Dan Rad showing off his special tongue skills

After a bizarre interview on Spanish television Daniel Radcliffe is certain to get tongues wagging after his latest stunt.

The Harry Potter star is used to having camera trickery help him complete scenes but there was no magic needed on Monday when he appeared on the Spanish TV show El Hormiguero.

The 22-year-old revealed a strange talent when he managed to manipulate his tongue into three very different positions.


Cheeky: Daniel Radcliffe makes an appearance on the Spanish TV show El Hormiguero and shows off his talented tongue


During his promotional trip to Madrid, Spain, where he was talking about his new movie The Woman in Black, the British actor showed off his three-pronged attack on national television.

In front of a studio audience he held up his right hand and counted with his fingers as he displayed his odd hidden talent.

The surprised host watched on as Radcliffe folded his tongue three times and the audience cheered on wildly.


Number two: Radcliffe strikes a second strange pose for the cameras before his big finish

In The Woman in Black, he plays a young solicitor haunted by a vengeful ghost, and the film stormed the UK box office over the weekend taking £3.15million in between Friday and Sunday.

It saw off main rival The Muppets, which had to settle for second place with a debut weekend £2.65million.

Director, James Watkins, told the BBC he was 'thrilled that a British ghost story, made with a British cast, crew and investment, is playing so well with British audiences'.


Three is the magic number: The former Harry Potter star unveiled his bizarre tongue skills on national television

Despite his attempts to cut an acting path away from his most famous role, Daniel admitted that he would still be upset if a new Harry Potter movie was to be made without him.

The actor, who is estimated to have earned upwards of £52million from the Potter film franchise, spoke to fansshare.com about a possible remake of the successful Hogwarts set saga.

He said: 'In the inevitable remakes, I've decided I'd quite like to play James Potter.'


It's a kind of magic: Daniel was full of laughs while on the Spanish TV show to promote The Woman in Black


Superstar: Daniel hits the red carpet at the Spanish premiere of The Woman In Black, dressed as an English gentleman

He also admitted to Den Of Geek recently that he hated watching his own movies because he is so critical of his own performance.

He said: 'I hate watching myself. But I know I have to watch it because I know I’m going to be asked about it, so I need to have some semblance of knowing what the film is like.

'It’s not an enjoyable experience watching yourself. I hate it less than I used to, but I still don’t enjoy it.

'Being self-critical is good, begin self-hating is destructive. There’s a very fine line there somewhere, and I walk it carefully.'


International man of mystery: Daniel is besieged by Spanish fans at the premiere in Madrid, Spain

everytime i see a guy with long nails i think of my male friend that told me he didn't trim his nails and he slice the head of his dick and the lube made it sting. why he had to share that is beyond me but now it's all i can think about regarding dudes and nails, haha.

I was the only one in my 7th grade science class that couldn't roll their tongue. Apparently tongue rolling is a dominant trait. ):
[info]w0rds0fl0ve 15th-Feb-2012 03:27 pm (UTC)
i learned i could in 7th grade too! only it was in spanish class and i was one of the few that could pronounce "rr" correctly. /csb

You're not alone! I was that lonely kid in biology too.

I also couldn't taste the bitter junk. Apparently I'd die out in nature because I'd be eating all kinds of bitter berries and shit. /biological failure
[info]queenweasley 15th-Feb-2012 07:05 pm (UTC)
I didn't realize I could do it til 9th grade biology. Neither of my parents nor my sister can do it..

[info]childish 15th-Feb-2012 03:26 pm (UTC)
I have a fondness for Daniel Radcliffe because I'm pretty sure if I were famous and wealthy I'd basically be him. Drama-less random shit.

I'm jealous of anyone who can do the third one.

IDK why, but I am.
[info]xdecadentx 15th-Feb-2012 03:32 pm (UTC)
Also I'm going to see Woman In Black tonight, and I am excited.
[info]scrabble 15th-Feb-2012 06:06 pm (UTC)
I can do it and no one ever seems the slightest bit interested, which was always a source of great disappointment to me.
[info]evangelion 15th-Feb-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
