How to pronounce the "th" sound in English?
I found myself can‘t pronounce the "th" sound very well in English, then I found a picture following and a video on youtube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nziFlq8LfoI
That was pretty much how i learnt to pronounce it at my high school, but it can't be right, right? That picture and the video make me laughing tears. XD
Can anyone help with how to pronounce the "th" sound in a right way? Thanks a lot!

There are two different th sounds in English, actually.
the, these, mother = tongue behind teeth, hum, then release
thumb, three, ninth = tongue between top and bottom teeth, blow out air, release

That's just how you do it. It usually won't break your teeth, though...

First of all brush your teeth.
