Who here can whistle loudly?

[BaLLPAddICT]

You know, how people use their fingers to make a really loud whiste to haul a taxi or call in their dog. Damn, I wish I could do that. For those of you who do know how and can, my question is how can you? I got to learn!

[PythonWallace]

I can. It's easier to do it with your index and middle finger of both hands. Start practicing this way. Use those two fingers on both hands to push underneith the tip of your tongue, so that it folds back. The bottom of your tongue should almost be touching your lower lip, which should be pressed down and back by your fingers. There should be a gap between your upper lip and your fingers. Use your lungs and blow. When you master this, switch to the index finger and thumb from one hand, forming a partial circle.

I wish I could! My husband has the loudest whistle with no fingers, just somehow folding tongue and lips. I don't know how he does it but it is LOUD!

(and yes, I think I was rather silly looking trying the steps above, too!)

Hehe....I'm only looking silly in front of my 4 year old...and he thinks I'm silly to begin with, so it's OK. Making myself dizzy, though!

[tigerlily]

I can't whistle like that but I do know how to put my lips together and ... ummm.... well nevermind.

[BaLLPAddICT]

Lol, I'm gonna keep practicing, everyone else good luck!
