I personally can. I can do it pretty well, too. I'd like to put myself on-par with the great whistling wizards of this generation, but I simply can't. I'm not THAT good.

How good are you guys? Do you suck? Can you whistle 64th notes?

Any sample of the great whistling wizards of this generation?

Okayish, I suppose. If you suggest a tune, I could try recording it.

Can you whistle 64th notes?
Given a sufficiently slow beat.

This is why I didn't vote. Poll's lacking an option

Either you're capable or you aren't capable. No matter how bad you are.



Most notably, look at the 1min mark. I dunno if there's any better since my ears are bleeding now from watching that.

Mine has more of a breezy noise to it than those competitors, but I can whistle decently enough to make it in the real world.

Last view: 1941 days 		I heard blacky whistle tonight. It was okay.

I also realized that I rarely whistle any tune other than the carnival night zone theme from Sonic 3, and only a part of that, and a hodge-podge of random notes.

I used to whistle this while at work over the summer. Really passes the time. It's by far my favorite whistle-worthy tune though.

Last view: 4487 days 		I whistle every now and then. Typically when I'm hella bored at work.

On days I want to mess with the other cashiers, I add vocals to my whistling to make an odd buzzing sound.

I whistle if I'm bored and none else is around to hear it.

I'd guess i'm fairly decent, but most people find whistling annoying so...

I can't whistle at all. I blame teeth spacing.

I can whistle short tunes I can memorise.

I'm often guilty of whistling Saria's Song from OOT to as far as I can remember it.

I've never been able to whistle. Which is kind of strange, as pretty much all of my relatives can...

I can whistle in and out.

I have no clue what a 64th note is.

I may be completely off-tune, but I can reproduce most of what I've memorized.


Boing: it has nothing to do with teeth spacing. I can whistle with my jaws rather far apart. :\

Whistling have nothing to do with teeths at all, but more with how you form your tongue within the mouth.

Imajin: It's pretty easy as soon you get it. Just some trial and error with the right tongue placement.

As one who uses his teeth to whistle, I must disagree with the first part of this statement.

Surely you of all people should know this? Surely I whistled in your presence?

Not that I remember. But yeah I mainly whistle with my tongue, I curl it in the weird way within my mouth.

Apparently there is a lot of various ways to do it, so I'd guess it's bit of a trial and error thing for newbies.
