First thing that came to mind was " Thank you boob lady" when I saw the title of your thread...lol.

I love the video and actually did watch the whole thing.No way i would ever be able to do that without gagging or going into a coughing fit in a few seconds.

i'm a big fan of xoomei / khoomei

learned to do it at around 19 years old after becoming fascinated with mongolia.

still haven't been to mongolia yet but would like to make a trip there soon. not far away from japan really. i do play an instrument somewhat similar to what the mongolians use occasionally for songs (like a 3 stringed banjo). you can see one in the second part of the clip, snakeskin covered square banjo thing.

xoomei is very dangerous to attempt if you don't know how - you can totally destroy your voice - it's not made in the natural way of speaking, if you try to make the same sound using your normal voice you'll just trash yourself.

Good example of this in the intro to the song "Bridges in the Sky" by Dream Theater:
