The classic high fives people all around the world have come to know and love! Demonstrated here on highfive.me.uk complete with video clips and advice for executing your high fives so they conform to the International Standard for High Fives!

Some of the weird and wonderful variations on the high five which have developed over the years. Some are from TV shows, films or books, whereas details of others were e-mailed to us from all corners of the globe. There are videos demonstrating most of these so you can get your technique down and use these high fives yourself.

High Fives that take place without contact taking place. How is this possible? Through the miracle of technology, that's how (or by waving your hands in the air).

Here are some high five related things people have told us about which aren't really high fives, but deserve a mention.

This list of High Fives is by no means complete, we're looking to add to it all the time. If you know of any other types of High Five email them to us at e-five@highfive.me.uk

If you have any great pictures or videos of you high fiving we'd like them too. Maybe you've high-fived a celebrity (the more minor and washed up the better); or high fived in an extreme place - like a volcano or the moon. Anyway send them them to us and we'll make you famous! Sort of.
