He does it with a skill and with comic timing that even impresses his countrymen, much less any gringo. It's sort of an *up and down* tone done in quick succession that really sounds like the whistler is trying to say something or issue a warning...you really know it when you hear it. Anyone in SoCal knows what I'm talking about. It's also used when someone doesn't want to say a dirty word and it can be side-splitting hilarious in that context.

The second whistle in this montage of mexican tunes, right after the screw drivers is the one all the chollos in my hood as a kid did.
