6 fingered people

See it alive in the news

PolyDactyly
Mishna Bechoros 45 when is an extra finger a kocher Cohen?

Goliath had 24 fingers 1 Chronicles 20:5-8a In another battle with the Philistines, Elhanan son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver's rod. 6 In still another battle, which took place at Gath, there was a huge man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot - twenty-four in all. He also was descended from Rapha. 7 When he taunted Israel, Jonathan son of Shimea, David's brother, killed him. 8 These were descendants of Rapha in Gath, and they fell at the hands of David and his men. (NIV)
