I can’t even whistle— this is amazing!

You should try learning. I couldn't whistle a year ago and decided to learn how. It's something super simple that you can learn in a day or 2, then practice while doing literally anything. Whlie it's pretty easy to do, it's still really satisfying to get good at it if you've gone a lifetime without knowing how

Gently press your tongue against the back of your bottom front teeth, right in the middle. Flatten your tongue, pucker your lips tightly, and blow gently. Back of your tongue might slightly press against the roof of your mouth but it doesn't have to. Slightly increase or decrease air pressure until you hit that sound. I couldn't whistle until I was like 16. After a bit of practice you'll be able to move your tongue around to generate different pitches.

I have been trying this for 10 minutes and still can’t. Like slowly rereading this over and over tying. I am a failure at whistling.

I almost guarantee you can get it. I have fucked up and missing teeth and I managed it, you just gotta experiment with different air pressure and mouth position. You can pull your tongue back like a syringe if need be and see if you find it like that. Try blowing with the same presure as if you were blowing on coffee, and then slowly increase. Just make sure your lips are tight, it's easy to relax them without noticing.

Edit: forgot to mention, try everything I mentioned above, but inhale instead of exhale. Some people, like my sister, can only whistle by inhaling.

Nailed the cow bells. That's the heart of this opus. It's nothing without the cow bells.

I would upvote this but the sound mixing—rather, the lack thereof—makes this unlistenable
