I've been on God's green earth for 74 years now. I've wasted countless hours if not days attempting to produce high pitched noises by forcing air flow across my tongue and through my teeth & lips. Thoughts of not being able to whistle without fingers have haunted my dreams and plagued my entire life. I've lost my job of 40 years by hiding in the maintenance closet throughout the workday trying to whistle. My children's hearts are filled with malice and hurt from the years of neglect I've shown trying to obtain the skill of whistling without my fingers. My wife of 48 years has left me and taken the house with her complaining that my pursuit of whistling without fingers has caused her nothing but stress from feelings of being unloved and unwanted. Just last month, I wrecked my car, my only possession, on highway 45 while trying to achieve my dreams. I've taken shelter behind a small shopping mall and have fashioned a lean-to against a wall to protect my few belongings from the elements. Most nights are sleepless from the cold, the howling of the coyotes, or dwelling on the realization that my life has descended into a hellish, whistle-less nightmare. I often fantasize about ending it all to escape this hellscape. So here I sit inside a McDonald's with my free cup of water and my 0.99 cent hamburger just to have access to the free wi-fi that is offered. I stumbled upon your videos as a broken incapable of whistling without my fingers. And here you are before me, a Germanic, whistling angel bestowing a lifetime of sacred knowledge unto me. You are rest to the weary, relief to the broken, and food to the hungry. This tutorial has subsequently had me removed from the aforementioned McDonalds for disturbing the customers from my extraneously loud whistling capabilities. YOU HEAR THAT MARGARET YOU STUPID BITCH!? I CAN WHISTLE WITHOUT MY FINGERS! But Margaret, if you’re reading this, I’m sorry….please come back. Tell the kids I love them.
My husband and I are suddenly obsessed with learning this high pitched fingerless whistle! Please Lord in heaven, help us to whistle so we don't end up like this poor man! I'm afraid the signs are already beginning... Cheeks are so sore we can't smile. Our daily chores are being neglected and the dishes and laundry are piling up. Pray for us! Seriously this was a great tutorial. Still can't do it though. My sister could do it but she used her fingers . Major kudos to the writer of the life story of the elderly man who lost everything! We are cracking up! And finally, to Margaret: we understand his obsession! Please take him back! He loves you so much! Now that he has achieved his life long goal his talent will come in very useful!
Matt brother, you saved me months and months of life time, I watched your three part series today and I got my first couple of quiet whistles out in one sitting this evening, that tongue rolling technique is pure money, I totally felt that weird tongue twist feeling you talked about in the Part 2 video. I wish you not best of luck because thats bs but much love and freedom, make something out of this gift, you are a coach, a teacher, market yourself as an online whistle coach, people want to pay people that solve their problems as eloquent and easy as you do, you totally deserve that because you mastered this craft, I literally see how you could be the number one online coach in this niche and everybodys first choice when they want to learn how to whistle. No ulterior motives here, just some food for thought. Mike
This was really helpful! Got some kind of sound in 1 day and after 2 weeks I am very confident handsfree whistler. It is not yet as loud as fingered whistle but getting there slowly. How do you make the bird like sound?
Thanks a mil man, after a week's worth of practice and spittle I'm whistling like a champ. Any specific tips for changing pitch? I can hit different pitches at the start, but whenever I try to change it something always ends up slipping out of place
Dude you’re the GOAT Whistler. Still haven’t picked it up yet but been practicing. Not sure how to position my teeth and get the vibrating of my tongue down
hi buddy, actually a good vid, so i am also one of those lucky people who can do this. and you mentioned some very good things, but for those of you who still cant get it, here are some more tips: in general dont be irritated or confused about the little u shape, that hes doing with his tongue, dont focus on that, it will come automatically. the most important thing to know is that your tip of your tongue should definitly not touch your bottom lip, otherwise you will never be able to learn this skill. so try to learn it with a mirror an then try to see that you have a tiny gap between your bottom lip and your tounge while your softly blow, like he is telling it you in his video. its just like a sigh. while you are sigh your back-side parts of your lip should (softly) touch your bottom back-teeth and your top of your tounge should be just a little bit under your front teeth, so you have a little gap between your upper teeth an your lip, the tounge should then feel like a spoon or something like that and dont forget your tiny gap between your bottom lip, which is sealed over your bottom teeth, and your top part of your lip good Luck, i hope you all will get it. if you have questions i can help him answer them Chris
Damn just when i thought i was doing it right he says if it sounds high pitch but no loud than its not the right one. Now i have to redo the whole thing
Matt, my tongue position is pressing against my bottom teeth and my top teeth would press against my tongue creating the exact same shape you create but whistling sound isn't comin along. And look at other vids ppl do put their tongue pressing against the bottom teeth yet creating the same shape as everyone else. Could it then be my lip positioning?
I am practicing this since 3 years now and haven't improved myself a bit. Does braces affects the whistle in any way? When I try to whistle only 10% of whistle comes out and the rest 90% is air. The order of my teeth is a bit tangy so I think that must be a problem. I have got the positioning of my lip and tongue well same like you but there is no result. Please help. I will be so happy If you advice me something. I also commented on your last video.
Hi matt. I finally managed to get the right tongue/lip placement and managed to get a whistle. My front teeth have gaps, so I have to use my upper lip to cover them, people I know that whistle very loud do the same as me. my question is this: How do you get to the higher tones? All I manage to get is a low tone and I just cannot seem to figure this out..
When I was learning, I figured out how to do a low tone whistle and I thought I got it. I spent a month trying to make it higher pitch until I realized it wasn't the right whistle. That could be your case. But I got it shortly after that. If you really did get it, then all you need to do is push your tongue harder up to make the hole smaller and angle the air flow more down (requires practice to build strength, but this is done by pulling/curling the tip of your tongue back very slightly). Next, make your lip tighter and open your mouth just a tiny bit more.
Hey Matt I've sent you an email to the Gmail email you said in the comments. Hope your still answering questions. For anyone else with the same query, I'm struggling to increase the pitch, I feel confident I'm getting the whistle right, just can't quite make it deafening like I hope too.
@@MannheimerFamous Try to hold your cheeks very tight. It really helped me getting a nice small channel for the air to come through. Good Luck my Friend. I hope u get it.
Guys once u get this it’s the most easiest thing ever I learned a week ago and now it rings my ears one thing that can get it is to pull your bottom lip over your bottom teeth and then stick your tongue out and blow as your blowing pull your tongue in farther and farther until u start to hear it a little then practice it this sounds confusing by reading it but if I could show u in person you would get it........this took my 2 months to fully learn so it does take practice

"I'll give you some new tips that will FOR SURE, maybe, be able to get you to whistle" 😂😂
i like the way he talks so seriously about whistling
Thanks dude, now I am that one person in the crowd looool
I feel like I'm learning to walk for the first time...only light headed. I'll endeavor to persevere though.
can you draw the scheme of how lips and tongue should go and where the air flow must go or where exactly it should hit

Mate, took me 4 months to get it, felt like forever. Just kept trying whenever I'm by myself in the car. Your videos really helped. Thanks mate!
I watched your first two videos and was able to whistle in two days.
Thanks for the help, dude. You're awesome.
zane evans nice man! Thanks!
Hey Matt, I'm so glad you showed me this. Finally after 5 months of practising, I'm able to do it.

How did you not lose your mind trying to learn for two year!??
Matt, I got a short demo clip. Not sure if it's "post-worthy". I'll let you be the judge. How should I send it?
How’s it going bro? I’m hoping I can finally do it, practicing now
Dude you’re the GOAT Whistler. Still haven’t picked it up yet but been practicing. Not sure how to position my teeth and get the vibrating of my tongue down
Can you give me some advice on how to whistle as I’m struggling

Chris
Christian Lorne I keep trying these tricks but I still can’t get the whistle sometimes I can get something but I can’t keep it any ideas??
BIRDY BOY
Yep you have to practice
Enzo Kun I’ve been practicing for over a year now I’m obviously not doing something right
How can i make it louder
@@FlameGators yeah i can tell you why, your tip of your tounge is touching your bottom lip. Look in the mirror an try to leave a little gap
Lying in bed watching your videos and learning how to whistle yeah!! 💪🏼 I think I’m on the right track... how would I send you a video ?
Nice! Haha I'm not sure I didn't think it all the way through.
It is a whole different animal trying to learn how to whistle with my mouth and then doing it with my fingers my entire life. But starting to get it
What do you do when you get the high pitch whistle
Should you feel thin air flow or wide?
Omg! The cheeks were the key! Thank you! Going to practice some more using these tips 😎😎
Do you play harmonica? Similar to bending a tone
Damn just when i thought i was doing it right he says if it sounds high pitch but no loud than its not the right one. Now i have to redo the whole thing

HILARIOUS
i have braces and want to know if i can still learn how to whistle like that or are there different ways for me to do it
I’m not able to do the tongue flap. Is there a way to do it without that or do I have to learn that tongue flutter first
No way did you just read out your scripted headings.."Intro - check" Man you are bloody hilarious!
I just can't get it, I dont know how to keep my tongue between my teeth when doing it
Dang it, where was your advise 40 years ago? With your tips I was busting out folks ear drums with a 1/2 days practice.
Haha nice!
Air goes into the space between my upper lip and teeth. What can i do to improve?
I’m stuck on the high pitch whistle
How can i make it louder?
Do you have Instagram? Idk if you teach people there too
I can't yet whistle at the kids with this technique, but I have a killer S on my "you little shits". I'll get there.
I got it I got it

What if i have a big gap in my front teeth?
How many decibals
But if i have a tooth cap?
Hey Matt I've sent you an email to the Gmail email you said in the comments. Hope your still answering questions.
For anyone else with the same query,
I'm struggling to increase the pitch, I feel confident I'm getting the whistle right, just can't quite make it deafening like I hope too.
1 question are u blowing air inside or outside
😭😭😭😭😭😭
I couldn’t really get it but those are really great tips my only suggestion is to explain it a little bit slower
Got the whistle, but it won’t work when I’m blowing harder
That makes the whistle quiet and it can’t get louder
Can someone help me?
I worry about failing as a whistler....I cry allot during practice..literally sobbing...but i keep taking my medication and practicing...
Light is found by facing the darkness. One day, you too will be a world famous whistle tips video guy like me. Never give up.
Hi Mr Burnett where can I find an email to send you my whistling video?
Matt6014@gmail.com
Matt Burnett thank you sir I really appreciate it
6 mins for your last video
3:35 into this video, and I already got a noise to come out. Not a whistle yet, but it's close
Why do i whistle like a bird? When doing this
Tip of my tongue has a damn ulcer from trying all day long
"Spider web"
I'll send a video. I've got nothing to be ashamed of. How do I send a video?
dude are you still up for getting videos and correcting them?
Yeah. You can DM me on Instagram mgb4106
The first video got 250+k views thats so much no?
Enzo Kun yeah. I thought id make some more because the first one got so many view. I guess the people dont like my sequels.
Matt Burnett because when i search about whistle i saw your video
Don't believe that someone is going to learn that within days. I'm able to whistle by 4 fingers EXTREMELY Loud. But this is another challenge!!!
It's possible. It's super frustrating at first but if you don't give up you'll get it.
Im just hissin and spittin at my computer
I've watched 3 of your vids cuz of how shitty I am lol
00:54 Lips Roll !?
I think my tongue is too short
This is sick I’m trying to learn super close I’m learning because I work at a farm and I have to get the cows to listen to me so yeah Canada things
Ryan Blanco Nice. I actually learned from working with ex-ranchers who would use the whistle for their cattle. Check out my other videos on it.
I GOT SO CLOSE
I can not, its hard
@@Wretchedjungle I tried it but i can not
I got a question. Do u bite on Ur teeth?
You mean bite on your lip? You get very close to biting on your lip but no they don't actually touch
Matt Burnett i think I’m very close to get it. But I don’t get my tongue and my under lip right. It’s sound sometimes a bit like a teapot.
Actually I mean do u bit on ur tongue. When u pull it in to get ur under lip right
@@MannheimerFamous Try to hold your cheeks very tight. It really helped me getting a nice small channel for the air to come through.
Good Luck my Friend. I hope u get it.

Taylor Long ok so u pull ur tongue in as u whistle so pulling it as in bending it upwards in your mouth?
Yvng Cloud no, pulling it as in sticking your tongue out and pulling it back in
Taylor Long make a yt vid
How many of you are here because CoVid19 has you housebound?
