"That was my fault..... I picked you."
Voting republican in a nutshell
“And I also gave you the apple”
As a magician, I’ve used that line so many times.
that punch line
Classic!
His breezy confidence level is over 9000.
Anime is pollinating through memes
Comes with that level of skill.
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!! IT BE!!!!
Too bad that's not really what Vegeta said... He really said 8000, but bad translators wrote it as 9000, so people continue to propagate this fallacy even after learning it's incorrect.
THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! IT'S BROKEN!
"I'm gonna throw the axe in the air, throw the knife, throw the cleaver. And run like hell"
Man that was a good line. This guy is just amazing. So glad I found this video
That and razor sharp bowling ball are my favorite bits
President + Performer with Deadly Weapon + Ford's Theater + Time = Comedy
What do you mean time
Sic semper tyrannis
Yeah - Herbert Hoover and vaudeville pickaxe juggler = "too soon'
@@prashikjadhav3954 it's the theater where Lincoln was shot learn some history
@@DFDalton1962 And you couldn't do it today either.
to perform this way you can't just be a smartass, you need real talent. this guy just happens to use humor to distract you from the fact he's an excellent juggler.
He's a tremendously talented juggler and comedian. The two talents comingle beautifully.
Yes... Otherwise, he would just be a talentless comedian... ?
:/
I agree hes a great juggler but idk about "excellent" and certainly not "tremendously talented"... the real talent, the real wonder behind this act is his raw remarkable persona and stage presence. His juggling, yes its very good and professional, but its far from top-class or even close to the greatest TECHNICAL jugglers in the world. For Michael Davis its not so much about technicality or complexity, rather its the ingenious mix of wit and humor that makes this so compelling.
@@SyenPie Yup. I watch these kind of comedies, cuz I don't even giggle for comedians who swear and throw racist slurs and call it comedy.
thanks for explaining it. if you hadn't mentioned this, i never would've known.
No obscene languages, no swearing, no insults to the crowd, just pure TALENT, SKILL and SENSE OF HUMOR.
And no time wasted. Compact and pithy wit.
Well, he did insult Senator Baker. :)
Pretty much saying "it's our fault for electing you".
Other than that - ye. Pretty clean act... had me laughing throughout..
He did insult the crowd
Easily one of my favourite comedians of all time, considering he never laughs at his own jokes
@@Skull19O1 Government officials don't count lol
When people are able to combine humor with insane skill it creates something truly great
No way will these weapons be allowed any where near the president today.
+Stefano Cortes , wow, good point (no pun intended)
+Louann Timochenko i thought he was being a little blunt
+vishal chan but the senator was pretty sharp with his throws.
+Stefano Cortes
Indeed, 2:58 secret service agent behind the president is not impressed..
way to ruin the flow..bro..
"Razor sharp bowling ball" kills me every single time.
Now that is entertainment.
This is the man that got me into juggling. Saw his special on HBO and went out and bought the book "How to Teach a Klutz to Juggle." Have been entertaining ever since. Michael Davis is the Master.
+rep sir
Ditto but in the UK and without the book 😎
very funny, what a laugh needed this, it has made my day. And to see all the old timers having such a great time, makes me feel wonderful.. I wish there were more of these, they leave a 85 yr old gal really happy today, Now my work will seem like i have been on a Holiday. Marilyn Dickstein
I hope you are okay, I'm leaving this comment here to remind you of this video. Hope you have a wonderful day if you see this.
I hope you are still doing well and ok. That message was posted 6 years ago when you were 85. Hello from Seattle Washington.

Andrew G she might be gone though
@@isithardtobevegan53 sadly :(
Watched this act a bunch of times at different shows/venues, and this is my favorite since he is playing to the president and other distinguished guests. Even though I know much of the jokes already, Mr. Davis was able to improvise enough to make this routine even more funny! Love it!
I too noticed its the same act over and over. No new material.....Lame
@@davenone7312 Well that is how people did things before internet.
Comedians using same jokes for 90% of their routine was normal/expected cause who was gonna call them out? Most people never saw them more than once or twice, and even if they did it would have been months if not years apart.
It is not cause they were lame, they did it cause like every other human back then (and now) they do the bare minimum required of them to get paid.
@@greatiusiterfector4519 Yes, they perfected their show and then took it on tour. I reckon they still do in many cases.
@@davenone7312 🙄
@@davenone7312 You poor little kid. You don't know what a touring comedian do I guess. hope you don't find out what stand-up comedians do with their materials. 🙄
Beats me how the 2 Secret Service guys don't crack a smile until just after 6:54!!
They have probably seen the act before. The juggler would have been required to show his entire act to the secret service beforehand to determine whether it would post a security risk before being approved to be part of the evening's the performance.
I was wondering why those 2 guys weren't laughing at first, but it makes sense now!
I dont see them
They probably had a bet
Dalton Watson ?
"this axe belong to George Washington just need to replace the handle...............and the head." Brilliant!
Ship of Theseus paradox.
Not forgetting Trigger's broom!
He's probably the funniest juggler ever!
ShutUpSveinn ...check out Frank Olivier
He's better than many standup comedians
@@rongermanjr not even close... Frank's sense of humor is appreciated by the less intelligent only...;)
Or is he the best comedian that can juggle
@@StealthySpace7 that's confirmed, but Mike can go higher than that😉
Comedy like this is just Gold.
rare gold
Spectacular act!
Here is the Original Semitic Text. YOU need to READ this
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF”
From the Ancient Semitic Scroll:
"Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3)
Ancient Semitic Direct Translation
Yad - "Behold The Hand"
He - "Behold the Breath"
Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Does anyone realize how beautiful this is?
Performing for the President of the United States of America. No animosity. No vitriol. Most likely he was absolutely honored to be able to do it.
With the most powerful Democrat in the nation two seats down, having a blast. Imagine that today.
RobMacKendrick
that’s the only way it could happen today... in the imagination.
Sadly, those days are as dead and buried as the two great men sitting in the first row.
Regardless of political affiliation or beliefs, they still managed to remain cordial toward
each other and the rest of the world of politics.
And he was not boycotted after this. ...
Fuck Regan
I don’t know how many years I’ve been watching this video but I do know it sends tears down my face every single time. I’m a juggler too but I’m in total awe of Davis’ delivery - world-class comic timing and perfectly clean yet hysterically funny - that is a hard, hard thing to do. What a legend.
he improvises too. Some of the jokes are spur of the moment. He's just a very talented entertainer comedian who happens to be a top notch juggler too.
This is damn fine comedy. You can tell by how no matter how much time passes, it still has its pizazz.
Those were the days my friend, we'd thought they'd never end..............we'd sing and laugh, forever and a day.
God I miss this man...
Great show. Funny act. Can't believe idiots give this a thumbs down.
Might be accident my phone makes me dislike random vids I watch and I only catch it if I reach and I'm like wtf why dislike?
Thumbs down for Regan
@@christophertanner7757 because he banned automatic firearms and gave amnesty to illegals? That's what I have against him
@@Mathew_Thomas I had no idea Michael Davis did that
probably because he repeats the same acts over and over multiple times. it is an amazing and funny act but ir gets boring after a while
What the heck I've never seen this incredibly talented man before he is awesome!!!!!
I saw this live when he performed it, Not only was he talented, And funny with some mild political humor, The nice thing about this was democrats and republicans laughing together. I miss the good old days!
When this comes up in my feed I cant help but watch it. No matter how many times ive seen it. Such a talented guy.
This sort of slow burn, low key comedy is almost extinct today.
Love the comment “It’s my fault I picked you”😍😆😅
...razor sharp bowling ball 😂
I remember watching this performance on TV back then. I had totally forgotten about this highly talented entertainer. Thanks for uploading.
What a brilliant guy. I love his act. Thank you for uploading
I’m glad I found this wonderful guy.
Awesome.
To play for President and Mrs Reagan.
Not if he has a conscience.
Entertainment doesn't get any better than this-- skillful, hilarious and perfect comic timing by Michael Davis! And always
nice to remember one of the best and classiest presidents in U.S. history.
Oh how I long for the days when Republicans and Democrats could be in the same room laughing.... 😭
Wanted to say something similar. Reagan wasn't my choice, but I still respected him and his office. The people voted and it was the "other guy's" turn. Even though he was on the other side of the aisle, you never got the idea he was actively trying to f**k over his political opponents and their supporters. Ironically, it was Reagan's dismantling of the Fairness Doctrine, that paved the way for the proliferation of unchecked RW propaganda, such as Limbaugh and Fox, which, over the last 40 years has been responsible for the extreme polarization of the country. Among their viewers, they have formented a distrust in science, media, government and education and directly led to Trump and the situation, this once great nation, faces.
@@CarbonTech19 Fairness Doctrine is unconstitutional. We are not China.
@@hermajesty52 I'm awaiting your equal outrage at anyone trying to deprive people of their 1st Amendment Right to free speech by trampling those rights using jackbooted thugs. You know, like China is doing in Hong Kong, for as you say, we have a Constitution to follow and no one is free to ignore it, least of all those that took a public sacred Oath to defend it.
@@CarbonTech19 agree with you on China
@@CarbonTech19 LOL RW propaganda? Ok.
I so needed this. Good talent, nice routine, but what i enjoyed the most was seeing two politicians (and spouses) from opposite parties sitting next to each other enjoying a good laugh. Oh the good old days when politicians fought hard, respected each other and at the end of the day left all that at the office and had no problem socializing together.
It took me a while to perfect the water juggling .... but I finally mastered it 😂👏👍
I have never seen an entertainer like him. I laughed so hard! Love it. Definitely would go see him!!!
This was fantastic. Good old clean comedy. We need more of that, in the troubled times. Thanks for posting this.
I love TH-cam, and this is why. I am a young teen and wasn't around to enjoy Michael Davis at that time. so thanks to TH-cam, I can still enjoy this timeless act. I find it fascinating how I am sitting here, laughing, and enjoying something older than me. I take for granted some of the technology we have, so I took the time to step back and admire it.
No words to describe how genuinely funny (AND THRILLING!) this fellow and his act are!
This is the fourth time ive watched it, after seeing it 5 years ago.
I laughed out loud. Hilarious! It was fun to see Ron and Nancy enjoying it so much. Brought back good memories.
I gotta say the older I grow the more I enjoy watching these old shows.
Such great humour, and what a gentlemen he must be.
Just look at all these great looking suited people, would love to be part of one show as well some day :^)
Indeed
I’ve just seen this guy for the first time… Absolutely brilliant. Bravo.
Too funny. This is the 5th time that I watched this and I still laugh.
Great Michael Davis. I didn't know him, but I won't forget him now. Great act!
How fitting that Ronald Reagan, who himself had a great sense of humor, was in the audiance and having a hell of a great time!
Pretty ballsy for Reagan to go to Fords theater while a guy throws around sharp knives
True skill and comedic presence.
Never out of date!
Regan's reactions are half the show
Ronald Reagan was absolutely pissing himself.😂
...and he was laughing at the juggler too
Yes, incontinence often manifests in the later stages of Alzheimer's.
Looks like we found the guy with no sense of humor. You're doing us Americans so proud!
@@Rob-uc2jh Classic!
Patrick Ancona ????????
Too bad he wouldn't remember that
Only time a dude went through the secret service metal detectors with flat out weapons and they said..."Ok your good"
Truly one-of-a-kind. Fantastically HILARIOUS, with great skills and AMAZING delivery!!!!!
Can you imagine Security being so lax, these days?
How is it lax? You suppose someone works for a decade to become a famous comedian just in the faint hope he can get an axe within throwing distance of the President one day? It’s 1000 times more likely to infiltrate the Secret Service who carry actual guns within an arm’s length of the President.
How have I ever missed this guy. Wow!!!! Hilarious comedian with unbelievable talent!
I love this performance. One of my very favorites. So glad it's posted. Thank you for sharing.
Whether or not you're a fan of Reagan, it shouldn't take away from the fact that this shit is still hilarious today.
Hysterical 🤣
And the president had a sense of humor.
@@perryrush6563 Well now he does, since Trump's not in office.
@@redefinitive
Not quite sure how to take that..
It being hilarious has nothing to do with Ronald Reagan. He's still the devil
Never heard of him before this showed up in my feed today. Wish we could see more performances and entertainers like this and fewer of almost anyone we have today.
They gave him a standing O there at end.
Love how he had to count his fingers after the axe tossing
This is pure golden quality entertainment, from a truely talented and well honed gentleman.
This guy was fantastic lol
It was so wholesome to see all of the elderly people having such a nice time. Plus this guy is hilarious and talented. Good video
You mean the people that were younger then, than our current president is today?
In both of the times I’ve seen this he gets the volunteer to throw the apple back prematurely. That is incredible skill for directing the crowd.
It was just too good...never to be replicated...amazing..
This is called talent
This is honestly one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen
This guy is HYSTERICAL! GREAT to have a morning wake up laugh!!!!! Had Tip O'Neill and REAGAN in stitches!!!!!
America has some amazing talent, how come you never shared this guy ?
Not just a brilliant juggler but a fantastic comic !
I'ver never seen Michael Ford, heard about Michael Ford, but he zoomed upwards in my favorite entertainment category.
Used to play at a busker festival, and guys like this were always the most popular. Jokes for 99% of the show, and like two or three impressive tricks.
People like a good laugh
President Regan was a phenomenal president! Wish we had another one like him...
We do now
What a legend. There is a spectrum of goodness that ranges from Michael Davis to Ronald Reagan, and as such the atmosphere in the room feels adjacent to a solar eclipse.
i can imagine eight-year-old michael davis, practicing juggling, learning a few jokes, probably by himself, in his room... thinking... maybe... one day... i can do this for real, and make people laugh. the years go by, and after innumerable hours of practice and developing material and delivery... and he is performing for the President of the United States. how well-deserved. thank you, Mr. Davis. you have truly earned everything you have achieved.
i like it how the Secret Service behind the Regans are trying so hard not to laugh but when Senator Baker throws back the apple they look down ttrying not to show them laughing
Fantastic! You don't see nice, clean humor like that anymore.
Genius!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!!!!!! 👏👏👏👏
Those were the days. Cannot imagine this happening these days. On many different levels.
The high society in USA standing up for Michael.. just one man with some objetcs, intelligence and a warm comedy show... he is UNIQUE, probably the best night oh his life.
This is great to see there humor back then and it still has me in tears 😆
Just wonderful.
Incredible performance
BOY dave this made my day. really great show & i love seeing Ronnie Regan laughing so hard, it did my old heart so good this morning. Thankyou for the great entertainment. Now i must go to work with a smile on my face. Love you MOM
One thing though he would have a tough time doing his act today wearing a mask! Just thought I'd throw that out there today!
Tf is wrong with you lmao
Like performers today wear a mask lmao there up on a stage more that’s 6 feet away from the crowd get real
A really good laugh! It makes my day.
What a priviledge it was to see a Master like this showcase his skill.
I like this slightly extended version... Thanks!!
Classic, talented, real fun!!
You could actually make funny jokes and it's ok... Oh miss the old time
Can't believe I never heard of this guy. Amazing on all counts.
thoroughly entertaining...can't believe i'd never heard of this guy...amazing, and hilarious...
It's amazing even to just watch his hands when he's juggling. The exact same motion on repeat!
If you have a keen eye like mine, you'll notice that he bit into the egg.
+Jonathan Wood I get what you're saying, but, he was supposed to, though, as if it were the apple, but got the wrong one.
It would, appear as though you have, an even kee,ner, eye than this Jonathan, Wood, fellow,
Did anyone with a keen eye notice that Jonathan Wood just trolled y'all...and you fell for it? LOL
I noticed! Give me a cookie!
This comment was supposed to be a sarcasm but people doesn't seem to get it.
this guy killed it! awesome
Outstanding, great stuff.
Reagan and his cabinet were adorable. I miss these times.
THIS is Great!!
God I miss President Reagan !! Great stuff !!
Fantastic act. Best I have ever seen of this type.
Beautiful clean performance and great audience 😊
Love it!
Wow! Michael Davis is the best! A funny funny man and the consummate professional. Comedy juggling does not get better than this!!!
This is delightful. Love seeing the Reagans, with Mrs. Reagan looking quite stunning, Tip O'Neil and Howard Baker. No, I'm not a Republican, however, I remember when politics was a lot more civil and way more inspiring to watch no matter who was in charge.
Wow, whatever became of Michael Davis. He was so good, funny and obviously talented.
