Really simple things that you can't do

Embarrassingly, I am completely unable to do any of these simple things that I would bet the majority on here can do:

* Click my fingers
* Burp
* Whistle using just my lips (i.e. no external whistle)
* Swim
* Use an iron
* Do a cartwheel or handstand or anything of that sort
* Juggle even just 2 balls
* Perform any magic trick
* Play anything on the piano

I can do most of what you said (except whistling, I don't think I'll ever crack that one, I still dream of doing a handstand). Can most people really play piano to an appreciable level?

I can't cook pretty much anything

Use an iron... really? You can't press a heavy metal object onto a table? :rolleyes:

Grate cheese
Iron

I can't put on a shirt the right way in my first try :colondollar:

I can't swim, at least not without using floats (which doesn't really count). Having to do swimming in secondary school PE was annoying because they didn't really teach swimming much, it was just swimming lengths by that point.

Whistle

Is whistling a hereditary or acquired characteristic? i.e. can you learn how to?

Juggling? No need to do it if you're not performing at a circus or other major entertainment event
Swimming? If you can't do it, stay out of large bodies of water :wink:

Piano? I got up to grade 4 and that was it. Either you have to be really talented or have a lot of free time in order to master the piano
Magic tricks? They don't really exist
