    There is absolutely no reason or logic as to why YT has been recommending these Michael Davis videos to me.... but I sure am glad they did. He's fantastic. Its so simple and all comes down to perfect timing and execution.

    • @nam3ey
      @nam3ey Před 2 lety

      @burteriksson funny is subjective. We all have different humor. So you are wrong, if someone isnt funny to YOU, that doesnt make them automatically not a comedian.
      Lmao, you just got owned by a 13 year old.
      Also youtube tip, when you want to reply to someone just click the reply button under their comment, but if you're on mobile, click their comment.

    • @nam3ey
      @nam3ey Před 2 lety

      @burteriksson the reason i assumed you didnt understand the concept of funny is because you said adam sandler, (the comedian millionaire) is unfunny. It seemed like you were saying he is unfunny in general.
      Ok i made several grammar errors? How is this relevant to our argument? this is youtube, you dont have to have great grammer when you are commenting under a youtube video.
      It seems like you still arent replying to me correctly, im not getting your replies in my notifications. Hence the reason i was a hour late to reply to you.

      @AutPen38 Před 2 lety

      The 80s and 90s are a long time ago. There aren't many 68 year old performers on TV any more. I think Michael spent several years in a vaudeville/cabaret/circus/restaurant place a bit like Cirque du Soleil, but many other TV performers of his era ended up on cruise ships, or in Vegas, if they didn't simply retire. He's still alive though and presumably can still juggle and tell jokes with his friends and family and maybe enjoy reading comments on CZcams.

      @tomitstube Před 4 lety +4

      it's a great trick, my guess is this. notice the right hand holding the rod by the finger tips, the fake hand is concealed underneath his hand and in place. you can see the right hand stays fixed when he shows it. the slight of hand is removing his real hand, very quickly, and by raising the cloth it helps him make the move and conceal it. he does all of this with great skill of course.
