I can't whistle.
I can snap my fingers but it took me a long time to figure out how.

Yes.

I can also, belch loud, fart loud, fire fart succesfully, wiggle my ears, and make a strange hmming noise that sounds like a ret*d radiator. :lol:

I can whistle any song I want to. This has been a great annoyance to some teachers when I begin doing it in public without realizing what I am doing.

I can whistle, I learnt this when I was about 12. My grandfather was teaching me how to do it for quite a long time but it's not thanks to his efforts I learnt it, I did it on my own. But I can't whistle any melody with an exception of The Bridge on the River Kwai melody. :D

Can't whistle for the life of me. Always wanted to. Really admire those people, especially women, who can whistle loudly, you know, to call the dog, or at a concert instead of applauding by clapping of the hands. My husband is an excellent whistler, and I love hearing him whistle, it's like a barometer, letting me know he's happy.

I can whistle and one of my nervous tics was whistling at one point. Whistling has to be one of the most annoying sounds on earth so be thankful if you can't do it :wink: .

I tried your tips Macallan but still no luck. I have to wonder if it's genetic like tongue rolling (which I can sort of do).

I CAN snap my fingers! But it did take me quite a while to learn. And speaking of things that I learned later than most, it also took me ages to figure out how to tie shoe laces.

I can do something thats kind of like whistling, like if I pucker and blow, I can make a single tone, but I could never learn how to control it.

The only way I can whistle is inhaling.
