    For the longest time I couldn't whistle, not even a little. Family and friends told me if I kept practicing I would eventually get the hang of it.
    Now, 27 years and hours of practice later, I can proudly say that they were wrong. I still can't whistle.

    I can't whistle. Never could. One day, during a visit to the doctor about snoring, he noticed that my tongue's frenulum (the little stringy fiber that connects my tongue to the bottom of my mouth) was unusually far forward. As it turns out, I'm not simply bad at whistling, I am actually physically incapable of it. Thanks, science!

    • @TechSupportDave
      @TechSupportDave 6 лет назад +6

      yes because pushing your tongue as far down as you can or as far as it can go to the top will definitely move their frenulum forward to allow for whistling. wow dude, thanks for your wise wisdom and guidance.

    • @bucketspree4952
      @bucketspree4952 6 лет назад +10

      it looks like she is making her tongue long, thin and rigid to allow for each side of her mouth to act as a resonating chamber
      she's probably also doing weird stuff with her cheek and throat muscles to control the pitch
      I don't know for certain just kind of guessing
      if you have a wide tongue you might not be able to do that
      or it might take a while to learn how to control the muscles for that position

    there is something beautiful about seeing people from different races and ethnicity and diverse backgrounds getting along, and bonding with each other over something that seems to be so silly to many others.
    It seems like the world is so divided political and accusations of racism, at least on the internet.
    Its very refreshing to see everyone so happy to just do something they enjoy.
    If there was more passion about silly things in the world, perhaps people could get along more. connecting with someone different than yourself and seeing them as another human and not just a black man, or a white or asian man, or republican or democrat, we could all just be whistlers someday.

    The lady said she whistles to handle her anxiety made me tear up a little. As a veteran I searched for things to “on the spot” downgrade my anxiety. Whistling is one of my methods, as it brings me back from the expanded issues in my mind day to day. Now, my oldest daughter has caught on, so anytime she hears me whistle we “whistle-talk”. This is no Sylbo mind you, but she knows it calms me down and we have fun with it. With the help of my children this has become one of the most powerful grounding methods that I’ve found for myself. It works for me to pull myself out of aforementioned expanded issues and plants me right where I should be, whistling with two amazing young ladies.

    I used to live in Louisburg!! The Whistlers Convention has since shut down due to the death of the gentleman who organized it (the man at 2:47) Mr. De Hart was a huge part of the Louisburg community, funding and organizing a lot of big events. (If you ever visit, be sure to check out the beautiful De Hart Botanical Gardens, which was named after him due to his major contributions to it!)
    Louisburg is a small town full of incredible people, and you could probably make several documentaries about it. It's full of history, too! If you're ever nearby, be sure to check it out!!
