Old Goosebump Arm, or OGA as I like to call her (she calls me DBDB), is my favorite character in this series.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - ole’ Goosbump Arms is the best in the game! 😂

I have always been a huge fan of old goosebump arm

I'd have listened to a really good song, I get goosebumps when I listen to music.

I submit that Alex using Old Goosebump Arms, and everyone knowing who he is talking about stands as the verification that she should be awarded 5 points and first place for this task. Add to that, the fact that it is so tied to her, Lord Greg only knows her by that name now. "Victoria and Gus... Who? Old Goosebump Arms and Gus"

Shout out to Ole Goosebumps Arms. 💐

Exactly how retroactive would the awarding of points be for Ol' Goosebump Arm? Enough to warrant an edited post-script onto the existing episode perhaps? I think we could make this happen.

As only Ol' Goosebump Arm can

I love tasks with Ol' Goosebump Arm!

1. Get my phone and earbuds. 2. Plug in any music from Hans Zimmer. 3. Get goosebumps in 2 seconds flat.

Am I the only one who can make myself get goosebumps just by thinking about it? It's like a wave from my neck that you sort of pulsate down towards your arms and lower body. I can only do it a few times before I need to recharge and wait a few minutes in order to do it again. And it can't be too hot outside either.

in my language, we don't call it goosebumps, but what would translate to "chicken flesh" or "chicken meat" sooooooooooooo I'd argue Alan nailed it

Old Goosebump Arm is the best contestant!

Lots of music that I like give me massive goosebumps, is this weird? I paused the video after I heard the task, searched for Aniron and skipped ahead a little. I had goosebumps all over my arm (and down my back and leg) after like 20 seconds. I also tried with Gollum's Song (LotR), For the Love of a Princess (Braveheart), Across the Stars (Star Wars), The Wheat (Gladiator). Some of these I have massive goosebumps after less than 10 seconds, all of them in less than 30 seconds.

I am actually most surprised how little the contestants know their body. I have three sure ways of getting goose bumps on command. Getting chilled is the long winded one, scratching around my back, there are a few great spots. Or running a feather or something light to the touch on certain parts of my skin, but I know exactly how and what. Takes just seconds. Very interesting task!

@bluemark25

I can get goosebumps by thinking about the back of my neck being tingley

I read the title and figured out I can get goosebumps on command. Its not warm today though lol. I just think of how a good song makes me feel, instant chills.

I'm sitting in a heated room with a warm hoodie right now.. and I still have goosebumps. I think I'd nail this task 😂

Press 8 for the start of the "Ole Goosebump Arm" Era

Classic Old Goosebump Arms performance here

I got goosebumps watching this at 2 minutes. Even more than old goosebump arms.

All I have to do is very lightly brush my fingers along my arms or back and I get instant goosebumps. I do it to myself all the time cause the "tingles" feel good.

Gotta love ol goose bump arms tenacity on this challenge

I want some full episodes again

Man. I suck at pretty much everything, but I could have totally won this. I can get goosebumps pretty consistently on demand.

Please do a Taskmaster fan favorite/redemption series where contestants that did not win but were well liked are voted upon by fans and can compete again. Maximum one person from a series. For example, my ideal lineup is: James Acaster Mel Giedroyc Nish Kumar Mike Wozniak Asim Chaudhry Please consider this!

Nobody went for music? Thats instant goosebumps

So, retroactively speaking... "Old goosebump arm" is now a highly searched google, can the Taskmaster please at some point go back to see if this would change the scores in any meaningful way? (LETS GET THIS COMMENT UP SO THE TASKMASTER SEE´S IT)

i think I have gotten goosebumps maybe 3 times in my life

I would have scratched the task. My finger nails running on paper always gives me instant goosebumps

Is it an unusual ability to just be able to give yourself goosebumps at-will? Because I can. And I've never even thought about until now.

My first instinct was "music will probably play a role in this task". I can now say that it took me two other choruses before, but the one in "Mother We Share" from Chvrches got me the intended goosebumps.

Ice water dumped over the head, instant goosebumps, no marker required.

My initial thought was to jump in the shower, stand under water as hot as you can, make sure to get your hair really wet, then run outside. If you don't think the goosebumps will last for you to get back in the lab, take a picture while inside and show it in the lab.

I can give myself goosebumps on command, I just have to think of "my heart will go on" playing over that scene in game of thrones when Jon snow and his crew are on the island in the frozen lake and the white walkers are coming then danaerys comes in with the dragons and saves the day

It's easy to give yourself goosebumps! Can't everyone do that?

Just slide your finger across the inside of your arm, across where the joint for the elbow is. Usually when I do that I get goose bumps.

Time to tweet "Hi, old goosebump arms" at Mrs C-M, I guess.

Is just drag metal between my teeth thatll get me there

If I imagine the song "Great Gig in the Sky" by Pink Floyd, I can get Goosebumps on command.

I just would've listened to a sad song (probably hold on by chord overstreet) or breathed through my nose onto my arm while thinking about sending a shiver down my spine

Simply thinking about the ending song from the film Gladiator is enough to give me goosebumps.

what about simply googling a picture of goosebumps?

Oh, isn't that the infamous Old Gosebump Arm?
