Mullet Guy Whistles, Blows Minds

[Wimbo]

One fateful day in the late '80s, during the golden age of talk shows, a man wearing a great t-shirt and an even greater haircut spent two minutes and 35 seconds performing an act involving whistling, facial expressions, and a Hoagy Carmichael song. Like a viral Holy Grail, it sat dormant for years, waiting to be discovered. Presidents came and went, nations rose and fell, hip-hop was born and New Coke died. The world waited for it to return.
And now, finally, it has.

The expressions on the children's faces was great.

Where was he whistling from... I don't get it

He clearly wasn't whistling through his lips.

Whistling is done predominantly with the tongue, not the lips alone.

I'm not sure if I'm okay with the fact that I watched that or if I'm pissed off that I watched that. :laugh2:

When I was in pre-school, I whistled from my throat once while yawning. It probably looked like I was screaming, but I wasn't. Scared me awake something good, thought I had something living inside of me that was screaming to get out.

If you watch him closely he is whistling w/ his teeth/back of the tongue and throat. You are correct, he is not a lip whistler.

When I first saw him I thought of Bert Reynolds. Really young.

The performance should've ended two minutes before it did.

I agree. It got painful after a minute or so of watching. Maybe that is the reason the kids faces were wearing such pained looks.

Maybe at that age your ears are more sensitive like puppies are.

I'm more impressed with his hair style and mustache combo.
