David Morgan to be on local TV......
If you live in the Seattle area tune into KING at 7:00 wednesday. Looks like they're gonna have Mr. Morgan on "evening magazine".

THAT was an excellent piece! Anyone know how I can save a copy of the video for my records?

Did anyone waiting for their Morgan bullwhip see their name on the list they show in the story?

GREAT piece, indeed! Thanks for sharing.
And Adam's right. Most of the time, if you e-mail or snail mail a station with your address and a couple bucks to cover shipping, they'll send you a copy.
As a former TV Station employee however, might I suggest that if folks want a copy of this, we designate ONE person to request it, and then duplicate and distribute from there.
The person who usually handles story-on-DVD requests is either the reporter themselves or someone from the marketing/sales department, and they're typically REALLY busy. If they're flooded with requests, they might very well ignore them, or take their sweet time getting any of them out. And it would probably be better if it shipped to someone relatively local.
Just my thoughts.
All the best,

Yes, this really was a superb piece.
It just aired Wednesday, I already sent an inquiry to the station as soon as I seen they had posted the video online asking about the possibility of getting a downloadable copy of the story. Unfortunately they said they didn’t have that feature avalible, So early today I sent another request about possibly ordering a copy on DVD. I also sent Will Morgan a message asking if they had got a copy, as sometimes the Stations will provide a clip to the subject the story is on. I’ll let you all know what I hear back.

The shot of him cracking the whip in the store is where he taught my daughter to crack a whip btw, the carpet used to be pretty worn there but I think they replaced it. He is amazing because he can crack the whip without imparting much energy into it.
What a nice little feature!
I had noticed his fingers before.... but never put two and two together with the braiding.

That spot where he cracks the whip is very tiny. whenever he has me crack a whip when I'm at his shop I'm always nervous that I'm going to knock over a rack of $700 coats.
The area he cracks in is about 5 -6 feet wide by about 22 feet long. On one side of you are racks of coats and the other side is a glass case!

See what I've been telling you, man???!?!!!?! It's all about the STRAIGHT LINES! <IN MY BEST SCREECHING TONY LITTLE "TECHNIQUE!" VOICE>louiefoxx wrote: The area he cracks in is about 5 -6 feet wide by about 22 feet long. On one side of you are racks of coats and the other side is a glass case!
I throw my 8 footer in my living room all the time, and I don't have much more space than that, (actually maybe only 10 or 12 feet long. Maybe 14 with the living room closet open. But unlike the venerable Mr. Morgan, I'm not throwing 10 and 12 foot whips around in there!) I also practice in my front yard which is now VERY small and covered by trees. I have a narrow little pocket where I have enough clearance to do forwards and circus cracks, (and if I REALLY reign them in, sidearms and overheads.) This forces you into maintaining an INCREDIBLE amount of control.
Move into a wide open space after that, and it feels like you can do anything with a whip!

Hello COW'ers, it seems that there's a "new" video of Morgan giving a lesson about how to crack the whip. Sadly, the guy never success, even though he had a great teacher
http://www.king5.com/video/?z=y&nvid=255770
By the way, i've tryed lots of ways to download the other video, but like the guy in the video, i haven't been lucky.
Has anyone recived any info about it?
Good things to all of you...
