It is also the reason why no one can do it. It's not a matter of practice or dedication or effort. If your elbow can't double extend, you can't do the dance...no matter how well you can dance otherwise.
I have noticed it, but I never got around to making a post about it. It is very evident in the En Concert DVD when she waves to the audience. When I first noticed it I laughed out loud because I'm double-jointed too. But trust me, that doesn't mean I can dance like her...
