When going through automatic doors with motion sensors, I like to do the Jedi hand wave to open it with the Force.  ;D Am I the only one?  ::)

Do this, I admit to.

I too, will admit to this. I'm a bit more subtle when doing so though. I bring my hand up to about mid-torso height and about 4-6 inches away, flick my wrist so my fingers are perpendicular to the door and wave them.

Hello Everyone,

Yes on occasion I have Jedi Force pushed a door!  I think I can go one better though, I live in a tower block with an electronic door control. It has an electronic keyfob and to enter you hold the fob near to the intercom panel. The fob activates the door mechanism and the doors swing open...you are probably ahead of me and know what  I'm going to say next. Yes I sometimes put the keyfob inside my glove so all I have to do is wave my hand past the intercom and the Force "opens" the door!  Great to entertain the younglings in my family (and passers-by) who don't know about the keyfob and try to wave the door open themselves!

(Yes small things amuse my small mind!)

For Tyeth

I also do this with traffic lights. Well, the ones I know the cycle times to...  ::)

What's with videos not working anymore? None throughout the forums are working for me. Just a black rectangle. Here's links.

Phew, thank god I'm not the only one that does this, I have company in my lunacy ;)

always do this

Not so much with auto doors. But if elevator doors are taking a while or traffic lights are being slow, or the computers are being slow, I'll do it. Also if there are idiots in the traffic I will do it and say something like 'you do not want to cut in front of me'

ALL THE TIME!! I do it when I want the remote, to traffic lights, I do this to my dog cuz he gets freaked out. I know he's gonna turn his head so I start to turn my hand slowly as he twists his head and body. I even hum the Burning Homestead song. I do tons of stuff. When I'm cutting lumber at work, I take whatever I have and either fight with walls, doors, or throw the scrap like weaponry. Yes, I have mental issues!

PSSHH! Hell no, nerd. I Sith hand it. All the time. It's less reliable on traffic signals. More so on slow drivers. Hasn't worked on a cop yep.

Ive always wanted to stop in the middle of a traffic intersection and pretend like I'm fighting another person, with either sticks or a choreographed fight. But some punk would try to citizens arrest us or something like that. I'd have to see what legally might happen if I did do that.

I haven't done this in a long time...

You mean, "Now, that's a thing I've not done...in a long time...a long time." ;)

I really only do that when I'm with nerd friends; on my own, it just feels weird. But I'm weird, so why should I care? :P

Have a point! :D

Yeah... Obi-Wan quote deserves a point too.  ;D

You would probably be cited for stopping in traffic, and doubtless be fined.

I always do this, partially because I walk faster than most doors open, so if I can trip the sensor sooner, I don't have to slow down while the door opens.  But mostly because it's fun.

I always wave with the hand when an automatic door opens...

I actually did this the other day and the door didn't budge. Out of order. I'm sure nobody saw... :-\

Eyes don't always deceive you. Trust them when you see an OOO sign. :P

Sith constructs often require that you use your anger to operate them, but their guardians are fierce. Be wary.

Perhaps you're not as strong as the emperor thought..

I usually Force Push incoming cars when I cross the street.

I forgot I also use Force Pull to slow cars so I can pass, and Push to "help" drivers use the accelerator. ;D

Saw this thread and had to post! My friend Luke made this video a while back... You should subscribe to his channel.

lol don't ask

I'm not sure if I feel better or if I feel worse.  ;D :-X :-\ :'( ::) :-[  8)

Point Iram

Luke!... Luke!... Now you go to the Dagobah sytem... :D
Brilliant clip, and yes, a lot of doors I opened with the Force. However that one today in the mall didn't work :P

It's a mix, haha. Thanks, likewise.


I thought it was ironic that his name is Luke. Glad you enjoyed it, and not every automatic door is force sensitive

Ok, I for sure did this plenty as a kid! No joke, it was too much fun sometimes...

Should of known you'd be poking around resurrecting old threads like this.....

*cuts down Star Wars version of Skyrim Draugr in this thread*  Now look what you've woken up....

By the way, share any Holocron you find.  I need them.  For Science.

And of course I hand wave doors open.  I AM a force user....

I'm guilty

only take care to limit your push force
