I Found the Wakataki!!! Origami Legend Revealed!

[@jeremyshaferorigami]

Today May, 4th, 2023, I just went through and read ALL of the comments. Thank you, everyone for being part of my favorite video of mine. I'm glad so many people found it funny (even if it was just my face that you found funny!😛). It was kind of like a time capsule. A blast from the past. Best comment award goes to... sciencemagician346 who 7 years ago, commented: "In Japan, they don't only worship the wakataki, they also warship it!"

[@catapatti]

acabei de terminar meu primeiro Wakataki, muito bom, Jeremy! Mas eu soube que em breve, haverão tentativas de dominação mundial dos Wakatakis, por isso, estou começando a domesticar o meu.

I used to ALWAYS follow your tutorials and fold origamis as a little kid! And I'm thinking I am going to start folding origami's again! This is one of my favorite and most memorable videos of you I watched as a little kid. I wish even more people knew about you and your massive talents! Thank you for everything Jeremy, I will always remember you.

[@Crimson-Nova]

Dear Jeremy, your presentation is .... fantastic!!! You're so good that I've tried to make my first origami ever!

[@marianneconque6372]

Hi Jeremy. My son wanted to show you that he made a fishataki or whalataki from the wakataki, by squishing it together vertically, with valley folds on top and bottom, and folding the fins back. Thanks! Also, can you please make a rattlesnake that rattles its tail?

[@knightfighter3635]

I mostly like this video because I find the end of the video to be very relaxing.....

[@jeremyshaferorigami]

Thanks for your feedback. That's me improvising on the piano. I might try to find those tracks and stick them into future videos.

Jeremy Shafer you are my favorite origamist.

[@jeremyshaferorigami]

@kpv1973 To make it fly into outer space, you just put it over your mouth like the Beakataki, aim upward, and blow really hard (preferably with a strong "P" sound). Keep the steam of air going to get the maximum blast off. Hope that helps.

[@Wcraft283]

I haven't done origami for two years and did lots of Minecraft Redstone instead, I am SOOO thankful origami doesn't get broken in the new version, because this video is almost as old as Minecraft itself.

It's super cool and fun to fold it

[@averysexypotato630]

I love the introduction I almost laughed

[@jeremyshaferorigami]

@toontown742 To make it bite, you just have to pull the sides with just the right amount of force. If you pull to hard the paper will rip, and if you don't pull enough, it won't bite.

[@karlobucic4412]

I rember how I watched this 7 years ago as a ten year old and googleing "Wakataki" because I believed in this funny legend. I made your origamis probably a hundred times. I used to and still make them for my parents as a symbolici gesture. What I want to say - thank you for being part of my childhood !

[@thebossinator9887]

Also the wakataki has a another rare ability so that the few people that have actually seen it forget they saw anything

[@jadvincentdelfin8514]

i love his origami videos
