- A finger snap produces one of the fastest rotational motions known in the human body, almost as fast as some professional baseball pitchers’ arms. Finger snaps last only about seven milliseconds — that’s roughly 20 times as fast as the blink of an eye. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/finger-snap-physics-new-high-speed-video-thanos 23 comments science
