I feel like I am the antithesis of this question.
When I was a kid, I had a difficult time learning how to whistle, and so I decided I would learn all of the "stupid human tricks" that I could, and now as an adult, I don't know of any common skill that I do not have at least an advanced beginner or intermediate level.
Maybe you can help me by identifying what you believe is a common skill and then I'll see if I know it or not and respond.
I don't know how to do those loud whistles without using fingers. Teach me, oh master!
It takes some practice and fiddling around to get it, but this guy does a really good job of explaining it

Ooo thank you! I can whistle really loudly with my fingers, but I’ve never got this down.
My front teeth have a significant space between them, seems like that might make it harder for me. I used to be able to do a low whistle with that space before I used braces lol
