What It's Like To Play Barney For 10 Years
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ย. 2024
- Everyone recognizes the large purple dinosaur, but not many people know the man inside the costume. David Joyner played Barney for 10 years on TV and in live performances, and dancing around in that huge costume was not very easy. We spoke with Joyner about what it was like being one of the most famous children's characters of all time, and what he is up to now.

This man is literally the glue that has held my childhood together.
exactlyyyyyy
Mine too!
Same

He was the joy and sparks ⚡️ of our childhood I really enjoyed him
I don't really understand the hate that people had towards Barney the character. Not sure if people just won't admit that they liked him, but I literally loved and still love Barney. It holds a special place in my heart. I always looked forward to watching VHS and DVDs of Barney.
barney was my childhood, it's such a sweet show, i miss shows like these, when i was a child it was really conforting to watch lol
1. Barney can't really be enjoyed outside its target demographic, like Sesame Street.
2. Kids who are slightly outside the show's demographic have a fear of being seen as immature so they hate the show. Adults just hate it because it's kinda sickenly sweet (Does Barney have any negative emotions? Even Elmo lost his temper now and again).
3. How do you FIGURATIVELY love something?
That's what I call anti-barney humour. Of course, it has played a role in my childhood and have enjoyed some episodes, although it is nice to have very dark humour every now and then ahah.
Wait he was hated
Same thing with Mr. Rogers when I was growing up.
Why did I get this video after watching Barney Dies which was a giant inflatable Barney being ripped. Weird.
same
The purple cultist The way the world works aye
Same here.
lmao same
Same
This guy made my childhood. I was a total Barney baby
OMG I thought I was the only one. I love him.
Me too 🤸♀️
Me 3 I took a picture Barney stuffy on my 5 birthday.
I still know the song and sing it to my kids every day. I love Barney
And too
Didn’t expect to get this recommended to me considering I’m grown and haven’t watched Barney in years
TROYCETV lol 😂 the real shit is how come barney is black
Troyce! I just thinking you should do a video on what happened to Barney almost every body grew up watching this and I would love to here your view on this.
Yes please do a video on Barney
TROYCETV
Next they may recommend the Barney Outtakes.
I never knew there were Outtakes here on YT. They’re hilarious!
Be careful though. It might ruin your childhood if you let it.
I didn’t though
@@syneshiarivers9999 I swear I was thinking this as I was watching it lol
I’m glad he got to live out his dreams from when he was a child. Everyone rips on the dinosaur, but we all know he was a big part of a lot of our childhoods.
I was made fun of for watching barney but I didn't care, still made my parents take to see Barney on Ice LOL
No he wasn’t a part of my childhood
@@ShintaroShadow Here’s a trophy 🏆
@@ShintaroShadow Congrats. I'm sure sure you're very proud of yourself.
@Nick Selca Yaaas!!!
No matter how much hate Barney has, it's sweet the guy who played him decide to explain how he played him rather than being ashamed of.
Kenny Darmawan I don't know why is there hate for Barney? I grew up with it
And now he gets paid for sex... lol
Kenny Darmawan that ture
Kenny Darmawan he made bank. Why would he be ashamed.
Kenny Darmawan the meme King Barney
This man took a metaphysical, spiritual approach to being a giant purple kids character
If you listen, you might learn something.
@@bobbylewisjr5250 yeah, if I didn't listen why would I have that comment? Furthermore, how do you know exactly, what it is that I know, or what it is you're assuming I don't know? 😉✌🏿
@@Deezy_Ankh giant purple kids character
@@Deezy_Ankh Dinasar lov u
Makes it even better.
I feel bad for him for everyone hating his cute character. He did a great job as his actor
Krusty Krab what?! PPL ARE HATING ON THIS MAN? Wth
ah i remember when i was a kid singing the song together. My favourite childhood character
Ni b b a
I know right
It's almost like Jar Jar Binks in a way, people hated that character so much the actor considered killing himself, I feel if you put so much life into something and so many people say it's the worst thing ever, if you don't fully commit to loving that character, that hatred will kill you
I remember in kindergarten kids would say the guy who played barney smoked cigarettes and that was like this huge deal.
Turns out hes a super chill dude who only cares about vibing and spreading love.
Having been a smoker for over a decade, I can say there's now way I'm jumping around with this man's energy in a 120 ° dinosaur costume.
Those are probably lies
Oh man I've heard even worse rumors that the guy was a pedo. I'm so glad that he's just a third eye opened man craving bliss and peace and love
@@BubbleArcadia where did all these rumors come from
@@hoodiek6802 from random people on the internet
I have two things on my mind now:
1-he is such a nice person.i found that he is pretty cool in the way he talked about his work being barney
2-so this is the guy who selena gomez and demi lovato had a crush on back in the day
lol
ZACK dead 💀😂
Ha,lol!
ZACK that is what I was thinking
No it was Carey Stintson
how tf is he 53 he looks great for his age
Tara White thats really ironic😂
Daryl Dixon hey Daryl
Daryl Dixon he looks like an old 30 year old or a young 40 year old man
Daryl Dixon seriously?! Dude only looks late 30 at most 0_0
Daryl Dixon ...blck dnt crk...
My mom had an 8 hour loop tape of Barney when I was a toddler in the early 90,s. She said it would literally shut me up for 8 hours
Garrett Rose me too
Until now..barney still used to make kids stop for a while...
Dude omg me too, my mom had one too
I remember that. Of course, my sister in law might of kept rerunning the same 30+ minute tape.
Ha I had a tape like that but it was with blues clues
Dude you have my respect for wearing that big costume inside without suffering from dehydration
120 Degrees fahrenheit.
Astonishing
Holy shit i never knew being barney required so much shit
CringeO' Daddy shut up if you knew what barney was like and if you took your time to find out what those barney episodes are like you wouldn't be talking
+Sponge Bob i wasnt being sarcastic..
CringeO' Daddy lol
CringeO' Daddy lol
could say the character of barney was....
a two man job?
ironically, a similar thing happened with darth vader of the original trilogy.
everyone knows darth vader as james earl jones, but that was only the voice.
a man named david prowse was actually in the suit.
It’s a shame that I never knew who the real actor was behind Barney until today..
Why?
Me too sis haha it’s my childhood.

All the 90’s and 80’s babies were obsessed.
The comments were goin so well...
Lol 80s ???
Yup
Luis Martinez 🤦♀️ Barney started in the late 80s with the Backyard gang
@@justicelyric he just said 1991 to 2001 must of been a different barney .
Demi Lovato was on Barney when she was a kid, and she said she had a crush on the guy who played Barney because he was ripped because he had to be fit to be able to act in the suit haha
Wasn't justin beiber and debby ryan on there too?
@@shayla8301 No. The other was Selena Gomez.
That was a different guy Demi was talking about

The "I love you, you love me" lullaby was sung to me every night by my mother when I was a child. That song has a very special place in my heart.
It’s my favorite Barney song too
Mine too
I knew Barney was played by a black man he had too much soul with those dance moves
😂😂

🙃🙃🤣🤣🤣
He learned the dance moves from James Brown
JAY WAYY TOO FRESH 🤣🤣🤣🤣 facts
Sir, you were my childhood. I’m 27 years old and I am not afraid to admit that I still know every lyric to every song in the 90s Barney. I watched the same Barney tape for hours, over and over. For me, this gentleman and Bob West will always be Barney. Thank you for being a major part of my childhood.

Nothing makes me happier to know how much love and soul he put into barney, and the fact that hes proud to have played barney is beautiful. I wasn't a huge barney fan, but this makes me emotional.
Thanks for supplying me love and joy as a kid!

Barney was creepy to me as a kid. Especially with that creepy theme song "I love you" 😖. I'm never showing Barney to my kids knowing the actor studied tantra.
I can't believe I used to like this show. After a while, I actually believed Barney was the devil due to a TH-cam video. How can a giant creepy purple dinosaur provide you with happiness?
The guy explains the purpose of Tantra and still people keep thinking it's all about sex. Why'd he even bother? 🙄
Barney was my childhood.
You don't become Barney.
*Barney becomes you.*
*SOVIET RUSSIA INTENSIFIES*

*COMMUNISM HAS JOINED THE CHAT*
I use Barney as a Sex Toy .
GangMemberFake WTF LOL
P.S: no offence
...As a man who nearly sweltered to death inside a foam rubber deathtrap shaped into a Minion-Tm- on the opening day of a dollar store, I respect this guy for putting up with Barney for that length of time. The fact that he was able to hop around like that is also amazing, considering the weight of the suit.
If you're trying to set me off, forget it. I said not one word about Mr. Joyner's race.
In fact, you're the one who brought that up. (I'll let that set in while I move on to trying to spell things out for you).
I clearly said that, -well heck, if you'd have read the post instead of shooting off your mouth, you'd have known what I said.
The name of the costume is BARNEY!
Mr. Joyner was the one having to put up with the character. One that to a lot of children was for the most part a wonderful creation, but in reality was a hot, sweltering pile of foam rubber.
I only wore such a costume once and nearly suffocated, as I clearly stated. Mr. Joyner put up with wearing that purple death trap all those years.
That is why I said that I respected him. Get that through your chrome, you insolent twit.
Mr. Joyner was the guy in, (I respect THIS GUY for putting up with BARNEY for that length of time),- in case you were careless enough to miss that.
And as for the bit about hopping about, Think on it: The man himself said that the suit was a lump of lead.
And being able to hop around in said lump is an amazing feat.
Not one that many people would ATTEMPT to deal with, let alone have the patience or the nerve to pull off constantly for several hours a day for so many years.
And as far as the "white male" bit you spouted off, two things:
#1.This man said not one word during this video about anybody of any race making things hard for him, 'cept for that green' n' purple headache that just about cooked him on a daily basis.
#2. You're white yourself. So if it's, "White men", who're giving him trouble, then you must be doing something to him that I don't know about .
Speaking for myself, I ain't doing crap, save for paying respect to a man with more gumption than me. By MAN, I of course mean Mr. Joyner.
And to boot, if being made into a millionaire and getting booked for all of those great acting jobs is evidence of someone, "Making things hard for him", -then what world are you living in?
In fact, if that's evidence of being mistreated, then I wish that someone would mistreat ME that way.
As the judge probably said on that show Mr. Joyner played an attorney on, CASE CLOSED.
isaac Dyer BARENY IS BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ammannda Syltie hes purple
We going to ignore that the barney suit weighed 70 lbs. Medieval suits of armor weighed less than that.
...I weigh that much- (I’m underweight:,)
this guy was apart of my childhood. Thank you David Joyner
I like how this dude uploads a video about black holes and just after that a video about Barney the Dinosaur.

Aesthetic Clouds who said anything about black needing to sound ghetto? That’s an insinuation on your part cause maybe you feel that way? I said blacks have a certain dialect, like Beyoncé, Oprah, etc. there’s a dialect in the speech, There’s a black “accent” in most black ppl speech. This guy does not have it thus ppl thought he was white.

Oh wow
I was a Barney fan and I didn’t realize how much of a impact it had on my childhood. My best memories were watching it with my dad and going to the park right after dressed up like a princess. I think I still have my Barney bed sheets folded somewhere under layers of other old bed sheets in my moms closet. Damn, that says a lot. Cause after we moved, my childhood was not the same. It took a few years to feel like a happy kid again. Thanks Barney, you kept me safe from the chaos of reality before I became aware of what was happening around me.
Thank you for sharing 💕
Wait.. so BARNEY IS HIP HOP HARRY ?!?! ... Legend.
Elijah Jacob lolz he doesn't love to learn. Look at his dance steps.😂
Elijah Jacob hip hop harry sucks I want Barny back😢😢
Kinda sad to see how an iconic show from my childhood has decayed over time. Everyone back at elementary school thought Barney was stupid but I personally liked the show and thought it spread a positive message. I wish kids grew up watching it today instead of having to worry if they're bisexual, gay, or whatever else you want to throw out there. I miss back when you could just go out in the world and talk to people without feeling so much tension from politics and society. Kind of a somber mood to reminisce on those days now. Hopefully they will return in the years to come.
Kale Ling Remember the song they came up with later? Boy did my classmates hate him. Those were fun times.
Its nice to know that someone still has hope in this world

Mr. Julien COPIED COMMENT.
A BBC legend!!!
I grew up watching Barney the dinosaur! Barney is so underrated. He was popular when I was little, but now... I honestly rather have a four year old watch Barney than Paw patrol. Barney danced, sang songs and made arts and crafts with kids. It also got kids into exploring the world around them.
Jocelyne cupcake very true, plus paw patrol is annoying
Jocelyne cupcake yes, it made my childhood great
Jocelyne cupcake I agree,paw patrol is...uhh...not my type
Ikr lots of kids shows these days are dumb especially teen titans go
it's 2017 and I still watch it.
Barney was a woke black man who has Psych abilities wow I’m so happy

Yea, He sure is!
Of course he is he the legendary Barney.
Yesterday I got recommendation of Steve from "Blues Clues" and now this Barney guy, David! Totally made me happy seeing them again and knowing that they're doing good in their life. This made it look like we're getting some kind of closure to our childhood life. Amazing :)) God Bless them
That's how they got me!
*I thought he only played Barney inside the suit, but the actual voice was played by Bob West?*
That’s actually right. He didn’t do the voice. You really can’t do the voice inside the costume since you have to bite on a rod and nod your head up and down to move the mouth.
Christopher Woods you don’t bite a rob you just have your hand in the head to move the mouth
It’s says that in the video
Kinda like how James Earl Jones is just the voice of Darth Vader. Some people are just better for voice
Fun fact about this topic, Carroll Spinney was the body AND the voice of Big Bird on Sesame Street.
Thank you for living in my childhood

Wut Say hi barnney
After 2001, Barney wasn't the same.
Marvin the Maniac agreed
marioparty12345 the new costume actor made Barney detestable.
Marvin the Maniac yes . Although I was born in 95’ I still stayed with classic Barney . I couldn’t get right with the 2002+ Barney . I don’t even remember watching it tbh .
marioparty12345 I was born in 1996. My entire family (including myself) actually liked Barney until after my sister was born in 2001, which is when Joyner left.
Marvin the Maniac very understandable . Most everybody that knew the old Barney did the same thing . But I’m not gonna lie I did give Barney’s Colorful World a chance but it didn’t live up to the old shows . Should’ve known 🤷🏾♂️
3:38-3:41 there's a weird whisper did anyone else hear that ?
A Hol Yeah like "Shhhh......"
A Hol I think it's the fabric of his suit rubbing together
A Hol That was me.
A Hol oh shit

When he said "I loved everything about barney, but that chapter is gone." and showed toy barney... That hit real hard
you were the one with lil Selena and demi
saadiya khalid no he wasn't
saadiya khalid this guy quit Barnie in 2001. Selena and Demi got on Barnie in 2002 and was on Barnie until 2004. It was a different guy at the time. The guy is named Dean Wendt
yeah but that day thesse girls wasent even famous or singing!
*lil heroin
Dean Wendt took over voicing Barney, as this guy only "played" him inside the costume though.
He was the greatest era of Barney!!!
He was the reason why the show became popular. Carey Stinson never brought the same life to the character that he did.
Trayle Wilson THEE greatest 👌🏾
Yess that was the era I watched
No bullshit! And I remember him during the era of 91’ to 01’! I was born in 91’ so I’m pretty sure I was watching him after I came out the womb
Que Wilson right
always thought barney was a grown ass white guy lmao
me too
Same.
The original barney and the backyard gang in the 1980s when barney was dark purple and weird looking was a white man
Wow
vivi_ etc me tooo😭😭
I wish I could thank this man, in person, for being the cornerstone of my childhood. I loved Barney as a kid, and this just made me love him even more.
I can’t believe Barney is black. I thought he was white. I love you, Barney.
Yep. Same as the original Elmo.
He was white. His name is William George. He was accused of molesting the children on the show.
I love Barney that's my favorite cartoon show every in life Barney is the best ever I love Barney show I ever see

@@carolynmontgomery2177 oh damn that's awful. The person who use to play Elmo was a gay black man who was having relations with under age gay boys. Smh

Thank you

The Barney song kinda sounds like yankee doodle.
I still remember the lyrics, too!
Here goes nothing:
Barney's so gentle,
we sleep with him, we're making out with him...
Hahaha... haha... ha... get it? backwords lyrics...
Its not I love you, you love me it's I hate you do you agree.Do you agree Kaylandra😑😑😑😑

Google knows us very well.
Wow i mean i knew Barney wasnt real, but if this didnt pop upin my recommendations i would have never googled this, and ill be 26 in February.. i guess somethings from childhood u want to keep innocent.. i never wondered if Barney was a girl or boy black or white😱
Lol at everyone being surprised that he's older than he looks. Have none of you ever heard the saying "Black don't crack?"

I seem to be the odd guy out who wasn't a fan of Barney growing up. I'm not really sure why that was the case, but nonetheless, I have a newfound respect for the character because of this video and hearing about the man who played him. I think it's so cool that he so fondly remembers his time playing the character.
You're not that odd, my friend. Like you, as well, being introduced to the real man inside the costume and hearing about the effect the character had on his life, I am happy for him.
yeah, this dudes really out there

1. He’s 53!?! More like 33!
2. He’s such a caring and loving person. It’s great to know he’s proud of what he does and isn’t afraid to admit it.
He's 55 because of the video being two years ago
