Helicopter - ER Am I missing something? LOL
I highly recommend House if you like diagnostic medicine. After each episode I have list of things to look up in my textbooks, so you can argue that it's educational.

A character in ER had his arm dismembered by a helicopter propeller, then was crushed by a second helicopter later on in the series. At that point I decided the show was too soapy for my liking.

Both my eyes are green with a ring of brown around the pupil. Apparently that's kinda rare but top that off with 2 completely different coloured eyes...

I've got this genetic thing where my upper arm above the elbow right up to the shoulders, my skin has this weird thing where it feels slightly goosebumped and has pink spots that look slightly like acne, nowhere near as bad looking as if I did have bad acne up my arms though.

My shoulders are not aligned correctly. I'm not really sure if I was born with it or if they were a result from my fall (basement concrete ).

Doesn't hurt at all though it's visible when I wear tshirts.

Somebody mentioned they have a lump in their earlobe. I have that too, but it's from where I pierced my own ear a few months ago. I hope it'll disappear.
Other than that, I can bend my left middle finger back at a 45 degree angle at the second knuckle (from a rugby injury).
My spine bends to the left. All the toes on my left foot, and the big toe on my right foot crack when I walk.
And one of my earlobes is attached, while the other isn't.
I also have abnormally large big and second toes, which I can almost manipulate like fingers.
