No one will even come close to his genius. He could sing, dance, conduct orchestra, speak many languages ( gibberish as well), a comedian, Chinese chef, pilot & ambassador for children’s charities.
You were never disappointed with Danny he was really funny good singer all round enterainer his movies were entertaining Value for money even in 2024 Danny Kaye is funny look up his movies you wont be sorry a king of comedy 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
He is the best of the best of the best. No one has ever made me laugh harder so that I couldn't breathe and for so long as Danny Kaye did and still does. He was a monster.
Amazing that he acts with his whole body - his hands, shoulders, face, legs, everything. Yet he makes it seems so easy, when it is in fact hard as f. Ive only come to know of him a few weeks ago, randomly, when the court jester was on TV and I couldnt look away. What a brilliant man.
I have loved Danny Kaye all my life. He makes me laugh, but also he's an amazing singer. But I've always thought his ability to not have his tongue tie into a knot and break off was his greatest talent because if I was given this material, I'm pretty sure my tongue would kill itself.
I'm pretty sure he wrote much of the tongue twisting stuff, he wouldn't have been given it. Who, other than someone who can do that, could even think it to write it into a script! The original script probably had loads of gap sections with just 'Danny Ad-lib section' or something.
Julie MacAndrews in the bloody antisemitic world today the Christians would have bowed to the Muslim b.s. any Jew. He was not inly talented but a great humanitarian who worked tirelessly for children around the world. Something no Muslim ever did not ever will. Yet Christians swallow every crap Muslim feed them against Jews today.
Danny Kaye was also a wonderful dancer and singer.The Court Jester is so funny.i am lucky to have the DVD for years.hard to get a copy these days.so great in White Christmas too. Yes he was indeed one of my favourites too.
Absolutely-remarkable! Splendidly-amusing! Mr Danny Kaye was well-known for his mimicking and spontaneous acts,for his tongue-twisting and harefooted songs,for his good and effectual gag scenes,and for his ingenious and amusing spiels.He was/will always be one of the greatest and funniest comics ever-tickled the audience worldwide and ever-clowned in the Hollywood show business.What I love most about this nice and versatile performer is his flair in evoking genuine and inventive hilarity.
I am So Happy to see this posted, and delighted at all of the comments here. I hope there will be a revival rather than anymore silly attempts at remaking a one and only.. impossible to describe, in a class by himself - a true genius as a performer and unparallelled as a humanitarian.
I tell you in spanish: MAGNÍFICO TRABAJO, "dkayefan"!!! Mr. Kaye, un artista fuera de serie. Único! Irrepetible! Gracias por compartirlo. Saludos desde Buenos Aires.
Bucky Brown I beg to differ, the man could sing dance and act superbly in comedy and drama. He also was a humanitarian. His work for UNICEF speaks for itself. A complex man maybe but to call him a "fruitcake " is totally erroneous.
I love Danny Kaye one of my most favorite actors. Thank you for making this video and also putting which movies it came from. Please post more about DK. Thank you!
That 'German' from him was absolute gibberish. :) Nonetheless, he was an amazing articulated man who had an incredible memory and improvisation talent and speed which was unmatched. I remember how many dialogs from him were quite long and shot in one scene. What a talent he was.

Danny Kaye was a phenomenon. Not a standup comedian--a Renaissance Man of show business who was also very funny. One of a kind, he was.
Indeed! :) Well Said,"Kirsten"! :)
He was good at comedy. Court Jester is my favorite movie of his. I also like White Christmas.
You were never disappointed with Danny he was really funny good singer all round enterainer his movies were entertaining
Value for money even in 2024 Danny Kaye is funny look up his movies you wont be sorry a king of comedy 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
HE could sing. He could dance. He could act... and he was HILARIOUS!!!!
¡Genio! ¡Único! ¡Irreemplazable!
Desde niña te adoré ♥️😂🤣🇦🇷
Brilliant actor, so versatile, there will never be another like him.
Such a brillant talent...sadly missed
1:58 I love his pugnacious "HM?" at the end, like "yeah I pronounced that completely wrong but who wants to challenge me on it?"
He is the best of the best of the best. No one has ever made me laugh harder so that I couldn't breathe and for so long as Danny Kaye did and still does. He was a monster.
Yes! The first time in my life I laughed so hard that I couldn't breathe was when he conducted "The Flight of the Bumblebee" with a flyswatter! :D

🤣👍 "The Court Jester" comes to my mind.
A 'talkies' dream come true, with a touch of 'Buster Keaton' styled physicality.
Amazing that he acts with his whole body - his hands, shoulders, face, legs, everything. Yet he makes it seems so easy, when it is in fact hard as f. Ive only come to know of him a few weeks ago, randomly, when the court jester was on TV and I couldnt look away. What a brilliant man.
Oh, thank you! Much appreciated!
He used to have my brother and I in stitches until our stomach ached. No one can come near his talent to entertain. Thank you for this. Howard
What an incredible talent ! Is there any man alive able of holding a candle to him ...?
If there is, you'd probably need a HUGE candle to find them 😉
One of the most talented people ever!!
He was the total package... singer, dancer, comic, actor... not to mention the work that he did for UNICEF
Danny Kaye was a wonderful entertainer. He is truly missed
nobody is better than him at this sort of thing with languages etc.....very talented in many othher ways too
Delightful man.
Awesome reminder of one of the greatest talents the entertainment industry ever had. Thank you so much for sharing.
Indeed! :) Well Said,"Char"! :)
By the time Danny Kaye got done with words, they couldn't even fit back into the dictionary.
I have always loved Danny Kaye. HE WAS A WONDER talented man.
I love Danny Kaye!!! And this video is hilarious. Thank you very much!!

Amazing, wonderful man!
And most of the English gibberish in Danny's tongue twisters was written by his wife, Sylvia Fine.
God broke the mold on this talented man!
He was frikken amazing and an all round talented performer...what a shame he is"nt with us today....

I tell you in spanish: MAGNÍFICO TRABAJO, "dkayefan"!!!
Mr. Kaye, un artista fuera de serie. Único! Irrepetible!
Gracias por compartirlo.
Saludos desde Buenos Aires.
A supremely versatile performer. With honesty and compassion written on his face. Thanks for sharing this clip.
His comedy was so childish and immature. Plus he was a fruit cake. How sad!
Bucky Brown I beg to differ, the man could sing dance and act superbly in comedy and drama. He also was a humanitarian. His work for UNICEF speaks for itself. A complex man maybe but to call him a "fruitcake " is totally erroneous.
The greatest entertainer I have seen.
a great all around actor he will be missed RIP Mr, Kaye
One of a kind, yes indeed. I love his talent.
Absolutley fabulous. What a talented man he was. I love watching his many films. Thank you for sharing this wonderful tribute of a great man.
Always incredibly amazing talent! Always, my favorite entertainer in my heart.
Amazing! Can't think of anyone who can compare. Thanks for the post.
I love Danny Kaye one of my most favorite actors. Thank you for making this video and also putting which movies it came from. Please post more about DK. Thank you!
He was very good with all of the accents. And his tongue twisters.
That 'German' from him was absolute gibberish. :) Nonetheless, he was an amazing articulated man who had an incredible memory and improvisation talent and speed which was unmatched.
I remember how many dialogs from him were quite long and shot in one scene. What a talent he was.
Loool i liked this guy. classic good vibes genuine funny and talented
Thank you for this great video - still love him so much, a really great actor!

He is my all time favorite ❤️
Awesome! Great job! Congratulations!
Magnífico .Me encanta Dany .Cómo me reí contigo de pequeña.
No modern equivalent. I am speechless. In a good way
I love this movie The Vessel with the pestle is the brew that is true
Espetacular! Gosto muito do Danny, obrigada por postar.
Thanks for sharing!
Very sadly missed, legend
One of the best old film's of Danny kay he is so funny love his film's
very clever man loved Danny Kaye
This is a great video, thanks for making it
I LOOOOVVVVVVEEEE THAT MAN!!
Versatility. Amazing. I fellin love with him in "Inspector General." Now, I see the DVD's sold at the dollar store for $1.00. Sad.
Amazing. Unique. True genius.
Did he imitate Charlie Chaplin, when he did "German"? 😂
Love and miss this man.
Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" - was there a sound track or wasn't it subtitled?
I don't think that was Charlie chaplin...
Peter Ustinov was amazing at this kind of stuff too, btw
The gift of gab. Yowza!!!!
Danny Kaye was the greatest comics ever, very clever man
Danny Kaye was a wonder. I saw him from a distance when on a visit to Mumbai .He was staying at the Taj.
heard alot of german ... danny kayes german is only one who can make me lol litteraly when hearing it
Court Jester is my favorite movie of his. I also like White Christmas. He was good at talking & singing fast.
A touch of Yiddish he didn't shy away from.
He was actually Jewish from Brooklyn and spoke with a NY accent. Great video of a great man!!!
Love that you wrote with a Yiddish syntax, no?
וירטואוז אמיתי.
I f he lived in the medieval times, he would never be beheaded. The charm and known languages would save him.
funny danny kaye
this is where I learned my noises from HIM,,,,,,,,
Love Danny Kaye!!
funny. Danny. kaye 😂😅😂
I love how he seamlessly transitioned from German to English as soon as his stache fell off.
good song
THANK U BRO :))
Dany
Most of the music was written by Sylvia Fine wife of Danny Kaye.
Ahah. So well funny by impressionating italian, french acents. Like Charlie Chaplin did . Danny Kaye is one of best ever comedians
Danny Kaye, the best.
The only language Kaye REALLY spoke, besides English, was Yiddish.
Oh, I forgot; he also spoke GIBBERISH fluently, with an amazing number of accents!
fuuny danny kaye
danny kaye
So funny💃🏻💂🏼♂️🎭
my. Danny kaye
danny
"talks German like a native... an AFRICAN native"!! For once, someone got a joke in besides Danny, lol.
4:15
The German impression reminded me very much of Charly Chaplin.
❤❤
Would've been nice to have the name of the movies, but awesome compilation
funny danny kaye
funny
OH FOR "DANNIES" sake YOU TUBE watchers
GET YOUR LAUGHING GEAR HERE AT ONCE!
His humor never appealed to me but he was certainly an interesting, complex, driven man.
Thank you soooo much! I LOVE Danny! Do you know the name of the movie from 3:30-4:03 ? Thank you :)
That was from "The Kid from Brooklyn" as a part of a larger song "Pavlova."
His German is excellent...🤣
כמה הוא חסר לאנושות...
