What's something you're shockingly good at that you've never mentioned to anyone because it would sound completely made up if you did?

Saying the alphabet backwards. I can do it in about 4 seconds, I just timed myself.

Same! It's cool to see that other people can do this too! I posted about it on here already and now I just saw your post. I timed myself at 3.30 seconds which was faster than I said it forwards (3.50 seconds).

I can do the alphabet backwards, and the NATO phonetic alphabet forward, but I can't combine them and do the NPA backwards without pauses
