I recently heard that the nerves controlling the pinkie and ring finger are intertwined to the degree that it’s almost impossible for most people to move the pinkie and ring fingers without the other. Does it count as “independent” if one twitches while the other does the real moving? I think I may finally be special!
Ring finger and middle finger isn’t it? If you place your hand on a flat surface and tuck your middle finger under itself your ring finger has issues moving.
Place your hand palm down on a flat surface (like a table).
Put your middle finger under your palm, leaving your other fingers outstretched. (Kind of like throwing the heavy metal horns, but with only the middle finger tucked in)
You can probably lift your index finger or pinkie finger up alone no problem. Lifting your ring finger alone will probably be hard, if not impossible, as long as you keep your middle finger tucked under your palm.
Curling either my pinkie or my middle finger also causes my ring finger to curl. Curling my ring finger doesn’t affect my pinkie or middle finger, though.
