Step 1The Karate Chop

The Karate Chop
The first step is what I call "The Karate Chop." Chop you left hand with your right hand. Chop right where the fingers meet the palm.

HIYA!

Whoa- that actually worked for me on the first try! Cool. Of course, I can whistle normally, but this seems like a good life skill. Can you teach me how to do the high pitched whistle with two fingers in the mouth?

jesus thanks! man I did it right away I was really surprised, I cant whistle with my lips but I can now like this.. awesome!

Can I just say that you told us to Chop our left hand with our right hand, but then showed us chopping our right hand with our left? Also, where should the chopping hand lie on the chopped hand? Should the pinky lay across the fingers, or should the meaty part of our hand between the pinky and the wrist lay across the fingers? And, what's wrong with making out with the hole between our thumbs? :)

Why is the face partially pixellated? Is someone wanted by the law for whistling? L

I was wondering the same thing. Is it a crime in your town to express one's feelings through music?
