Can you see your own nose?
I was just talking to my younger son and he asked this question. I said yes I can see my own nose; what kind of question is that? He swears that a large number of people he asks say they cannot see their nose.<BR><BR>I said "when I look crosseyed that's pretty much all I see". He said people state that even covering one eye and looking to the side that they cannot see their nose.<BR><BR>He had to go, so I didn't get to ask yet how this possibly came up. But I'm 99% sure he's not just screwing with me.<BR><BR>So, I figured a poll might shed some light.Can you see your nose on your face? Directly, not in the mirror.Yes, if I look hard to the side with one eye or crosseyed, there it is.No, and I never knew what I was missing.

If I close one eye I can see the side of my nose.

Me three, or four?

Don’t even have to try. Looking ‘at’ my iPad I see it in peripheral. Is ion with either eye when the other is closed.

And no, I do not have a big schnozz…

I can also roll my tongue and twiddle my thumbs in opposite directions. And walk. At the same time.
