If she spent as much time with a boomerang as she has stompy she’d be a pro

Boomerangs were used by indigenous Australians as a tool for hunting, they would’ve been powerful enough to knock out an emu

As an aboriginal australian person who grew up making, painting and throwing boomerangs this video actually makes me really happy, but yeah a proper solid wood boomerang can be really dangerous as they are built to take down birds, and other game like kangaroos and emu and other marsupials. So I feel like its ok to be afraid of a boomerang since they can actually do serious damage if used properly or if used wrongly

BBs are metal. Airsoft pellets are plastic
"if a 12 yo can do it for sure i can do it" yes, but you're about the same size
The boomerangs in the sky can't hurt you Maya- But what if they get stuck in my skull?
Maya is like a boomerang cuz she always comes back with the banger videos 👌🏻
It’s okay Maya your fear of boomerangs is so real, I hate shit coming at my face, it is scary (although mine come from the time I almost broke my nose when a soccer ball came flying into my head)

the chapter titles are so silly and i love reading them thank you maya 🦎
Not having contacts in but being able to perfectly name all the birds in proximity is so impressive without my glasses i wouldnt be able to tell apart a trash bag from a bird
The editing is so good 😂
her genuine horrified scream of funny shaped foam at 2:06 might have been the funniest thing i've witnessed in my 21 years of life
pov stream just ended ❤
Wow, Maya can backflip? She's so cool, you guys!
She is just the most wholesome soul on the internet. I had a rough time in my life and just watching your content made me feel much better. I got my old self back and watch you content every day cuz you have the best vibes ever. I know i sound very emotional and other thing but yeah you’re just great. Keep up the greatness.

I can’t handle the editing!!! 😂 so damn good EVERY TIME!!
this video and your shirt was the reason I found out you went to school in my hometown and worked at the tiny zoo I used to go to as a kid.... crazy i've been watching you for years and never realized it
I hope we get new episodes of "Maya has fun for once" with Timber, Awa and Push Rod Suspension Pop Legend Elton John
God, I love the editing of your videos so much!

Maya, your boomerang escapade was hilariously entertaining!
I loved when she stopped to appreciate the grackle :3
WOWIE what a great video!!!
You're so funny, I love this 💜
this editor is going insane with the edits hell yeah
i love the editors sm

Awooooo we own the night
Maya attempting to do random physical activities is a great series
You don't catch it against your hand you catch it between both hands... OUCH!!!
Really cool video!
I now understand why we have never had a robert Irwin and Maya collaboration. Having an Australian around is too big of a risk of wild boomerangs attacking her.
Been loving the thumbnails
It's no surprise that in a video about catching a boomerang, Maya makes the highlight a bird surfing lol ❤
That moment with the grackle was awesome. Even amidst all of life’s cruelty, the world can be so unexpectedly beautiful.
Also, Maya can identify birds from a couple of hundred feet away but can't tell the difference between pictures of Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio on a screen right in front of her.
These edits are top tier
always watch these live but editor does a good job so i watch again
might be the best streamer editor ever
notification gang
Loving the side quest era.
Maya consistently has the best thumbnails.
im loving the maya thumbnails where she looks annoyed. 10/10 hook
So brave! ❤
The birb just liked your ~vibes~ 😂
I think when I was a kid throwing a boomerang I would catch it by closing my hands on it, like clapping or clamping your hands down on it. That way the spinning arms arent going to hit your hands but you have to time it just right. And you move your arms and hands with the direction the boomerang is going as it gets to you. But Maya should give this another go with a 3 sided boomerang. Easier to throw and catch.
That grackle makes a sound like someone hitting the keys on a manual typewriter.
That editing goes so hard.
The bravery of learning new skills while thousands of sweaty internet nerds watch you is unmatched, truly an icon
The thumbnail is top-tier
I’m living for this grackle
watching maya attempt boomerangs but got a bonus of a grackle grackling at maya's fails
Awesome video.
Moonlight Sonata mov. 3 over the backflip edit was great
maya facing all her fears recently is awesome to watch. also the editing is on point! ❤
love that bird, was very funny
Lol the chat was like boomerang catch during kick flip :D
5:01 Maya would love disc golf.
Editing slapped, as usual
I was so happy when Maya caught the boomerang
I have never heard that bird before. Such a cool sound!
This is the type of content that makes me keep KZread
Make sure to check out Mayas new Wildlife podcast, its so good.
Ricky really had an impact on you. Chuckin boomerangs and calling things "too easy" 😂
Keep it away from Stompy!
You may like disc golf! Very similar mechanics to this, but no returning death stick
Yay, new vid
Ayyyy my friend and I bought that foam boomerang on amazon two weeks ago! It's pretty fun, and when thrown properly it doesn't hurt when it comes back to you. Camera mans problem was he was releasing too low.
Maya has the energy of an only child that parents force her go play outside
I think the biggest hurdle this video was Maya not being able to catch, not the boomerang

Love it :)
That edit was WILD hahahaha
that bird sounds like the hazmat guys from monsters inc

The Uncharted music made me really smile when it came on. 3:48
Maya i can actually relate to this, my fear wasn’t of spinning stuff just fast stuff flying at me in general, mostly frisbees! they are more unpredictable than balls, and my grandma actually found me an ‘Aerobie Squidgie’ rubber frisbee and honestly i would play with it now rather than a hard disc because im still kinda scared of them and its just floppy and fun and flies just as well!
Hello everyone from the maya stream
I love these last few thumb nails.
The dolphin sounds are perfect lol
As someone who was knocked out by a boomerang as a kid, GG for powering through the fear. .Though to be fair someone else threw it.
Gloves might’ve been a smart idea
Maya is the only person who thinks Caddyshack was a horror movie.
good one
Boomerangs are deadly weapons.
