Damn what a set up. He let everyone decide for themselves what the worst thing could be, then totally broke that tense feeling in the air. Genius formula.
It's all about building that tension. I used to do standup(wasn't too bad, but not great, I have an old video on my page if you wanna check it out)and have tons of respect for Anthony. He's an amazing writer. Most comedians pull from life experience(myself included.) You don't see many pure joke writers like Anthony these days, and his delivery/timing are incredibly precise.
His timing is amazing. I've never been able to drop a baby and scoop it up without anyone noticing. If this were an Olympic sport, like it should be, he'd be the Usain Bolt of baby dropping.
Guys, Mr Jeslnik is talking about making comments and political views. As well as the way peoppe overreact when you drop a small thought (maybe Tweets) on social media. He had just previously spoken about the political climate, and was actually continuing his commentary on that using symbolism/metaphor.
@JoshNortonalias Really? But how would you know... i mean logically it follows. He also ends this particular Special talking about abortion rights (a political topic). So, I'm inclined to think he really was playing with symbolism/metaphor. But it's all good. You're entitled to your interpretation :-)
Fran Naranđa if you decide to have eight more with him, and drop all the of them, I can carry them out ten at a time to try and save them from the medics, so I can cunt punt them off the cliff before they get their creepy hands on them precious babies smh
Idk if it's just me but I feel like Anthony is hella underrated. I don't feel like he's talked about enough for how damn good he is. I mean in this joke he purposefully digs himself into a hole with the set-up, just to win everyone back with the baby line. You can feel the tension in the room right before his punchline, which in itself sets up the rest of the jokes. It's just brilliant and ballsy and he's always tip toeing those two lines. He's a top of the line "word artist" lol.
It’s amazing how he tells hilarious jokes about dropping babies for more than 4 minutes, yet his last punchline is funnier than anything he said previously!
There's no such thing as sick humor. Secondly, that statement makes it sound like your sample size of dark comedy is really small, or maybe that you just have a shitty memory.
"Dropping the baby" is not the punchline. That's the setup, he says it straight from the beginning. The punchline is the whole "three flights of stairs bit".
I have a feeling you’d like Tik Tok. Gen Z is the generation that actively jokes on killing themselves. You live in the best generation for edgy humor (but also the worst because we happen to be far more sensitive)
Masterful delivery of his stage character, audience awareness and timing it is just top shelf skills. You can see him making sure he keeps them “disturbingly hooked” though out the joke.
He has terminator speech deadpan delivery. And the topics are hardcore. Guys a beast lol. He won't make you laugh out the loudest but his jokes will knock you back.
I dropped my youngest once. Was watching Borat and that crazy scene where they were wrestling naked and then running thru the hotel. It was thick pile carpet. She’s 12 and all good.
@@mrcoldman1515 yes, probably just his latest, he might not drop another one for a long time. Drop another special, not babies, we know he does that all the time. He doesn't do alot of specials, but he does tour often.
This got dark-- he lulled the audience into complacency, so they were complicit in the guilt when his actions increasingly grew more psychotic. A very well-crafted, sick joke. It's as if he said, "Oh, you think there are some things too awful to laugh at? Really? Let me tell you about my predilection for dropping babies, deliberately." Clever man.
i love the dude. hes funny as hell. people love telling how much this dislike jokes, but jokes have categories. and theirs a categorie for everyone. if you end up not liking the joke, then your seeing the wrong comedian just move on. Anthony is for dark souls. love the facial hair transition btw. you were clean shaven when i saw you last and then full beard lol
If *Ryan Reynolds* and *Dane cook* had a baby, Then that baby grew up in the Bates motel and one day decided to leave as an adult. You would have *Anthony Jeselnik*
this man....idk how i just discovered him but wow, he is the only comedian so far to make me laugh to the point i was coughing 🤣 i love dark humor and he just knows how to steer his jokes perfectly lmao a true genius really
One of the only respectable stand up comedians left. Doesn't pander to his audience for cheap laughs. Says absolutely horrible things, pushing the boundaries of this PC culture and makes them hilarious. This is a REAL comedian.
Of Plagues that is an extremely narrow view of comedy, plenty of comedians have been funny without being horribly offensive. Being offensive is the easiest and cheapest type of comedy. People have been brainwashed into believing offensive = comedy. Jeselnik is little more than a tool for the ruling class who constantly try to degrade us.
This guy is good at keeping his composure while telling jokes. You know they joke is going to be good when he starts to crack a smile before the punchline.
It's not too complex. I don't think there's a group of people who just don't get it. Maybe it's not complex enough. His timing is good, but straight dead pan has been done to death. A little predictable
So glad I found this group,, I've been punching baby's for a lot of years now,, I'm just glad I'm not the only one with this hobby!!! I knew I wasn't alone...
Dark comedy is like a dead baby. It never gets old.
Deez Nuts I see what u did there!!! 🤣
Deez Nuts great user name too!! 🥜
And just like that dead baby this joke hasn't aged well.
Stalin says, dark comedy is like food. Not everyone gets it.

Can we just talk about your picture.. iconic
It's in the title of the video

Don’t be
Lets stop this conversation please
@Derek McCumber whats your style of joke?
@@TheNormanmurk thknsa for editeing this
His timing is amazing. I've never been able to drop a baby and scoop it up without anyone noticing. If this were an Olympic sport, like it should be, he'd be the Usain Bolt of baby dropping.
“Its a two step process, maybe less...”
😂
that last example sounded like a 40 step process
Step 1: Hold baby
Step 2: Don't
@@MrPainkiller616
(1) drop baby
(2) scoop it back up
"I don't think I've held a baby to completion."
LMAO what does that even mean?!?!
That he never held a baby all the way until the parents asked the baby back, he always dropped it.
It means a pregnant woman completing the birthing process. He's playing off that concept.

Same reason he’s only holding it with one hand
This man dropping truth bombs like he drops babies.
I see what you did there.🤣
that too 3 floors deep
His delivery is John Malkovich doing a Christopher Walken impression.
That's exactly what I was thinking 😄
Spot on.
Came here to make a John Malkovich comment.
Seems I’m 9 months too slow.
Was going to say he sounds like John malkovich in con air.
oh my god, you're right
"And no1 was the wiser.. Especially that baby". That was sucha killer joke.
I like how he had everybody on the edge of their seats and then says have you ever dropped a baby lol
“Your ever held a baby...how could you not?” Lol dying
Just like that baby
That wasnt the joke, you JUST listened to it and you still messed this up
Dropping them is OK. It's when you throw them people get super angry.
Crazy right?! People are stupid, its just a simple throw
That beard and kinda-grey-ish hair. Kinda makes me wanna have his babies... As a man... And drop them.
Twice.
Have them twice. Buy one get one.

You drop one baby and you’re never invited again.

@@Loonaticx baby showers
@@TheAustinGuy fair play
Jason Cuellar if it’s a baby shower then it would probably be drowned rather than dropped, logically.

Netflix is a joke should change the title from giving away the punchline. 🤷
Yea that was stupid
Agreed, that great setup is ruined before you watch the video. Glad I watched the special first.
Idiots
true, but if you're just trying to look it up after already watching it, most people are just going to type "dropping a baby"
"Dropping the baby" is not the punchline. That's the setup, he says it straight from the beginning. The punchline is the whole "three flights of stairs bit".
His timing is legendary. Love him.
One of my favorite comedians. I love dark humor 😁😍
Gotta hint of Christopher Walken in his voice
weaselbomber yes that’s it you’re right
Damn I was just trying to figure out who he sounded like. You nailed it
I'd say more like John Malkovich.
Balloaks You can hear Christopher Walken talking about dropping babies.
@@balloakz9857 Exactly what I thought. Got super Cyrus the Virus vibes from Con Air from this!
His timing and delivery and misdirection is easily in that top 1% of all comics. You can tell he works hard at his craft.
“You all just clapped for a dead baby” - Louis CK
Best dark comic alive today.
Fan with baby: I'm a big fan can you tell me a joke?
Anthony: Sure, hand me your baby and I'll pretend like it's a microphone.
Then walks away
Mic drop xD
"yeah... For a little bit"
Omygod im dyinggg
Finally, in 2019 ,dead baby jokes are making a comeback.
I have a feeling you’d like Tik Tok. Gen Z is the generation that actively jokes on killing themselves. You live in the best generation for edgy humor (but also the worst because we happen to be far more sensitive)
Unlike the babies
Homosexuality My Dear Watson everyone jokes about killing themselves my guy
In fact, Your comment made me wanna kill myself just a lil bit
Those dropped babies aren't dead yet...
How do you make a dead baby float?
Take your foot off em
He creates a bubble of tension among the audience and then effortlessly pops it and it makes the whole bit
I hear the Walken, but I'm also getting some Malkovich too.
i love the way he says ‘baby’
the serious buildup........and then........babies dropping everywhere
Quite possibly the best joke I’ve ever heard! Perfect delivery… absolutely perfect! “it’s a two step process… maybe less…”
Masterful delivery of his stage character, audience awareness and timing it is just top shelf skills. You can see him making sure he keeps them “disturbingly hooked” though out the joke.
That hint of a smile at the final punchline in the video…

He looks so different with facial hair
Worse!
I like it....hes a grown ass man lol
@@suzyflorida1193 much much better and hot!
Sexy
I could only tell it was him because the voice lol
My favorite thing about him is how difficult it is to get to the point before he does. He’s always keeping an audience on their toes! Love it!
I don’t think I’ve ever held a baby...to completion
Funny as hell and DAMN, he looks good! Looks like a Terminator hipster. Slaying whole audiences with his lethal jokes.
"...to completion." Fucking genius.

I heard this bit a million times now and I still have to laugh so hard that half of the times I drop my baby.
He's amazing!
At least he doesn't spike them.
That shit is hard to get off a nice carpet.
I've seen hundreds of comics. This guy has THEE BEST delivery of all time.
When I become a dad. I'll go and meet this guy. And give him my baby. And tell him, "Drop this baby like a beat"
Love his show paced delivery and sexy voice.
Great relaxing laughs before bed.
Anthony at 3:56 sounds like Christopher Walken
Such a patient comic.
He's the first guy to make me laugh at the expense of a dead baby.. genius
He’s like an evil Stephen Wright! He’s also probably the most well read, intelligent, cogent, and diverse comics out there today! Amazing!!
