No we all don't do it. It is weird butttttttt am extremely intrigued now and plan on doing this. Lol,wait. I would feel a bit insulted if a person smelt their hands after a hand shake with me and not sure I want to do it now.

Never done that myself. My first thoughts after a handshake usually are:
- Does this person wash his/her hands after using the bathroom?
- What was the last thing they touched, and do I want to put that up to my nose with no idea what it was?
The only time I actually ever bring my hand up to my nose after a handshake is if my nose itches and I decide to rub it off with the back of my hand. Or scratch it. Obviously, the other person will probably realized they just shook hands with someone who scratches/rubs their nose so they'll either clean their hands, or don't.
Otherwise, maybe what the video is claiming is actually something we do subtly while the video shows it being done explicitly.

Hmm. I meet new people in my work OFTEN. I have been interviewing fairly regularly recently as well. I notice grip, eye contact and body posture but I don't recall any huffing of paws afterwards BUT I will try to make a mental note next time to see if any such thing occurs...with me or the other party.You're never too old to learn NuTrix ^_~

I don't like shaking people's hands actually. It just feels really weird and awkward and inauthentic to me. Also, research suggests that while most women (4.5 out of 5 I think) do wash their hands after visiting the bathroom, only 1 in 5 men do the same. Blatantly disgusting. I wouldn't want to sniff my hand after shaking someone else's. I'm more likely to just head straight for the alcohol hand gel stuff.

I can't say that I have ever smelled my hand after a handshake, but like where it is going in terms of learning about who we just met. This is the reason we are all here.Just expanded my collection.... XiSt, Cohesion, Bliss, and Evolve. Trying out the massage oils too. Also have samples of Ascend, Thinker, and Connections.

This is the original study: http://elifesciences.org/content/4/e05154
And this is the blog post that introduced me to it, back in March: http://www.spring.org.uk/2015/03/peo...akes-sniff.php
Everyone seems really weirded out, but it's really not that surprising. The actual sniffing isn't something we do consciously, remember? You probably don't count the number of time you scratch their nose/adjust your hair/rest your chin on your hand each day. I see guys resting their thumb against their lower lip sometimes, when they're listening or thinking... Just another one of those mindless, fidgety things you do, that could double as an opportunity for your brain to covertly register new odours/pheromones.. In any case, it's good news for us!"My motto as I live and learn: dig, and be dug in return!"
