So, a few minutes ago I made supper and sat down and saw that you had a new video! I had made udon rice noodles, by the way, in a garlic and peanut sauce. Then when I saw those long, long, pale, thin white legs of yours I looked at those long white noodles in my bowl and thought, Ohhhh maaaaan, maybe I'll make an omelette instead!

It's good to see someone make a real useful boomerang that is far more commonly used. Not just the ones that return which are only useful for throwing into a flock of birds.

@RogersWildernessAdventures 4 жыл бұрын

It was a different topic to make a video on but interesting. I thought the idea of a boomerang was that it would come back if it missed its target.

@banksarenotyourfriends 4 жыл бұрын

I think this idea of a returning weapon is mostly a myth but someone will correct me if not. As far as I know, the Australian Aboriginal boomerang was intended to be thrown straight upwards at flocks of birds - when it reaches the apex of the throw it changes its angle of rotation by 90° and autorotates back to earth, spinning it's way through the flock of birds, hopefully hitting one, and because it's autorotating on the way down it has a softer landing than it would have done if you'd just thrown a stick - so the tool doesn't break as often.

@AGRSSV1 4 жыл бұрын

The returning boomerang was predominantly for training and development of throwing skills while making it fun for young children. There are stories of them being used to scare flocks of ducks into waiting nets setup along a creek.

Hey some feedback that you can apply. Maybe tell some history about the Boomerang in the beginning. Like what it was used for and that kind of stuff...Just a lill bit of extra information for more context. Love the vids

@SmoothGefixt 4 жыл бұрын

That would be great! However, time consuming aswell for the more quick simple video like this one, but quality over quantity right? Thanks a lot for the feedback!

@Baws4Gamez 4 жыл бұрын

@@SmoothGefixt Yes i understand. I get the quality over quantity stuff, but if that's the case you could spent a whole year on a video, and we dont want that huh :) Well maybe a good solution for that is just an info box, like you are doing also for birds and trees. Ofc when you do it in person its better (especially if it relates to the main subject of the video), but an info box will suffice! Also if im the only one with this feedback this can be superfluous. Do what you want ! 👌🏼
