This baby was born with 6 fingers ever. I was convinced he was a alien, but humans can has irregular fingers too.
NEWS:
Kamani Hubbard was recently born with 12 fully developed (and functional) fingers and toes. I'm jealous -- I was born with a nubbin next to my left pinky and they cut it off at birth. But the nipple on my back is still there. Nice one, doc.
"It's merely an interesting and beautiful variation rather than a worrisome thing," said Dr. Michael Treece and St. Luke's Hospital Pediatrician. "I would be tempted to leave those fingers in place. I realize children would tease each other over the slightest things, and having extra digits on each hand is more than slight. But imagine what sort of a pianist a 12-fingered person would be. Imagine what sort of a flamenco guitarist. If nothing else, think of their typing skills."
"I just want him to see what greatness will be in store for him," said the baby's proud father.
Greatness, huh -- like being an illustrious blogger? I AM TEH L337 P4WNR OF INTERWEBZ!

I can type fast with one hand, it's worse if you have 12 fingers since QWERTY layout is designed for 10 fingers only.

Wow, that's unusual.
Usually when you see people with extra fingers/toes, they're all shrunk and aren't fully developed.
I guess it'd be pretty cool to have 6 fingers.

Poor kid, he'll never be able to put on gloves or do the finger.

Don't people with extra fingers/toes just get them removed?

I wonder what would happen if at school the teacher said that humans had 5 fingers in each hand while teaching about the human body:O

He'd make a bigger, stronger punch. He'd have better grip. He'd own us all. I bet he would grow up to be a good driver. But, he wouldn't know what the extra fingers would be called.

I hope he doesn't pull a E.T. on us.
I wonder what he'll put that extra finger to use?
LOL

I wanna see him play an instrument. Guitar would be easier for him if his extra finger is as strong as others.
It will be hard for him to type.

Completely normal. Though most babies with that problem have surgery to get them removed.
That kid is going to get beat up so bad. ;[ I feel bad for him.

At least he'll be able to play guitar hero without having to move his hand to reach the orange fret! :scootz:

Humans do have 5 fingers. Its called a genetic mutation.
Polydactyly. One of my all time favorite words. I love mispronouncing it.

Well, humans do have 5 fingers but this human isa exception to the rule. He doesn't stop being a human only because he has 6 fingers:rolleyes:

A human is not defined having 5 fingers that is just the standard number.
Genetic mutations happen all the time, noticeable and not.
