryx10000 distantly related to each other xP) That means that freaking amber eyes are actually more common than green eyes. o.o So not, "boring old green eyes"!

Fascinating post. Luckily I read it early in the morning so no one saw me trying to lick my elbow, wiggle my ears, flare my nostrils, etc.

Something else that is also rare: having both red hair and blue eyes, and it’s actually the rarest combo on earth. This is because red hair and blue eyes alone are both rare, and both parents have to carry the gene for the child to have red hair and blue eyes. I actually have red hair and blue eyes. Both my sisters have red-ish hair, but their eyes are not blue and their hair isn’t nearly as red as mine.

I found out recently that my blue/gold center heterochromia (blue eyes with a gold ring) is exceedingly rare. My family and I always called my eye colour “Blue Hazel.”

Does anyone know anything about sharper canine teeth? Mine are much pointier than anyone in my family.

I don't know if it means anything. My dad had them too. When he was little my nephew wondered if I was a vampire. Never thought, I could have dressed up as a vampire on Halloween and not needed the fake teeth.

I have at least 16 of these, I wonder if some are likely to be associated with each other? Morton's toe, hyper flexible, extra rib, dimples, eye brows, seeing extra colours, ear wiggling, touch tongue to nose, nostril flare, preauricular sinus, whistle, gap tooth, never needed braces, gleeking, goosebumps and snoring. I only had 3 wisdom teeth, which is quite rare as well, and a form of Synaesthesia where I experience pain as smells.

So, who else scored themselves? 11 out of 50 weird things. unfortunately, mostly useless ones. lucky in some areas like colour acuity and 20/20 vision[failing with age though].

I have an extra muscle in my elbow called anconeus epitrochlearis. It causes pressure on my ulnar nerve sending some of my fingers numb sometimes and cause me to have a weak grip and I only have it on my left elbow.

My genetics prof was discussing different inherited traits. He mentioned that lobed or unlobed ears was one of them. I sat perfectly still with my one lobed ear and one ear not, trying not to be noticed.

If your not one of those from any country ( my fault but whales matter!!!) I hope we can rise and leave the ocean alone alittle. Just alittle.

Don't care if I'm the bitch. How on earth could I be that???? Yes yum, no whale obviously.

I'm so so over it. If I get cancer n shark fin could cure me! I will say no. Unlike U many shark fin soup dickheads. My grandfather survived old n no treatment. Not racist again but f**k you whale killers n Asians who would probably eat humans.

Please stop hurting whales, sharks n dolphins. I can't handle not being able to stop you.

I'm done. You next generation are too much!! Why can I not say one single thing without it being blown out of proportion??? If a Asian asked me why am I being mean against whales being murdered, I will say " "And how's your sushi bitch'. Or yes you don't understand me & I don't understand you. No worries.🙂🙂🙂

Does the chimp feet thing count for picking stuff up with your toes, or is that something most people do on a daily basis? I do it often myself when I see something on the floor but don't to bend over.
