A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

If you'd assume practically everyone (say, 95 % of people) are able to do something, and it turns out only 60 % can, then that already counts as shockingly rare. So, even though more than half of people can do something, and the ones who cannot are a minority, it can still be "shockingly rare" that people actually can do it.
In this case I'd guess it's entirely possible that only a third or a quarter of people are able to reasonably read the body language as told here. But, @theneverfox@pawb.social can give a better estimate of this than I can, I believe.
