![]() | How To Crack A Whip like Indiana Jones! http://www.videojug.com - Indy (Indiana Jones) is an aging hero, with or without the Crystal Skull. Why? Because of his awesome bull whip skills. Here's how to crack one off, so you can stay independent in your dotage. |

![]() | Bullwhip Cracking: The Snake Killer The crack demonstrated in this video is called the 'snake killer.' It's a nice crack to for putting a fast succession of cracks close to the ground. Only the fall of the whip should be hitting the ground, which will happen after the whip cracks. It can be fun to put a plastic water/soda bottle on the ground and try to hit it with the snake killer. When you can make the water bottle 'dance', then you know you've mastered this crack :-) Also, when bringing the whip up, it's possible to bring it up to the side of yourself (the side opposite the whip hand) or straight up in line with the whip handle. You're less likely to hit your face if you bring it up to the side, however the whip is usually brought up straight when the snake killer is used in two-handed routines. |
![]() | Cracking the Indy-on-a-budget Bullwhip Here is a little routine demonstrating the Indy-on-a-budget bullwhip. It's meant to be amusing, showing how a whip can be a 'pet'. I take the whip for a walk, order it to 'sit', 'lay down', and 'stay'. The whip also rolls over and 'speaks'. The string on the end of the whip that helps the whip crack is called a 'cracker', and crackers do wear out, hence 'the whip eats crackers'.

![]() | Sonic Boom Bullwhip Have you ever broken the sound barrier? It's easier than you think. You just need a good bullwhip, which converts arm movement into supersonic speed and triggers a sonic boom called a whip crack. |
![]() | Bullwhip Cracking: The Volley Here's a video giving a little more information on how to do the volley. I'm using a 16-plait 6 ft kangaroo bullwhip that I made. I currently hold the Guinness World Record for the most bullwhip cracks in a minute, and this is the whip I used. The volley is best done with a well-made whip, with firm plaiting, 4-7 ft long if a bullwhip, or 3-6 ft long if a stockwhip. If your whip is really supple, like a wet noodle, or a piece of rope, you will find the volley difficult to do well. |
![]() | Bullwhip Cracking: the Tasmanian Cutback This is a how-to video explaining a crack called the Tasmanian Cutback, which I believe was created by Chris Beck of Tasmania, Australia. I'm using a 6 ft nylon cow whip made by Florida whipmaker Chris Hall. If you like this video, leave a rating of 5 stars! |
