Fingers in the mouth whistle

I often wonder the same thing. Then again, I can only whistle if I inhale. MAybe the makeup of the skin around the mouth and positionning of the jaw?

Either way, I can't do it.

 

My buddy in high school and I used to sit together at the athletic events and both whistle like that at the same time. You get this harmonic note in between the two - really quite ear-piercing and annoying! We were well-loved by all in attendence, I'm sure!

 

Thought I was the only one. Weird, huh?

 

I can whistle by inhaling and exhaling. Makes it nice being able to whistle nonstop without having to ever stop for breath.

 

Ha! Inward whistling! Before this, whistlers were only whistling half the time! But NOT WITH INWARD WHISTLING! Check it out!

whooooooooooowhoooooooooooooowhooooooooooooowhooooooooooo

Take THAT, Tenacious D!!!!!!!

 

Could never do that. Sigh. Again. Another thing I fail at.

 

my father taught me years ago , but i could never master the two finger thing .
now i can whistle extremely loud just by twisting my tongue in my mouth { cheek } ...
and i do mean extremely loud .

you know , like in the movies where the guy whistles for a cab ,
only i can make it last as long as my breath will last ,
ten to twenty seconds at least .

 

i lack any and all whistling ability

 

I can't do it. Oh well.

 

i can make a rain drop sound by smaking myself the face.

altho somethimes i almost knock myself out when i try it on the head.

 

Are you saying you blow AND suck?

 

I'm lucky I can't do it. I'd probably breach the peace and commit public order offences every day if I could!

 

Whenever I try to learn how to whistle, I get light-headed after a few minutes. =/

 

I can whistle loud the normal way. My dad can whistle with his fingers in his mouth. I swear it could start avalanches. I guess it's a New York thing.

 

i've been trying to do that for years. There was one day where i did it two or three time. I've actually tried for an hour or so to figure it out, to no avail.

I ran across this site a while back. I can't do it but haven't tried these instructions either ... http://www.geocities.com/whistle_teach/

 

Yes I can. I can also whistle pretty loud between my two front teeth and by sticking my tongue with a bit of a dip, part way between my lips. It's kind of hard to explain, but my dad tought me how to do it a long time ago.

 

Always wished I could do that.

I can whistle in the normal way, pursing the lips, air over the tongue, or with the tongue up against the roof of the mouth, lips relaxed, but neither of them give ear-splitting volume.
