How to do a Loon Call

[awesomazical]

i used to be able to do it then i broke my wrist when i was driving a 4 wheeler and i cant get my hand to fold that way anymore. it makes me sad.

[ridog01]

i can not do it

[nurulpss]

hell yeah got it after hours of only fart noises... :D

[TenaciousOreos]

[Orchid0Eye]

Took me like 30 minutes to get it :D

[redwolf126]

[blokdeblok]

@redwolf126

[jmjerrymillerpitboss]

how do u move ur hand and get another sound

[jmjerrymillerpitboss]

it doesnt matter if ur right or left cause i can do it jst fin and im a righty and my bro he iz a lefty and he can do it wif no prob

[alcowboys9]

Fuk I can't do it I have watched like 7 diffrent videos checking if there's another way but no luck plus Id think this matters but I'm a lefty so it's more difficult for me too do this

[GuitarManTayana]

First you do this... and then this... after that you do this... and the most important step is this... then do this... WAKAKAKAWAKAKA /:

Nah i only kid... Ive been practising and can do it pretty dece now (: yay

[Danniekitten]

darn i cant do it!

[Octagonapus97]

WTF I can't do it! I try, and I'm fairly close. It sounds more like the wind than a loon. Also, I'm left-handed, so it's hard to make my hands like that. :(

[Orchid0Eye]

@Octagonapus97 You can switch hands if it's easier

[0l2E0]

It only took me eleven hours to accomplish this. =.=

[D1Rap]

Lol i actually knew how to do that from before!

i'm a god damn hipster.

[PicklesReallySuck]

I've tried to do this shit off and on for years. I cannot do it.

[SabiJonas1]

i learned this during track at my skool, it was much more fun than running arround a feild 10 times and i can do it pretty loudly too but i place my hands in a different way

[levelat350]

YOU UPLOADED THIS ON MY 15TH BIRTHDAY.

[procar99]

wow did it first time by fluke :D I just need to find the right spot so I can do it perfectly everytime. Thanks lol the other vids didnt help, but this did :)

[ashleylgodin1995]

I can make the noise just with my mouth, but I can't do it like this, its sad cause im first nation and i live on a lake haha

[RambOFreAc96]

Hahaha so cute!

[jfeltes2]

What a looney tune lol jk

my hands are bigger so it makes a deeper whislte

[Warba98]

Thumbs up if even this is too hard for you =D

[D4RkCinema]

iv'e done this on a lake before seeing this video, i learnt this on my own, somehow it came naturally to me and i was in france camping with my dad when i was young and some birds replied, it was amazing haha

[SnowlandWolf]

I'm not getting any sound out of it :C

[fontaine526]

omg i have that same blanket

[DylanMCoD4]

Thumbs Up if you can't do it...

[stosta123]

@DylanMCoD4 i'd have to thumb this down

[number5studios]

[bubyrea]

[misspennyjenny]

[JaaronGriffith]

[Crazy80563]

I can do it!! Yes! Haha thanks! :P

[DtNGangstaz]

getting lightheaded xD

[geckles]

i think you have to have genetically shapped hands, i been trying to do this for over a decade now. still only produce a lot of wind.

[TheBert09]

i can make the noise but i cant change the pitch... i need help!

[LadyTarasque]

my bro used to be able to do it but not anymore.. as for me.. i get a hollow wind sound.. xD not what i was hoping for..

[jerkedxx]

i can make wind noises from my anus beat that!!!!!

[jms4323]

im friken light headed

[ThatRussianN00b]

Im even better i can make wind noise BEAT THAT

[SaskueSucks]

Ever now and then I can do the epic sound but most of the time i can only make the whistle sound, but your just amazing at it

[firefoxgurl0]

I did it!!!!!!!!!

[frogface4452]

I cant get it louder... I can do it but not loud can someone help me?!

[humuhumueleele]

I did this indoors. My Dad was pissed.

[TattooCulture]

The real loon call is one of the most beautiful sounds ive ever heard

[evaspirit]

me at the first time y can bud now i can't xDDD!!!!!!!!

[long2743]

i can't do it

[malok111]

OMFG out of 14 years of practice i watched this vid then i tried it then it worked! but only for like a half a second because once it made the sound i accidentally moved my hands

[Greanea]

All i get is kind of like air with a tune. That figures since I can;t even whistle :'(

[DFilmsz]

i made sound!! after 3-4 months!

[ilikepenguins100]

@DFilmsz only took me like 4 hours of nonstop practice to perfect it

[oggleman]

nothing like the real thing, no offense

[Outdoorsforum]

I cant get the part were you make the higher pitch and lower pitch really quick. Is there a special way to move your hands?

[pardomtlca]

@Outdoorsforum That would how fast you move the air through your hands to affect pitch...FAST for high..SLOW for low notes

[SyNth3tic0412]

yes! achieved your level in 15 mins!

[elborrachitgracioso9]

haahhahahahahahahahah llolololol i was practicing at my bed and when i tryed it sounded like a fart and my friends got away form me hahaha

[uberk00l10]

@Tyler8756 the same opening you blew in, but at the bottom

[LeKevin01]

@Tyler8756 you put ur lip on your nuckle

[HawockHain]

@Tyler8756 When you do the call there is a gap between your thumbs; that is where the sound comes from. It's sort of like playing a flute, and the gap is the embouchure hole.

[gochicagoblackhawks]

lol, when i do this all i get in response is "shut up!"

[lewisback12]

what an amazing name krystal. and 5 stars for the helpful tutorial:)

[bungo96]

why i cant do it its annoying

[sirduncan8]

all i got was a farting sound :(

[themichealjackson1]

@sirduncan8 me too:((((

[misspennyjenny]

@sirduncan8 all ya gatta do is keep on practicing and youll get it right :)

[chesterngiamzhenghao]

@sirduncan8 HAHAHA!

[CaseyHorses]

@sirduncan8 i sound more like a duck than i am calling one -.-'

[rpowarz]

That's actually cool. I am practicing now for our trip to Old Forge.

[rpowarz]

I think she has a whistle!

[sanzau]

Awsome..

[MultiFelix123456]

how you do that

[eizzofentertainment]

@MultiFelix123456 My wife can do it, I can't. Wish I could!

[CelebFanatic91]

I cant do it! :x

[huggybear100]

i like the echo

[chesocrafy]

if you get it lowered pitch you can get it to sound like a mourning dove.

[jayjayn1000]

I GOT TO THANK YOU ( i cant do the different notes) But i annoyed my sisters BIG TIME~

[jemar200]

I cant do it i dont know what im doing wrong

[IndigoCat17]

You r a loonie not a loon

[ArelnaPhoenix89]

i used to be able to do a loon call with just my throat but my throat had to be extremely soar to do it. surprisingly it didn't hurt to do a loon call. now i can't do it since i'm out of practice

[Tlichoranger]

Haha I Love Calling Loons Too... Maybe Ill Show You what happens in Town

[AndrewDBarker]

I learned how to do this in camp one year. My pinky on my right hand has to be in between my middle finger and index on my left otherwise I can't get the seal to do the call. Nice job though Krystal. It takes a LOT of practice to get good at this, and some people just .. can't do it no matter how hard they try it.

[themooseislooseadk]

have you actually received feedback from the loons when you did this?? its awsome

[fozzbooks]

@themooseislooseadk Sadly our lake doesn't have many loons. We are going to try a few other calls. It would definitely be cool to hear on respond.

[lightnightpranks]

@themooseislooseadk I usually get replies when I hear a loon and call back to them, they usually don't come too close because my call isn't that good though.

[MrClay97]

thank u a lot everyone else sucked a lot at showing me.

[venessacourtney]

how do you get the pitch so high?

[AndrewDBarker]

@venessacourtney A LOT of practice.

[chrisdgoldie]

I feel dumb doing this in my apartment. Thank goodness I don't have a roommate.

[7vickisick]

i could do it now!

[7vickisick]

were does ur left hand go

[7vickisick]

were do you blow into

[fozzbooks]

The top part of the hole between the thumbs by the knuckles

[7vickisick]

thanx does it take a lot of practice

[fozzbooks]

Not for some, my fiancee does it so easy. I still can;t do it

[AsianBoyz117]

@7vickisick its kind of like blowing into a bottle, like the air has to come out of the small gap in between your thumbs. hope that helps :D

[TheThomasp123]

@fozzbooks do you blow up down middle...

[misspennyjenny]

@7vickisick you put your top lip on the top nuckle and and bottum lip on the botton nuckle, dont cover the whole hole.....

[erick476]

@7vickisick u have to blow where she saidxD

[chelxeaty]

I do this all the time at my Rez lol we live near a lake so theres always loons around:) awesome video

[HorseMaster94]

I don't work for me. D:

[FunnyVidMachine]

[fozzbeats]
