Bullwhip Cracking

Just me cracking some of my homemade bullwhips at a secret location. nothing special, I just think this is a good place to do it cause the sound really reverberates out through the woods. I don't think the mic on the camera does it justice. Please rate, please rate, please rate! Thankyou!

WOw you really need to learn how to crack a whip safely,.. there was so many close calls there

@thecopykidofthestarz Think about all the times I hit myself trying to learn how to crack them.

[MustyGashPlug]

How much did all of your supplies cost and how much time did you spend?

[ad101276]

A spool of paracord one thousand feet long cost me 70 bucks or so. A roll of lead tape was like 35 bucks or somethin. I don't know if the lead tape is really necessary though. I use it to add weight to the whip and it also helps make the core of the whip a little stiffer but I think my whips are too heavy. I don't know how a proffesionally made whip feels seeing that i've never cracked one. Bernie told me the whip in his video weighs 1 and a half pounds.

Oh yeah and each whip is about 10 to 12 hours of work.

I'm not sure how heavy a whip should be. I think that these may be a little on the heavy side.
