i can do a similar thing thusly: go cross-eyed, then look to the extreme left or right (with both eyes). one eye should remain looking at your nose while you do that. then, go cross-eyed again and then look to the extreme left/right again (but opposite of what you did before).

the effect is of a couple of bouncing balls (a bit like those hanging steel balls you see in desk ornaments).

alternatively, you can keep one eye looking at your nose while the other bounces left and right.

I can do that, better than you.

Okay, sorry to comment twice in a row (even though it’s been days since I last commented) but I have to give this link to you.

If you can do that with your eyes, you’re awesome.

Ha! That’s great stuff! I taught myself how to do that by accident a few years ago and it never fails to freak people out when I look at them with just one eye crossed.

If anyone wants to train themselves (I’m not sure why you would want to really!), just tell them to follow their finger in front of their eyes. Kind of like the way nurses or doctors (or policemen) do. Put your index finger about an inch away from your nose, make both eyes focus on your finger, then move your finger to either side straight in front of each eye. Hold your finger there and notice that only one eye is crossed. Keep staring at that same spot and move your finger away. TADA! Now the trick is to be able to do that with your eyes without the use of your finger.

Okay, now my eyes hurt from doing it too much while writing this…
