      Nope but I could probably get close! There looks like a lot of bones but a lot of them have the same name like all of your phlanges

      No! Although I could name many of them I wouldn’t be able to name them all.

      I don’t think I would do very well at naming them all, there are just so many! For example, did you know there are 8 bones just in the wrist ?!?

      Hmmmm no probably not! I know quite a lot of them but would definitely forget some and a lot of them have quite silly names! You even have tiny bones in the middle of your ear and your back is made up of 33 bones!

      No, but I could name all the bigger ones. You have two in your neck call the Atlas and Axis! 🙂
