NASA's Curiosity-rover team celebrate with high fives after the landing on Mars, August 2012. Variations seen include: the two-handed high-five; the top-shake swagger; the high-five gauntlet; the air-five; the high-five left hanging.[1]

The high five is a hand gesture whereby two people simultaneously raise one hand and slap the flat of their palm against the other.[2] The gesture is often preceded verbally by a phrase like "Give me five", "High five", or "Up top". Its meaning varies with the context of use but can include as a greeting, congratulations, or celebration.

There are many origin stories of the high five,[3] but the first and two most documented candidates are Dusty Baker and Glenn Burke of the Los Angeles Dodgers professional baseball team on October 2, 1977, and Wiley Brown and Derek Smith of the Louisville Cardinals men's college basketball team during the 1978–1979 season.[4][5]
