Why you should learn to write with both hands

[yihuanlocking]

i thought the left hand's handwriting was rather neat..

[runkat2011]

Really am left-handed and I could go faster than you but nice music

[bobsdaman69]

nice funky music

[ExOsiLe]

The song is called ignition by downlink :)

[victorious5510]

what song is that

[ExOsiLe]

@victorious5510 ignition by downlink

[dollybaby144]

im both

[pacisablo]

what was the experiment? to see if you felt smarter after you could write equally with left hand? because EVERYONE can learn to write with opposite hand with practice. I don't really see the "experiment" in that.

[Pr0zNemesis]

youre not really using your fingers. your just moving your arm to write the lettter.

[ccmattyfilms]

I'm both handed 8D but mostly left

[MrMuffin769]

When I broke my arm and I had to learn how to write with my left hand, the O,R,W and X were the hardest to write, cursive is expecially dificult to write.

[Lvl60Slayer]

U dont know how much it bothered me tht u wrote so slowly cuz im left handed im like: UGHHH I JST WNNA SHOW U HOW GOD DAMN IT!!

[betheperson1]

@Lvl60Slayer

And you don't know how much it pisses me off that you arent fluent in writing with your right hand.

[Lvl60Slayer]

@betheperson1 well i didnt know writing with your left wasnt normal??

[GabrielBissey]

Can you go faster with your left hand?



[parazit43v3r]

DUAL WEILDING FOUNTAIN PENS!

[ccmattyfilms]

I draw with my right but write with my left :D

[koolkoolkitten]

hehe ive been writing with my opposite hand for 3 weeks and about to go in my forth only on the weekends do i allow myself to write with my proper hand just so i can write with both im determined to keep going at least til christmas holidays in 2 weeks :D

[captainkapowable]

You should keep it up!

Last year a friend and had a bet running. We are both right handed, but the first person to have a person ask if we were left handed won the bet. we both learned to write with our non dominant hands.

My friend won, but we both kept it up.

Currently I'm taking a technical writing course(necessary for my degree) entirely left handed(as a joke because the course is useless)

[phoenixsong38]

you do know that if you do this you could posibly give yourself a great variaty of mental disorders like dyslexia. it can confuse your brain in why you are doing this and it will try to switch hand dominance which is almost inposible to acomplish and not recive mental disorders along the way.

[18SUNANDA]

@phoenixsong38 dont talk bulls*** first get d correct info the talk ..u can mislead people.....mental disorders like dyslexia are seen in ''some cases'' in people who r by born ambidextrous...not in those who become one after in their life by practising...human brain is not so stupid and limited tht it will be confused if u train urself 2 write with ur non-dominant hand..rather its a good exercise 4 d brain...dumbo..

[phoenixsong38]

@18SUNANDA well if those people are willing to risk there well being then by all means they should do it and yes i know that the human brain isnt stupid but if you do something like that to yourself that means that your puting your well being on the line. not many people de very well when they try this

[TheImpossibleKill]

what song is this



[shanetoons]

@TheImpossibleKill Ignition by Downlink :)

[TheImpossibleKill]

@shanetoons thanks :)

[Ashtonapplepie]

What about lower case letters?

[KiraRingcat]

I can write with both hands well but i cannot do sports with my left hand. And i usually pick up things with my left hand

[ToastedRose]

Stupid right handers--ya'll can't make left-handed magic like we lefties can!

[blaxos07]

@ToastedRose left hands ftw :)

[kbbles]

@weegee90000 and how did it go?

[weegee90000]

i challenged my self to use only my left hand all day today

[blaxos07]

@weegee90000 really hard if is not your main hand :( both for me if i want use right..

[Musemaniac247]

Why you trying to write with your left hand? I tried writing with my right hand its impossible I don't see the point

[lemanci]

you are right handed you need more practice with your left hand

[8000Rock]

Cos u can be Both Handed. Am I Rite?

[88riddlemethis]

You should try slowing down and taking your time. It's important to get the technique down and let your brain realize what your are doing since it's doing something knew.

[rissOriss]

Can someone please tell me what song this is?

[aldobritanio]

can you kick with your left leg then ?

[HikaruLychee]

Love the music!

[thebeatlescrazee]

@HerrFoobert hate to break it to you, but nobody needs your two cents.

[Linkinparkv6]

not bad with your left i almost couldnt tell u wrer right handed

[roooooooooo5]

why they say the one who write with left hand is smart !

is that right ?

[roooooooooo5]

i can write Arabic and English using both hands !!

so i can speak 2 languages

[louannetighe1]

I'm left handed. And I'm gettin' good with writing with my right hand.

[siafulinux]

Okay first, awesome music! What is it? Second, you should keep up with this. I've been doing it for, I dunno, maybe a couple of months now and I am at the point where I can actually write somewhat neatly. Looks more like my write handed writing when I'm in a rush. Writing with my left hand is useful at work, I now often have a hand on the mouse and my left hand checking things off and writing little notes, but I've wanted to do this for a while. Good luck!

[HerrFoobert]

As a natural left hander, I just have one comment. You're moving your whole arm WAY too much. Most of the writing is done in the left wrist, just like the right. While some arm movement is necessary (unlike the right) you don't need as much as you're doing.

Just my two cents

[Mrhamburgerable]

you get ocd if you write with both hands

[Mrhamburgerable]

guys dont write with your other hand you become brain damaged

[TheSe7enthSin]

@Mrhamburgerable That is the most complete bullshit I've ever heard. I'm ambidextrous and write with both hands, and there are many other people who also do the same.

[2MissMagic2]

The main difference that I can see: If you write with your right hand you're only moving your wrist/hand. If you write with your left hand you are moving your whole arm which doesn't help you to learn how to write left-handed

[TheSe7enthSin]

@2MissMagic2 Here's a fun fact though. Contrary to popular belief, the best way to write actually is using your entire forearm, not just your wrist. If you use your wrist to make all the movements, it'll cramp up faster and can cause carpal tunnel syndrome in people who write frequently. If you learn how to use your entire arm to write, it's actually less straining and can appear much neater if done right.

[MisterBlinkyTheGreat]

Man, even though you didn't keep up with it, this was a pretty cool video.

[Explinfin]

@MisterBlinkyTheGreat Thank you! I might restart this experiment again some day soon. I gotta get back into the zone soon for doing my little experiments. I've been busy going to physiotherapy for 6 hours a day lately, but I'm almost done.. and I'll have time to experiment again.

[mrdeath212]

@Explinfin When you cross your letter, T's, A's, J's, H's, you make the horizontal lines starting away from the letter and draw to it. As a right handed righter, you start on the letter and draw left to write. Does it matter which way you cross, connect, letters in an effort of being able to write faster left handed?

[simerpreet11]

and its 2011 we still haven't seen your video of you writing with left

[Explinfin]

@simerpreet11 Sorry to be honest I didnt keep up with this experiment.. It lasted about 2 weeks, and I was practising at work and the management got upset with all of the sloppy writing.. hahah.

[simerpreet11]

leonardo use to write with his 2 hands with his left he started from left and with his right he started on the right side and it ended up in the middle thats why i wanna learn how to do that! and nice song lol made me wanna shuffle.

[Sprinklelove202]

you make it look very easy to do! lol

[JAFrecordsHD]

i was born writting wh my both hands

[JelloSniper]

Ignition :D

[ErrorUncertainty]

This is not how you learn to write with the other hand. You do it by having to write with the other hand regularly for many months. I swtiched hands 6 months ago.

[lucariospirit]

That's what I do every day!

[XXxturduckenx]

i'm a left handed but i also write on my write hand since i was a kid!!!!

it's cool being to be a left and right handed!!!!

in school every time write and tired i switched on the other hand!!!!!!!!

[Doombz]

dubstep? MMMM!

[JenniferIsCoolBeanz]

I can write with both hands

but more with my left

[12345jovo]

i can write the circle whit left and triangle whit right at a same time..u will feel

the fight betwen two sides of brain ..try ..:)

[demurebrownsugar]

Please post a new video with your progress!!! This is a great start!!!Keep it up!!! Have you heard of the book called The Other Hand?????? I WAS LAUGHIN' IN MY LAST POST ....NOT TAUNTING....I RAN OUT OF LETTERS!!!

[demurebrownsugar]

Hiya! Have you thought of purchasing a 4th grade manuscript writing tablet?

I did and work my non dominant hand skills there...lines and scale are important aspects to eventually master. My left hand out paces my right hand, but when I take my time they are nearly identical. Even my signature is the same. I have been facing this challenge since I was a kid...getting better now. I also write backward messages with my left hand clearly & legibly especially when reflected against a mirror!!! Ha!

[blackflames4213]

you suck at both hands ((: joke ! (:

[ForeverImmature]

hahaha i like the random dubstep

[pithikoulis]

when I try to do this I feel like my right ear muting or something. Anyone else experiencing this?

[97Amister]

Im left handed !

[BloodyRSVids]

im trying to learn this so i can fuck up peoples minds

[MrBmxNoob]

Im also learning how to write lefty but for some reason when i write with my left hand my right hand seems to tense up. if anyone else has this issue thingy please comment back

[musicequalslife12]

Nice dubstep going on there xD

[assailantgamer]

you arent actually writing

you're more like drawing with your left

[ErrorUncertainty]

Good progress, but you really need more practice. I've had disabling RSI in my writing hand for 3 months now during a very busy part of a Physics degree, so I've learned quickly to write with the other out of necessity. I can write at enough speed to keep up in a phys lecture, and with 99.9% legibility. In a couple of weeks I'm thinking the RSI will have healed enough to reintroduce right hand... at the same time as writing with left ;). Youtube video if I manage it...

[julian44670]

Man, this left-handed dubstep action just made my day.

[SuperStomptheyard]

you are a right handed , you only learned to write with the left hand

[anyone584]

I just write "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog". It has all the letters.

[98bigbutt]

This person is originally Right-Handed.

[yourjefe]

why the hell did I just watch this?

[TheImpossibleKill]

@yourjefe because you want to learn how to write with your left hand?

[hearttshapeddboxx]

that was a good song XD

[y2kat2003]

What happened to the video update?

[PicoPicoHammah]

When people write, they usually move their fingers and not their whole hand

[pluckystar101]

i factured my right hand and arm, so im struggling to write with my left hand.

[1ockedand1oaded]

i'm learning too! (just so i can right essays out one line per hand (should improve my layout skills and speed up the process of putting my ideas in to words.). maybe one day i'll set up a duo-keyboard/monitor set-up..

ps what song is that? - i'd love to have it as a ringtone or something.

[xPalet5796x]

use your wrist not your arm, all your doing is moving your arm. Thats not going to work in the long run, coming from a lefty

[zmajce2angel]

@xPalet5796x yeah, just remember the time when you were learning to write :) all those ink-blotched pages. and hands..

[flamepheneix]

just a tip instead of writing with your whole hand use only the 3 fingers that grip the pen/pencil

[machpuncher]

i am ambidextrous and i love confusing people what is my dominant hand, especially in fencing, baseball and tennis

[BlackSpid3y]

I'm a left handed and i am trying to learn to write with my right hand so i can do faster with ... like say ... homework :-)

[Darknighte9]

I'm left handed learning how to write with right..

[Aawsy]

they way you write makes it look fun XD

[efee52]

why didn't you continue with these videos?

[CuMxONxMYxEyESxBaBy]

do you really need that music for what he's doing?

[efee52]

@CuMxONxMYxEyESxBaBy yes to make it come ce dice epic?

[Explinfin]

@CuMxONxMYxEyESxBaBy Yes I need that music! Dubstep is essential to life! :) It sure improved the quality of my video by about a thousand fold, wouldn't you agree?

[TheLorax11]

You never told us why we should learn to write with 2 hands... i just wasted 2:40 seconds of my life

[Aawsy]

@TheLorax11 umm he put it in description and you didnt have to watche it

[iFixie]

i can tell you're not naturally left handed :b us natural lefties write with our hands a bit slanted.

[crabcakes21]

My best letter with my left hand is C :D

[paulojunior201]

LOL, no finger is moving

[RepPhilly215]

LOL ... all arm and no fingers

[denisecarruth]

Where are all you all getting those pens from?

[100alvinandchipmunks]

try to write from right to left its a little easier

[Explinfin]

@100alvinandchipmunks

Thanks, I'll try that!

[Detoyato]

@Explinfin It is easier but its confusing. Hows it going BTW.

[HoofandHorn]

@100alvinandchipmunks I'm right-handed and when I write with my left hand it's very fluid, but backwards.

[Hayden1911]

lolz I can write perfectly left-handed...maybe because I am left-handed... lolz

[part1hey]

u need more pratice

[juliocesar188]

FUCK YOU!

[purebloodgirl1]

What's the song playing?

[AJninjuh]

your not even moving your fingers when writing with your left hand

[Shinoshi04]

@AJninjuh This might sound weird to you, but your not supposed to move your fingers much when writing. The way he is writing with his left, is actually closer to the proper form, than the bad habit of "drawing" the letters with your fingers. Proper writing form, that gives better penmanship, involves resting your hand lightly on the paper, while havin your forearm & shoulder move has you write, the fingers are just there as guides.

[AJninjuh]

@Shinoshi04 Ohh, ok. So basically you use most of your arm rather than using our fingers ?

[vikrantgoell]

well i think fingers are imp

even me trying to write with left hand since long now

it has improved but i write like a kindergarden kid

even i have problem wid fingers.. i just cant move them at all... even i have to move full hand...

[bugzbunny109]

Find a more comfortable way to hold the pen, and use your left hand more for things in general.
