Whip Cracking With THe Why Guy

Post by jerryrwm »

Thought I would post the link to a recent segment from WFAA TV in the Dallas area that aired this morning.

Watch and you'll see ITG out there cracking in the park.

Good job Holly.

That was really cool! Got to see (and hear) Sebastian and ITG doing their thing. After seeing Sebastian cut spagetti from between two fingers I really need to practice more. Wow! Amazing. That was neat that ITG was in gear too!

The thing I found the most interesting though is that apparently Texas schools get a day off for Cinco de Mayo. What?!

Seriously, it was great to see whip cracking getting a legitimate profile for once. Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Jerry. What a nice way to start a Monday.

Do I have a southern accent? (just joking!)

Yeah that was awesome. Sebastian can do lots of cool stuff with whips, like picking up plastic bottles and popping the bottle while still in the air (you have to see it...hard trick to explain). That was toymentor's hand (toymenator is on COW and posts once in a blue moon).

Well, I think my school district may have been one of the very few because surrounding districts had school today. I'm so glad we had off because I would not have been at the top of my game at work...I had to be at the park at 6am, which meant I was up about 4:30-5:00 ish. I feel like I have jet lag today.

Yes, Jerry, thanks for posting the link. I had no idea they'd have it on their website. This is awesome that others are getting to see the segment. The reference to the guy that gave himself lasic eye surgery is actually Sergei.
