We study the probability that the origin is connected to the sphere of radius r (an arm event) in critical percolation in high dimensions, namely when the dimension d is large enough or when d>6 and the lattice is sufficiently spread out. We prove that this probability decays like 1/r2. Furthermore, we show that the probability of having k disjoint arms to distance r emanating from the vicinity of the origin is 1/r2k.
