It is not possible for one to be double jointed. If one can bend their back, leg, elbow, thumb, etc. in strange ways, then they might think that they are double jointed, but they aren't. It is just easier for them to bend their joints than other people.
As the previous answerer stated, it is not possible to be double jointed (unless of course you had a strange birth defect in which an extra vestigial joint was made during your conception). The actual scientific term for "double-jointedness" is hyper-flexibility, the ability for a body part to flex, or bend, more freely than normal body parts.

Can you be double jointed in your tongue?
The term "double-jointed" is a misnomer and not medically accurate. What people commonly refer to as being double-jointed is actually increased flexibility or hypermobility in the joints due to various factors such as genetics or training. The tongue is a muscular organ and does not have joints like the rest of the body, so it cannot be double-jointed in the traditional sense. However, some individuals may have increased flexibility in their tongue muscles, allowing them to perform unique movements or shapes with their tongue.
What can double jointed people do?
People who are double-jointed, or hypermobile, typically have greater flexibility in their joints than the average person. This may allow them to perform tricks or contort their bodies in ways that others cannot. However, it is important for double-jointed individuals to be cautious as being hypermobile can also lead to an increased risk of joint injuries.

What does a double jointed wrist look like?
Hmm... Well, it's slightly indistinguishable from a normal wrist at a fast glance, or even stare. You can do one out of two things to figure out if your wrist is double jointed. Method 1: The rest of your body. Most likely if your wrist is double jointed, some other body parts are too, such as the fingers and arm. Try bending your fingers far back, but if they start to hurt stop immediately! Also, you can try to touch your thumb to the same wrist. Method 2: There are things you can do to determine if you are double jointed in the wrist. If your wrist starts to hurt badly while doing any of these tricks, stop quickly and rest it. Or, set your arm down, with your elbow on a table. Now, turn your palm to touch the table, leaving your elbow against the table also. My sources?

Not necessarily. Although non-double-jointed people find the flexibility of double-jointed people appalling, it is a natural occurrence. It is just an ability that you were born with that others don't have, and since others don't have it, they find anything that they don't have appalling and 'gross'. Thus, being double-jointed is not gross, but a rather useful asset.
