.....how?

[–]Valoopa 177 points178 points ago

TL;DR version - Say POWP underwater

[–]dryxon 223 points224 points ago

definitely just got caught mouthing "POWP" at work...

[–]Redditornothereicumm 42 points43 points ago

yup... me too..

[–]T0PHER911 21 points22 points ago

How do you pronounce your username?..

[–]OMGBRONCOMANIAC 51 points52 points ago

Reddit or not, here I come.

[–]nastyn8k 31 points32 points ago

I think the "cumm" part is really important here.

[–]Redditornothereicumm 28 points29 points ago

The "cumm" part is important everywhere.

[–]rstumbaugh 9 points10 points ago

was sitting here for 5 minutes trying to figure out what "reddit ornother" meant

[–]MepMepperson 5 points6 points ago

[–]ander594 21 points22 points ago

Went to the mirror in the bathroom to make sure my mouth was a circle. Boss walked in behind me. I told him I had something in my teeth from lunch. 10:30am What am I doing with my life?

[–]eyc 8 points9 points ago

Yup. It's actually much easier to do than you might think. A couple other things to keep in mind: 1) tilt your head back further than you think so that your mouth is the top-most part of your head (other than your nose); 2) say POWP, but give a short controlled burst of air when you say it (more than you would just saying POWP); 3) close your mouth quickly and cleanly after POWP for a clean bubble.

[–]Program_These 33 points34 points ago

To make it really easy:

1) tilt your head back

2) make an 'O' shape with your mouth

3) take your hand and pretend like you're shaking salt into your mouth

4) Make a sound similar to gagging

5) Profit

[–]canafominux 9 points10 points ago

That didn't work for me. All I got was this weird look from the janitor.

[–]Redditornothereicumm 5 points6 points ago

Why was there a janitor in your pool?

Saying "too" with force does the trick too.

[–]kingdavecako 4 points5 points ago

That was the most ridiculously drawn out article, when this single line was more than sufficient in explaining how this is done.

[–]VALHALLA_MISSIONARY 7 points8 points ago

I'm replacing my next week of workouts until I get this.

All da ladies are gonna be swimming all over me. Ah yeahhhhh.

Their thought process is gonna be. "Wow look how he makes those bubbles, I want him to blow bubbles,

ON MY VAGINA!"

AHHHH yeahhhhh

[–]Has_It 15 points16 points ago

ah yes, bubblerings.com, the number one website for bubble rings

[–]corshap 73 points74 points ago

i was going to say Ecco the Dolphin

[–]indiglowstick 27 points28 points ago

That game was freakin hard.

[–]corshap 2 points3 points ago

ha yah actually as i was typing that, i remembered i never beat that fucking game.

[–]Nailrabbit 5 points6 points ago

Superman 64.

[–]deathlordoo 23 points24 points ago

He said hard, not impossible.

[–]Hyphnip 14 points15 points ago

That game was so bad, even your comment gets downvotes.

[–]Nailrabbit 6 points7 points ago

Yes but without games like Superman 64, we wouldn't appreciate how amazing good games are.

It is the absolute zero in the game quality scale.

EDIT

[–]Nintendork64 3 points4 points ago

ET looks worse. I mean at least Superman had GAMEPLAY. Wretchedly bad gameplay, but you're at least doing something.

[–]aryon984 4 points5 points ago

We don't talk about that.

[–]tetrishg 25 points26 points ago

[–]Shaprepenr 3 points4 points ago

Nostalgic tears. Ohhh this track. :')

[–]Kilo42 9 points10 points ago

Now we just need someone to photoshop in some of those treasure chests and that manta ray.

[–]T25Bomb 8 points9 points ago

Chasing that goddamn stingray, who goes at a ridiculously inconvenient speed.

[–]Imnolongerlurking 4 points5 points ago

Now I have that song stuck in my head.

[–]TycoBrahe 3 points4 points ago

Was also thinking Mario Party 4 myself.

[–]solarplexus7 3 points4 points ago

Or Underwater Superman 64

[–]NBAallstar 4 points5 points ago

Fuck those rings.

[–]Ceejae 3 points4 points ago

Are you a wizard?

[–]CasualTea 4 points5 points ago

Hey, you're back! I loved what you did, hadn't seen you around for a while. Keep up the good work!

[–]Wijk 25 points26 points ago

But, why?

[–]grahamster612 28 points29 points ago

check the username brah

[–]Wijk 11 points12 points ago

Still don't get the reason. ;) I'd make a new gif/video that isn't shaky for you when I get my pool ready. :P

But I guess you wouldn't be interested in that.

[–]StabilizationAttempt 61 points62 points ago

I do this primarily because I think that .gifs look better without unintentional camera shakiness. It does not usually take too much time to stabilize a .gif and post it, and people seem to appreciate it.

[Comparison 1]
[Comparison 2]

I also like to experiment with the software that I use. For example, this can become this.

[–]normmorn 23 points24 points ago

That's fucking awesome.

[–]holdthecup 4 points5 points ago

In Comparison 2, part of what makes that gif particularly funny is the camera shake from the photographer's hysterical laughter.

Examples 4 is quiet impressive though.

[–]bryankarratti 19 points20 points ago

Aquaman?

[–]ogotrice 14 points15 points ago

Looks like he has sonic screaming powers.

[–]Harreboi 7 points8 points ago

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn67vDBiL04&feature=related video. I am pretty sure I saw a tutorial a while ago and I remember that you are supposed to have your tounge out and then fill your mouth with air and then > tounge in and release some air-

[–]mattbirwin12 9 points10 points ago

i just did that in a computer lab and felt weird

[–]_TedMosby_ 6 points7 points ago

All Hail Hypno-Diver!!

[–]EnemySoil 5 points6 points ago

Does anyone else get a weird sleepy feeling when looking at the water's surface from below?

[–]IfYouSeeHerSayHello 21 points22 points ago

I think that's known as "drowning".

[–]ReeG 6 points7 points ago

My ears would kill if I tried that...

[–]pyrojoe 2 points3 points ago

You can solve that problem when you go into deep water by holding your nose and trying to breath out, it equals out the pressure in your ears so they don't hurt.

[–]goodoldayz 4 points5 points ago

someone flip this video right side up, and send it to CW labeled "Aquaman Pilot" and then send me my half of the royalties. Boom welcome to showbiz !

[–]theMadBicyclist 2 points3 points ago

Or better yet, send it to the movie studios, so we can have a start to a Justice League movie.

[–]DukeSpraynard 4 points5 points ago

I find these a lot easier to do than smoke rings.

[–]Wijk 0 points1 point ago

So happy right now because I can actually do this. ;)

[–]bingram 0 points1 point ago

Do you do this the same way you blow smoke rings?

[–]Wijk 0 points1 point ago

Yes, pretty much. :)

[–]FTLRalph 0 points1 point ago

How does he stay lying on the floor of a pool? I'd float right the hell up or I'd be struggling pretty obviously.

Secondly, how can people do shit like this? If I ever had my head at such an angle in the water (facing straight up) I'd instantly be rushed with water into my nose and ears.

[–]SeeDeez 0 points1 point ago

[–]flypengy 0 points1 point ago

What's amazing about this isn't that he's making such incredible rings, it's that he's doing it without pinching his nose to keep the water from flooding his nostrils.

[–]LandofRy 0 points1 point ago

He looks like radar

[–]DrZicter 0 points1 point ago

This is how I talk to other dolphins.

I witnessed a beluga whale do this at marine land, it then swam through the ring while staring at me through the glass. It was that moment that I realized those mammals are too smart to be trusted.

Water Pulse was super effective.

[–]PEILAM 0 points1 point ago

I can do this. Its pretty easy, actually. You just kind of make a "P-ugh" motion with your mouth under water.

Getting rings is easy, but getting them nice and circular like our good sir here takes practice.
