Just wondering if it has happened to anyone being able to move his/her eyelashes up and down. Voluntarily or not.

That is eyelid movement not eyelash.

Koorosh, do you maybe mean eyebrows? And independently from each other? Just wondering.

Last time I looked my eyelashes were connected to my eyelids, so they both move at the same time.

That is what i mean by eyelash! Moving those hairs independently from skin (eyelid).

I get what he means now. Really moving each eyelash, i.e. separate hairkin growing out of your eyelid, independently from the lid itself.
Like a porcupine shooting quills.
The Germans have this saying, "Ich reiss mir eine Wimper aus und stech dich damit tot!"
(I will put out an eyelash and stab you with it.)

I think he means keeping your eyelid still and moving the lashes relative to the lids. I've never heard of anyone able to do that, is it even possible? I've felt mine twitching a few times, but I never checked if they were actually moving.

Your question states voluntarily or NOT, moving them with your eyelid would be included in the or NOT part, wouldn't it? I can move them with my finger as well

if you felt them twitch wouldn't it probably be a muscle or something in the eyelid causeing it since an eyelash is hair and hair is dead and cannot move on it's on.

Yeh probably, but the hairs on your arm can move when you get cold, so... it just felt like the eyelash was moving, maybe the base of the hair is next to the muscle or something?

Did you know if you keep your eyelids open when you sneeze, your eyeballs will shoot out of your head?

Don't think I'll test that theory JL.

Did you know that if you sneeze eight times in a row you will have an orgasm?

Now that one I might try.

It'd be a great party trick though, wouldn't it? Especially if you had a glass eye.

A woman says to her friend "every time I sneeze I have an orgasm".
The friend says "what are you taking for it?".
The woman replies, "pepper".
Boom boom.

that would be amazing because you could curl your own lashes!

Same thing with a guinea pig: Pick it up by its tail and its eyes fall out.

No, I could never find the tail. And as a little girl (when I had a guinea pig) I didn't fancy grabbing anything else.
