Answer:
I feel all tingly and it feels really cool.
Answer: Hitting the inside of your elbow (on your funny bone) will produce a tingling or prickly kind of dull pain running down to your fingers.
The bump at that end of your elbow is the end of a bone, the "humerus", but what produces the feeling is the ulnar nerve which passes over it. That's what you hit to get the feeling. If you've watched any Martial Arts movies or Mr. Spock on Star Trek you know that pinching a nerve can have strange effects.
Aside: There are two thoughts on why it's called a funny bone:
* One group thinks its called "funny" because of the weird feeling, and it's identified as a "bone" because of the hard bump under your skin. * Other folks think it's called a "funny" bone because some early punster heard the bone was a "humerus" and corrupted the word to "humorous" a cheap joke.
Answer:
This is a different user from the ones above.
Some people say they feel a slight tingling or strange feeling, but I usually feel a numbing shock in my forearm for about 5 seconds. It varies from person to person.
