  • What up Bush Fam!! Back with the first video of 2023!! Let's start this year off right!!
    2022 was a tough year for a lot of people but I'm here to say keep fighting for your peace, we got this! Much love to you all!
    Glad to see all the continued support I received in 2022! It really means a lot to me. Thank you for being patient with me and trusting me to deliver a funny video for you all to enjoy. I hope everyone gets a chance to laugh at least once today from my video. If so then I did my job.
    Almost forgot, it was just a beer, life goes on đŸ’ȘđŸŸ
    I Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their week and Happy New Year!!
    Be nice.

    The way the mothers laugh when you scare their child reminds me of how my grandmother and mother used to scare me - as a game it was fun growing up. My grandmother would find a spot and wait for 30 minutes to get someone - talk about committed to laughter, you know? We are all so glad you are back - We've missed you greatly.

  • @maxxod1
    @maxxod1 Pƙed rokem +111

    I don’t think it’s scares that keeps me coming back, although they are a definite plus. I think it’s mostly how positive you are and seeing all of those people enjoying a simple surprise in their day. BTW the outro song always puts a smile on my face. Glad to see you this early in 2023.

    When I first started watching about a year ago, the reactions of the scares, the laughter after the scares, is what I thought, made me check everyday for a new video. Today, after a year, I realized that what brings me back the most, is the ending of the video, when you show all the love between you, and all the people you do not know. That is what I love about you so much. Joe, you are so amazing... ❀

Ive watched you grow 10 fold and you have earned every bit of it. Tribal People React is huge for you bro. That will bring you into a whole new audience that you could have possibly never tapped into otherwise. The beer thing sucked, but you handled it correctly.

    Happy New Year, Joe. May the best days of 2022 be the worst of 2023.
    Wish you all the best for yourself and your family. And that is a bit selfish, because if you're OK, we get a lot of Texas Bushman videos. 😀

    You're the "GOAT"! Thank you for all of the laughter and screams that you bring to those unaware in their journeys and to those of us watching the videos.

    Joe, the guy at 11:30 is a "takes one to know one" kinda guy if you know what I mean. He must be really fun at parties. I've watched thousands of video's and yours are the only one's that I'm laughing the whole time. Thank you. How and when did you come up with this idea? I wish you would come down to Miami Florida and catch me off guard and scare me! đŸ˜łđŸ˜đŸ€Ł That would be awesome. My condolences to you and your family for your recent loss of your father. I'm sure you miss him dearly. I hope you have a great night and Happy New Year.
