Phil wouldn't have to worry about developing carpal tunnel syndrome from extensive piano practice. Any physical damage his body suffers would be undone by the following time loop. So he could actually spend four or more hours per day practicing the piano. Or any new skill fr that matter.

He learns a whole new language, learns to flawlessly play piano and master ice sculpting during the loop. He was easily there AT LEAST 50 years. It takes someone at least 10 years to master just one thing, so it doesn’t exactly take a rocket scientist to work out he’s stuck in the loop for an obscene number of decades.

Imagine learning to play the guitar, but without the benefit of callouses that eventually make playing less painful to your fingertips.

Carpal tunnel isn't an issue when you're stuck in literally the same 24 hour span repeatedly as each day resets your body back to it's original condition that you started the loop in. Thus, he could study and play piano for 40 years, playing 2 to 3 hours a day, and it wouldn't affect him in the next loop. Additionally, when it comes to the Chiropractor bit, what's to say that he didn't just play around and get lucky when cracking the guy's back? He may not have studied at all and just found through trial and error how to not paralyze Felix.

He also had to have his conversation with Rita so many times that he has every step of the conversation down pat. On top of all that, he had to spend enough time developing and maintaining his skills. Conservatively I would say that he was in that day loop for hundreds of years.

“Muscle memory” is really a misnomer for building the automatic response at a mental level, though of course that involves training the nervous system. I’d argue that he carries that portion of his being across each day. The mind/body separation needs be drawn somewhere in this story, since the “mind” still has roots in physical being. Aside from piano, many of his other skills/experiences require the same development in order to be justifiable within the rules of that universe. I definitely agree with you that he wouldn’t sustain any overuse injuries, and could practice for 12 hours a day if he likes without any physical ramifications. As a pianist, I also contend that with cognizance of proper playing technique, risk for overuse injuries for extended sessions are at a minimum.

His body and mind must get used to the loop and normalize it, so that it doesnt feel weird and unusual anymore, only then can he start to rebuild his new GOD persona, when it doesnt conflict with his previous normal life anymore

I would just like to point out that the town which stood in for Punxsutawney was Woodstock, Illinois and the Jeep commercial filmed back in the same square. There is a plaque on the corner where Ned Ryerson (Stephen Toblowsky) meets with Phil (Bill Muray)

Great video! That's one of my favorite movies. I always wandered how long he was stuck in that loop. I had the impression that it was decades, but not centuries.

If the math is right, it might not be such a bad fate to be stuck seeing Andie McDowell every day for over 33 years, especially if she doesn't age.

Well, in the '90s, it was possible to get WWF tickets at a store that was associated with Ticketmaster. A town like Puxatani would feasibly have a record store or the like to purchase them, since it is a short distance from Pittsburgh.

At 4:37 Ash says that Phil would have had a hard time sourcing a Rolls Royce in small-town Punxatawney. Actually, the car is a Mercedes Benz. Much easier to locate than a Rolls Royce, but maybe still pretty difficult in Punxatawney.

Something you don't seem to have factored in because of the carpal tunnel comment... Phil doesn't need to sleep. He can go none stop because we have seen him stay up through to the flip.. also, Phil can be doing more than one thing in a day. So he could learn poetry in the same day that he is learning piano and all the rest. 8 years could hold up but it seems to have taken him a long time to get to the point where he was focused on learning.

ooh, may I watch this video over and over again? I have a revelation ... and that is this repeating of days is analogous to aging ... waking up day by day going to work over and over again, slowly over time learning what is less important than other things ... and over time the ego finally letting it go giving up the tight grip on the machinations of mice and men ... and thus over sheer experience through countless repetition gains a semblance of wisdom.

hmm I have another comment realizing something else. The first time I saw the movie I thought it was a waste to actually move and live in Punxsutawney . . . but now with this revelation of how many days he actually invested in the town repeating the same day over and over again but learning almost everything about the town and its people then now it makes sense that he wouldn't want to be anywhere else. He has invested so much time and have come to accept the minutia of everyday life that he would want to see how it turns out, to see what happens to the town and its residents, yes it had become his home his demesne ... and his hearth of hearts.

According to Danny Rubin, who wrote the screenplay and created the entire concept of the film, Phil Connors lived the same day for 10,000 years. That's what I'll stick with.

30 years in one day? It can be beautiful. I'm starting learn drums and music in 25 years from zero. It's hard but it is so fascinating, learning art is the most beautiful thing. BUT, after 5 years of learning I've realize that i can't go forward anymore: i need to pay bills, sustain family, it take all my time. In situation like Phil you didn't need to do this "bills game" you have oportunity to take pure art lessons without thinking about what to eat, where to live. More of that, you can learn in your personal tempo. I'm the person who needs much more time to get "the lesson" then others. School was pain for me. And life is more like survival thing for me, I'm not a person who teach new things fast and easy I'm hardly opposite to it. So it's great opportunity to freeze time like in the movie and go to learn in your own tempo. Ofcourse if you will be free in some day, like Phil at the and of movie. When i was in school and first time watch the movie i thoght "i wish can have same opportunity and time to learn". Cheers.
