Classic Sesame Street - Hands Count to 11

[barkon]

When I was little I had a horrible nightmare that four of those hands held me down while a bunch more pulled my mom into the wall. Dang, it's still creepy!

Sound more like a happy new year at the end.

Purple and Green both must be double jointed or something. I can not bend my fingers the way they do.

Why didn't they just count to 15 with the orange hand.

I always felt the hands were going to grab me through the TV. This skit just gave me the creeps lol

@LUVZEP77 I was scared the gloves were going to tickle me when I saw this as a kid :) weird, huh?

[LUVZEP77]

This scared me as a kid.

How come? Was it because the kids counting sound like robots?

I had forgotten about the Hands... until I was a bridesmaid and had to wear these long green gloves! And they were MINT green. Too funny!

I remember this.

I always thought the 3rd hand was giving the sarcastic whoop-dee-doo finger twirl at the end.

I remember the confetti and cheers at the end of this. Like the 'There Once Was a Hand' clip that shows that you need two hands to clap, this clips shows that you need THREE hands to count to 11! Just being clever!

Yellow hand to orange hand: "Come here, look this way, shut your mouth, stand up straight, & don't you dare move!"
