Also how did you come to learn how to snap your fingers?
Press the pad of your thumb and the end of your middle finger together with some force. It helps to offset the finger to the left side of the thumb (looking down at the thumb). Hold your thumb still, and try to pull the tip of your middle finger down to your palm, until it overcomes friction and snaps against your palm at the base of your thumb.
I can only do it with ring finger. I can’t get any sound out if I use middle finger
It’s impressive he can snap with a metal gauntlet, I wouldn’t think it’d give enough friction with the metal on metal.
The gauntlet can wipe out half the population instantly, and you think it’s unable to snap its fingers 😭
You try to push your thumb and forefinger through each other. Eventually they slip.
There’s a song called “Snap your fingers, snap your neck.”
There’s also
Snap ya fanguhs, do the step, you can do it all by yo self, lemme see ya do it
I feel like these are two entirely different processes.
Demon Hunter also did a pretty good cover.
Put your fingers together like so:
Then push your thumb to the right while pressing your middle finger down hard. Let your thumb slide out, releasing your middle finger, which will snap against your hand like this:
Your middle finger hitting your hand is what makes the snapping noise, so the harder your press your middle finger down, the louder the snap will be.
Press your middle finger and thumb together with your pinky in the hollow of the gerl of your hand and your ring finger slightly overlapping it at the base of the thumb. Move the thumb out of the way to the side, allowing the middle finger to accelerated down to strike the spot where the ring finger meets the base of the thumb.
How I learned? In a dream. I literally woke up snapping my fingers and I’ve been able to do it ever since.
You just put your fingers together and blow.
Wait… 🤔
- Place your thumb firmly onto your middle finger, you’ll want to apply significant pressure with your finger here
- Push your thumb ourwardly to the side while maintaining pressure
- As your middle finger slams into the palm bit of your thumb it should produce a noise
- Practice until you can do it more consistently and loudly. Try doing with the other hand - I can only snap loudly with my non-dominant hand
I spent hours one afternoon as a kid trying to figure it out. After a few hours my right (dominant) hand was completely wrecked, but I was so frustrated I just switched to the left hand and kept trying. Eventually I got a passable snapping sound and ran to my mom sobbing with joy to demonstrate the saddest sounding snap. She noticed my hands were shaking and made me sit down and hold them on ice packs, lol.
I’m 29 now and still can’t snap with my dominant hand for shit but my left hand snap sounds decent.
I’ve taught my cat to come over when I snap my fingers. It started by just trying to get its attention…
Edit: typo.
I was a child and had enough time to devote to learning this.
For me it’s my middle finger hitting the cushion below the thumb that makes the noise.
Also answering the second question, I have a vague memory of being in 4th grade and all of us trying to learn how to snap fingers during recess by watching each other and trying to do it.
This is a skill I do not have, and apparently I may be one of two people in the world who can’t do it.
Pushing your middle finger tightly into your thumb to build up pressure. Vary the pressure slightly and your middle finger will slip off your thumb, and due to the pressure built up, quickly slam into the base of your thumb and produce a loud sound.
Once you’re got the hang of that you can try it with other fingers. The ring finger works nicely as well.
Press your middle finger against your thumb. Pull the middle finger down, but barely stop it with your thumb. Play with that hand movement
