- I am not a busker, but I do put myself to the test by posing in public as a statue intending to win. My mission is to spread happiness by making impossible moments possible.

Frequently asked questions:
II live in Arizona and perform in the beautiful city of Scottsdale. Nicknamed the West's most Western town, Old town Scottsdale is a popular destination for locals and visitors alike. The art and architecture recreate the ambiance of the old west. Which is why I chose a cowboy as my character! I blend right in.
Needless to say, Arizona is a desert and the weather makes it too hot to perform most of the year. December to April are the only months when I might have a chance to perform on weekends.
This is my Social experiment
I am an artist and this is my interpretation of interactive art.
Attempting to pose in public as a bronze statue is a challenge. The last thing I want is to appear like a person who thinks they look like a statue. I've seen 'living statues before and I wasn't fooled and I think I can't be fooled. In fact, I'll bet whoever is reading this doesn't think they could be fooled either.
That is what everyone in my videos said before meeting me.
I don't hand out business cards or promote CZcams while performing. It only invites conversation which I avoid for the sake of the next opportunity which I wouldn't want to spoil.
I first tried this just to see if it was even possible.
THIS IS NOT A 'PRANK" Scaring people is not my intention. I am not out to invade people's 'space', shout or yell 'boo!' at people who are minding their own business. (unless I am bored) I prefer to be called amazing, not #$#&!!. Many more people pass by oblivious, to my presence.
I just sit and mind my own business. I believe using this unique approach is why I am welcomed and supported by the city.
Have I ever upset anyone?
I have never had a negative reaction, well once.
I've never been intentionally hit, or been bitten by a dog. No heart attacks. Using my approach, I am not to blame if someone mistakes me for a statue. It's not my fault.
Besides, everyone is too busy laughing.
I make a one in a million moment possible and who the lucky person is totally at random.
Timing is not up to me most of the time. Most people touch me as they sit and realize something is up before the right time. Each person is different and I try to wait for the right time to reveal myself. Sometimes they get away before I make my move.
I am sorry for the quality of the video. Filming was an after thought and my lack of experience shows. Also, the way I concealed my camera interfered with the sound and picture. I have spent money on a new camera and it was problematic and ultimately stopped functioning.. I have used an old Canon that has never failed me. I can sacrifice the quality if it means confidence that I'm capturing the moment with a camera that is reliable.
My costume is just old clothes and A LOT of paint. Metallic Bronze paint. Nothing special. For make up I use black eyeliner for a base and metallic creme makeup. I create texture using a small screen.
It takes under an hour to be ready to go. Removing the makeup using soap and water is what takes hours.
Finally, SUBSCRIBE it's free!
I need everyone to share my videos with friends and family and share using all social media sites to help me spread the laughter.
to thank you...
I'll have a NEW video every Saturday morning
until January 2020 (or longer?)
Please

I like how gentle he is when scaring older people, like waiting them to settle before moving. Great videos budd
@Extraordinary He can see the legs tho
I noticed that, too. He's careful.
bronzie is Always kind to the kis too.
I like how the husband set up his wife to get scared at 3:00
0:50
Guy was so happy that he leaped.
Oh,my gosh, bronze cowboy, YOUR becoming the MAIN attraction. YOUR A STAR.
Superstar!
Me: see's that there's 68 likes on this comment
Also me: i know what i must do
in these dark times, you're one of the few people who has replaced my tears of grief with tears of laughter. Thank you so much Bronze Cowboy
welcome! THANK YOU! and thank you for watching my videos!
@@BronzeCowboy Thank you so much for the shout out :3
It’s only as dark as you allow it to be...
I tip my hat back at you for that funny moment when the man was scared and his buddy actually jump in the air. So funny.
Granny Fan
Granny, those reactions are so precious and what make some of my videos more special than others. When everyone gets involved and reacts with such enthusiasm and I capture it all on film... that is a winner in my book! I thank you for that observation, Granny and for watching my videos, as always! LOVE from BC!
Bronze Cowboy 🤠 we had a death this week with lots of tears and today our oldest grand child becomes a Doctor at the graduation which because of health reason I can't attend. I've encouraged GChild every step of the way everyday. So tears have flowed because I really wanted to be there. So you see your gift 🎁 of this video actually brought me into a giggle. I really needed it. Sometimes we do something good and don't realize that we gave a gift to someone that needed it at the time. Your video was a 🎁. It taught me out of darkness of tears there's alway sunshine shinning through. The grief of losing a family member hurts but happy at the same time because he's out of pain that cancer gives a person is something else. We've lost 8 in our family to cancer.
Granny
Granny, I am so sorry to hear such sad news at such a time when your grandchild is celebrating a great achievement. My condolences for your loss and my Congratulations, for you have a Doctor in your family, wow that is a something to be proud of. Cancer is no friend of mine... it claimed my Mother when I was just 5 and my Father when I turned 18. Now, my wife's family is struggling through this awful disease... we just lost a cousin age 55 and an uncle was just given 6 months of life by the doctors. Terrible... It warms my heart to know that I have helped bring you some comfort in difficult times like these. Thank you for sharing and you are in my prayers.
That was good!👍👍😁😁😁
@@TUSSCANNY My 86 year old neighbor died three weeks ago one week after his wife died. I really miss him. 😞
Good natured fun and laughter. Medicine for the soul.
This was pure magic and I appreciate that you didn't interrupt any of the reactions with slow motion.
ask him what his name is, IM TO AFRAID. priceless. it is so heart warming to see people laugh that way. thank you keith for all the happiness you give to others. your character may be of bronze, but your heart is pure gold. may god bless you.
sly 23 I could not agree with you more
sly 23...I agree with you 100 % I Love ALL his videos, Laughter makes the go round & round...GOD Bless you !!!
* TOO
** God
lol that man set up his wife hahaha
I love how careful you are with little kids, trying not to scare them too badly. With everyone, for that matter. Love it
I keep trying to convey that the purpose of my performance is purely an ARTISTIC CHALLENGE. I really want to execute the most convincing rendition of a statue that I fool everyone. Success to me is when people walk past completely unaware that I am a person at all. I AM NOT trying to scare anyone. If that were the case I would jump out at everyone walking by and scream BOO! Instead it is only those people who get to curious and close or sit for a picture that I inevitably surprise! And instead of being shocked, they are amazed that I was able to fool them so well! That is the difference between me and a lot of 'pranks' on You Tube. I am not after viral videos I am after something more substantial, unforgettable moments that become fun memories for everyone I meet. Jim, Thank you for watching my videos!
@@BronzeCowboy Your suit is VERY convincing; you hold still so well, at times it looks like you put an actual statue there. Your videos are wonderful and I love your idea and work!
Well done!!
Oh my goodness , so so funny today. Just the best.
Hugs, Granny Fan
Another winner, Cowboy! You created a lot of memories for people this day. A cheerful heart is good medicine.
I love the reaction of the one fellows friend. He thought it was so funny he jumped in the air..... Priceless!
I'm truly impressed, your there to entertain but also to make some money and when you get someone like the older lady who is just looking for a seat you show no signs of wanting to clear the seat for others whom you can surprise. We all can learn from your patients and kindness.
When the lady dropped her cane at 4:35 , he should have picked it up and handed it to her !
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤗
That's what I thought also! 👍
@@BigDanOz read his caption when this happened. he wanted to, but didn't want to scare her. talk about a moral dilemma. i respect his decision.
Absolutely the best live statue performer I’ve seen, a lot of others look like a person pretending to be a statue, you spot it straight away, this is different, I would have been fooled, you’re very good at your art 👍
THANK YOU!!!! YOU GET IT!!! You realize what I want people to see... how difficult it must be (and IS) to pull off such an illusion in broad daylight and have people close enough to touch you and still be fooled! Thank you
Bronze Cowboy you’re welcome, beyond your costume, which is amazing, I can see your very good at reading people, you’re not yelling “boo” to deliberately scare people, revealing yourself at the right time, you’re the perfect example of a live statue done right.
The Doctor is hard at it today. That one guy was so happy that he was jumping for joy at seeing his Father(?) get the bejeebers scared out of him. So great to see and hear all the screams and laughter that goes on.
What I really love about you is that you are good, clean fun that families can enjoy. Your art isn't vulgar or obscene like a lot of others going for shock value. Yours is pure.
Marc, I thank you for that observation and for watching my videos! Yes, I could have gone the other route and chose to focus on the 'viral' value of my videos at the expense of others, scaring the heck out of people is not my game, creating a difficult illusion is. I think actually trying to fool people is much harder than scaring them, and they can appreciate that more and they do. That is reflected in their reactions and in my videos.
You brighten our days with laughter. 😂These were so funny. Lol. Thanks for the video. 👍👍👍❤️
He may be bronze in the outside, but he definitely has a heart of gold.
Beautiful sun on the wall,the musician who is seen in many of your videos,wonderful people, everything was great about this video.
awesome! Thanks for noticing!
Your timing is flawless! I love this kind of humor.. No one gets hurt, no mega dollar budget.. Just good timing and patience!
J1I19M7M4Y Thank you for watching my videos!
The guy jumping around was the best one.
from Tunisia...unfortunately no nobel prize for joy...happiness...even for a moment...i think you have a good sleep bronze cowboy with all those laughs in the head...you serve to something rare and precious. ( sorry for my english ).
I understand what you are saying...and Thank you for watching my videos! Love Tunisia
Had a headache all night, clicked on BC video and 10 minutes and 39 seconds later my headache is gone, thank you kind sir.
laughter is the best medicine!
I Love it, You always make everyone happy , that makes a great day.
I like that guy!! I had made the same job in Germany!! So,i new how hard it ist,to stand or sit on one place...... With no move,no breathe....... And with a lot of FUN 🤭😁😂🤣!!!!!
Keith, camera angle was perfect! And the way you looked at the camera when you "got 'em", priceless! It REALLY ADDS to your video. Your eyes are mesmerizing, by the way 😉. The elderly lady with the cane joining in was great. She did dead pan about as good as you. Loved it. Thanks again!
Cynthia. Thank you for watching my videos! I thought my timing was off a bit on this video...
@@BronzeCowboy you were not off at all. Cracking a smile when that younger guy started to jump ground like a kangaroo after he got his friend or relative the older man added to it. I was literally laughing out loud. It's my pleasure to watch your videos and thank you. God bless
@@cynthiaahern9081 When the older lady with the cane wished I had moved when they took the picture, that is where I could have moved sooner. HOWEVER, one thing that bothers me is when someone wants to set someone up and instead of having them sit beside me, they stay seated and tell the person they want to scare to take a picture, thinking it will surprise them... THAT NEVER WORKS! If you want to surprise someone tell them to sit next to me! Not, take the picture... You want to be the one taking the picture of the person being surprised NOT the other way around, why, why, why, do people not understand that? It happens ALL the time and really frustrates me because I never talk so I cannot explain it to them.
@@BronzeCowboy lol. Yes I see where you're coming from. It may be because the person that wants to set them up wants to see them surprised which still doesn't make much sense because they would seem more surprised getting their picture taken while seated beside you. Maybe you're just so likeable that no one wants to move? And the ones not moving think they're more in on the game. Yes we people are an odd bunch at times. Still you make great entertainment that's fun and safe. I hope your makeup is safe. You don't want to end up like the Tin Man in Wizard of Oz.
@@cynthiaahern9081 I think I will be okay... with the makeup... I chose to use eyeliner thinking that what could be safer since it is used around the eyes. I'll have to check out what happened to the tin man.
So many people setting up their spouses and other family members... Now that's love for ya!
4:40 That lady had the *best* time. Not only to have the fun of being 'gotten' but a front-row seat for the next 'getting'! And the 'high school' hit at 10:05! The best!
It's so very very good and funny with lovely scenes! I love it. Many thanks for you! 😂👌❤😊
I can’t stop watching these videos. Bronze Cowboy is the best.
My day today was just terrible.......all day........but tonight watching this video, I was laughing for the first time all day. So I thank you from the bottom of my weary heart!!!!!!!!! God Bless!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;-)

Thank you for make people happy and laugh 🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖 big kiss from fan from thailand😁😁😁
You are welcome! I would love to visit Thailand someday!
@@BronzeCowboy 🙏🙏🙏
Very good and very nice. Fantastic... sir.
Hugs to Bronze Cowboy.
You still manage to bronze people even with the wind blowing your jacket and possibly giving you away.
Good observation! When I watch other living statue performers I notice things like that and try to take that into consideration when crafting my costume... that is one reason why I hate windy days! And, why you see me trying to pull my vest (jacket) tight around my body because I could feel it flopping against my back. On windy days I prefer sitting on a bench for that reason. But this day was so cool I had the chance to sit in this location and not worry about the Sun cooking me so I took the opportunity to spend a few minutes there.
His videos are so much fun, the bronze cowboy spreads joy , i,m from Brazil
That ornery old lady setting people up for you. 👌😀
