Really, since I establish out about this ive examined alot of peoples hands including my parents from driving. Everyone has bent/bent fingers to some degree, the vast majority of them NO WHERE NEAR the people in this video BUT they are bent/bent to some degree including mine.

Does that mean I’ll stop playing? not a chance ;D

I can Guarantee you’re hands are not fine, we have similar gaming history and my pointer/middle finger are curved. Is it noticeable? yes.

Does it bother me? not a chance. Majority of peoples hands are bent ive personally experimental it. Does that change anything? nope I’ll still game

My pinkies are bent from typing, since I place pressure on the outer side of my hands when I type. Perhaps I’ll change my habits just in case =]

It will eventually bother you and interfer with your skill to perform phusical tasks. The terrible part is your thumbs…you will lose the use of them when grasping items of weight. I’m sorry… Mike

Thanks megamanzer0 for being opened minded. The amusing thing about this is the stiff steering on vehicles became well loved at the same time video gaming did.
Stiff steering and video gaming inflict deformities to the hands surrounded by a few weeks. Adults compare their driving deformed fingers to their children’s deformed video gaming fingers…and say theirs are the same as mine My child does not have a problem What a mess!
