I've noticed the same thing about ASL textbooks! I wonder if it's related to the fact that a lot of people lose their hearing (and therefore need to learn sign language) later in life.
That's definitely a likely possibility!
This video will blow up soon
You cursed me XD
Not sure why youtube thought i needed this video? ah well, have a sub
Have fun with them
Thats an ornamental unit. The real ones are much larger. And its thrown the other way around.
so u make a video about something that u havent even looked up before? I mean there are dozenz of guides on youtube bro. this video was a bit sad to watch and i mean isnt it obvious to change the technique of it doesnt work.. it cant fly like ur holding it, because its like a airplane wing. It needs to be more leveled to the ground. Like a in between of what ur doing and skipping a stone over water. but despite that, i like the video quality. Looks professional.
traaash video mate. maybe look up how to do it if you're too dumb to find out. and it looked like you've never thrown anything in your life, this was horrible.
Bro, I got the same 14" Murra-Wolka made in 2002 traditional returning boomerang from Australia. It's really high-skill thing. Not easy to throw it right way so it can return straight to your hands. It took me almost two days to throw it correct way so it returned to me ;)
I guess I was trying on hard mode XD Thanks for the report!
@@vocalvacations Keep up the good work!
Ones that don't come back at all are called a stick.
youtube.com/@VictorPoulin?si=62lb13K5ic7OP69g
youtube suggested me your video out of no where, tbh I didnt think you are a small createor untill I finished the video, I really loved the intro, keep going Just consider filimg in higher quality.
How was the resolution for you? I export at 1920 1080 at 60fps
i love these videos where they pretend to be mentally handicapped and troll the audience.
so thats what a silly band is
The 9 year old me is yelling "throw it like a Frisbee". What happened to society? This is what kids played with, not damaged adults.
you don't throw boomerangs like a frisbee
@@arunashamal Maybe you don't, I the sure have and I have used them for hunting effectively. But then again, I grew up in Asia where they were used.
@@SALTYCOMBATDIVER-ExInstructor I'm sitting right here in Australia. you don't throw a boomerang like a frisbee if you want it to come back, you throw it vertically like he is trying to do in the video but with the tip of the v pointing at your direction!
@@arunashamal they are thrown at an angle, not vertical. Thanks for proving yourself wrong and good for you, I grew up there and again we used them in the field.
@@SALTYCOMBATDIVER-ExInstructor you were telling the guy to throw it like a frisbee which is absolutely the wrong way, and after getting humiliated after me pointing out the correct way, you suddenly found angles? lol! Oh well good like trying to crawl back out of the hole you yourself dug!
TH-cam is watching us. Last night I thought I take the boomerang out and just have fun with it - It was first time in like, 5 years. I didn't even say a single word about the boomerang, ALL I FUKING DID WAS TO TOUCH IT AND THINK ABOUT IT. This morning, I'm getting this video in my feed for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. Coincidence?
yes
Total agreement.
Well theres 5.55 minutes I'll never get back 😂
I'm out at 3:45, thanks. Homie don't know he has to throw the axis he wishes to curve along.
dude.... use your brain you were throwing it with its edges pointed up and down like a plane turned sideways during flight.... when was the last time u saw a plane fly with its wings vertical lol
Nah you throw boomerangs vertical and then then self level. You're supposed to throw it with the point of the triangle facing backwards and the two ends facing forwards. it looks like this boomerang just sorta sucks.
you throw boomerangs vertical, like if you are holding a long bow, but the bowed part, in your direction, instead of the target..
It doesn’t matter which way the elbow of the boomerang is pointed when you throw it. What matters is the direction of the rotation - the airfoils have to be moving through the air in the right direction - just like an airplane wing. (Also, that is a decorative boomerang - it won’t come back without modifying the arms.)
It's not a throwing knife or hatchet ,
You suck you didn't do it
You're throwing it like you're holding a banana. You haven't even tried to learn how to throw it correctly lol.
lol yeah, the aboriginals have such deep complex knowledge and technique when it comes to stick throwing. how dare this tourist throw the stick wrong?!
@@__shiftyI am just laughing coz he's winging it when he could have watched a tutorial first. Your response is a bit strange, you seem a bit on edge.
I threw it like a frisbee, side arm. It would go straight and flat until it caught the air and go up and curve until it slid off in an arc. Eventually coming back. Like rolling a ball up a hill. The hill is the air. Rolls up the air and slides back off in your direction. Can do the same throwing a frisbee into the wind.
This makes a lot of sense. I wonder if mine is just too heavy and thin to get that nice lift
@@vocalvacations I think that's a display unit. Decorative. Could be wrong of course. Ours was about twice the size of that one. I don't remember the airfoil shape. I think it was basically flat but much longer. Don't remember there being a top or bottom. I don't think it mattered which way we threw it. Just as long as it was thrown towards the breeze and with a strong flick. We did manage to get it to come back pretty close. Like frisbee for one player.😏 Good luck.
You're holding it and throwing it completely wrong and that boomerang looks likes some non functioning bullsh*t made for tourists.
was gonna make the same comment lol..... "throw things much?"
@@loile7336 hahaha yep.
saved my lazy ass from typing it
was facepalming so hard while watching the video. Like "doh! wtf are you doing?"
@@metalim 😂😂😂
Throwing abilities of a 12-year old girl😂
no bully
@@macemaster yes white knight who takes jokes serious.
you don't even know how to stop doing it, do you? must've had a rough childhood
Next time try throwing it like you’re skipping a rock on the water except you’re trying to skip the boomerang on the wind. The way you’re throwing it now looks like you’re trying to slice the wind in two 🪃💨
That's exactly what I was about to text
Good idea, but I fear this wooden one might be too heavy and thin to generate any lift
You're holding it vertically, it's curving right into the ground.. The angle of the boomerang relative to the ground matters too. But then again idk wtf I'm talking about.
Why are you throwing it up are you hunting birds😮 well I've done a long time ago I threw it down aiming around 25 yards in front of me at around 60° and it would go almost skim the floor and loop back far to the right idk what kind it was but it was bigger and heavier than the one you have
Yeah this one's a little funky. Probably works best mounted on a wall!
mine has an indent for lift, maybe yours is just decorational?
That's possible. There's such a wide variety of designs, I've even heard of left-handed models!
I'm not American. I picked ya out to pick up the accent. Your accent is dope. Keep on, bruh
Thanks brother, let's get that fluency!
I improved my Japanese by using this new amazing technology called "library" and I can get some "books" as well... FOR FREE! That's wild. For real, reading daily 2+ hours every day of Japanese thanks to my local Japanese Embassy Library is doing wonders to my Japanese.
Old is gold, isn't it?!
I am taking Basque classes and every month we get given a magazine called Aizu. It doesn't come with audio and there isn't a clear cut distinction between levels but it is definetly designed for learners. I'm not focusing on Basque atm, I mostly follow the level of the course and self study other languages in my free time, but the day I decide to focus on it they will come really handy. I believe this was started in the 80s after Basque got legalized? Really impressive nontheless, there is a lack of modern and technological resources for Basque but traditional methods keep being there
That sounds wicked cool. I didn't know there was a time when Basque was illegal! Tell me more!
It makes me think about the power of the tecnology and knowlege...❤
ik ben dit vriend 😭 also, 6 is sextuple 😅
not me watching this video and ignoring duolingo’s messages 🫡
Not using a mobile app to learn language :(
@@vocalvacations it's actually kinda helpful, since my level in my target language is beginner i get to know new vocab and sentence structure with the apps, also i think it's better five minutes at duolingo than not practice at all
@@offnynyHey nothing wrong with using Duolingo, though I have to say it's better for some languages than others. Still there are a lot of perks to it, like having constant reminders, getting your daily minutes in, and it being free.
*promosm*
I thought it was just going to be Hitler jokes the whole time, but no. It's funny, and enjoyable. Bet you can't wait to learn about Schweinhund or Arschgeige and what they mean!
Thank you for the feedback! And no, German is scary... X(

As a german this is even funnier

I'm German and I write like that too because of my dyslexia, and I always lose because I write the word wrong.
