How many bone are in a adult hand?

Answer 1

27, and... 8 in wrist, 19 in hand and fingers

Which would make 27. Now, consider this-h is the eighth letter of the alphabet, a is the first, n is the fourteenth, and d is the fourth.

8+1+14+4=27 (H+A+N+D=27)

Rather odd, I must say.

According to this, human hands only have 26 bones...
