Notice how President Reagan, a Republican, was sitting next to Speaker of the House, Tip O'Neal, a Democrat, and his wife. They had staunch differences, but could put them aside and act like humans should. This could never happen today.
During a time when you could have differing opinions and views and still be civil. Currently, I doubt you could get the same "titles" in a room together, for the same reason, without "someone" making a spectacle of themself, in self interest.
@@Plodfrap Yep. Obama changed all that.
@@csrboltfan2643 Obama was handed a mess created by gop, and his attempts to collaborate w gop were refused. Stop turning history into myth.

Wish these days back
The older I get, the more I appreciate entertainers who work clean.
Completely agree
"..if I swallow this ball it will hurt... twice.."
@@Olm9 And?
What a act totally worthy of the standing ovation at the end.😀👍👍
This act is forty years old but I still come back to it occasionally. 👍🏼👍🏼
I remember seeing this as a child. That was a long time ago. I also remember Jesus doing this act until Pontius Pilate got hit by Jesus with a Tomahawk in the nut sack. Yeah, a short career. 😅
Me too, because it is woke/liberal free humor.

But you've proved it's not douche free. @@78tag
@@ayokay123 - show me anything in politics that is "douhce" free. At least there's no PC and the humor is unimpeded.
He's not only a great comedian he's a great juggler too, good old school entertainment.
And a lovely man
This is one of the greatest acts I've ever seen, regardless of genre!
The truly amazing thing about this guy is, this was the 80s so you had Richard Pryor, George carlin Eddie Murphy dice clay. This guy did not swear once were really even tell a joke and you were laughing the whole time. He’s a pure comedic genius.
What's bloody well wrong with fkn swearing? It's everyday language for most people.
@@matzalso not a thing but to be funny without swearing is a whole true art form in itself
very funny!
@@justinwalker4475
@@justinwalker4475 very funny
The 80's were amazing, everything about it as i remember. Although i was young and had alot of growing up to do.. shame that growing up thing
Pure class, style, what comedian wears a tux, is clean, funny, with short 1 liners. The good ol’ days 🤪
AND topical!
He looks clean.. but didn't shower for 2 weeks
He should be very very proud of this performance. It was "Flawless", 110%....
The reaction shots of the Reagan's is not phony. They were from an older generation and appreciated this guy's act.
(I did, too) Michael Davis was a gem.
I think of him as the lying, acting, piece of crap that he was.
Has anyone ever seen DT having a good ole belly laugh?
AND Senator Howard Baker was a very good sport, too!! It is good to see Tip O'Neill and President Reagan sitting together with their wives. Things are so different now.
Good wholesome entertainment!! It reaffirms that we can all get along in this world!! Lay aside our ethnic origins and political differences and act civilized human beings!! Abraham Lincoln in his address just before the Civil War " a house divided against itself cannot stand". We need to get back to the basics of brotherly love and kindness not just in America but all over the globe!!!
‘Razor-sharp bowling ball’ kills me everytime😂
Razor sharp ...lmao
Great entertainment without the "F" bomb or other vulgarities. Great juggling skills.
This guy always reminds me of Victor Borge... they both have amazing talents, but it's their comic timing and delivery that makes them stand out.
Too bad we have so few entertainers like this now.
Yes I often wonder why.
@@fly9wheel - I sure there are lots of reasons but I guaranty you it has a lot to do with the overly influential liberal hive mind in this country today.
@@fly9wheelit's antisemitic to wonder
Michael is the reason i became a juggler. I watched his act in London and as part of it he invited someone from the audience to come up on stage & juggle with him using a sliced load, a chicken & a pound of butter (unwrapped of course).
I loved it so much that i taught myself how to juggle, bought front row seats for a later performance & was lucky to be chosen to come up on stage with him.
I can honestly say that I've performed on stage in the west end with an artiste who has entertained the most powerful man in the world...
With the 'West end girls'?....Robert at 69 in Arizona.
Thanks for daring to be VERY different. You must be mighty impressed by semi-moronic politicians and Presidents on stage reading their cue cards and teleprompters. What a great job they do juggling with the world's problems and our lives. And they have to be jugglers AND ventriloquists' dummies.
Wow , I just discovered this and Its almost a 100% perfect routine. I'm a brit and sometimes American humour doesn't work here ,but this is way up there, Genius
As a fellow Brit, I agree 100%.
I believe his drop was intentional. Makes his perfection afterwards all the more impressive.
I’m a Brit living here in the US… American humor is the worst… However they can’t really understand things like “Only Fools and Horses” or similar.
Politicians these days can fluently juggle 3-4 lies in one sentence, especially around elections.🤫
And they drop the ball on their campaign promises .
🙂
Wow, what a great act. I was laughing and fully entertained the entire time.
Micheal Davis is a very talented man. Comedian, juggler, singer, actor and songwriter
He was on the paul Daniels magic show in the uk
Oh it’s so perfect. Davis really came up with the greatest comedy juggling routine in history. So much of his street routine on show - ‘don’t throw it back whatever you do… it’s my fault - I picked you’. Really the best to ever do it.
I’ve watched this so many times. One of a kind
Making Reagan laugh like that is a deep compliment, given his entertainment background. This guy would've slayed in Vaudeville.
That was E.G. Marshall who introduced Davis. If you were a fan of CBS Radio Mystery Theater you might have recognized his voice.
Thank you for that. I knew the face before the voice but the name escaped me.
I'm usually not into jugglers but this guy was awesome!
I Love the fact the Secret Service directly behind Ronald Reagan is trying not to laugh, and failing.
i doubt thats the secret service. Everyone in that room has been vetted and cleared.
@@jool7793 You don't think anyone ever learned any lesson from what happened to President Lincoln AT THE EXACT SAME THEATER?! (or maybe the two guys behind Reagan just wasn't enjoying the performance as much as everyone else was?)
And we have no sense of humour

When he started juggling the sharp stuff in front of regan the secret service must have been shitting themselves 🤣🤣🤣
I could never be trusted with that I'd say something stupid like "hey Mr president CATCH"
I'm sure they done a thorough background check all the way back to his great, great, great grandfather, but still, they'll have 5 snipers aiming at his head, hands, and the objects
I bet they did too, I was thinking the same thing, not to mention thyey prob did a couple dress rehearsals, and told him not to falter a smidge. @@TripleTreuViet
Good old times when Jugglers made politicians laughing so hard... Today it's quite the opposite.
Hate it when the politicians make my jugglers laugh
Now we are laughing at the politicians lol😂😂😂
Michael Davis was/is a fantastic juggler, and a funny guy. I'm glad that President Reagan and Nancy, as well as Tip O'Neill and his wife were thoroughly entertained!
How have I never heard of this guy. He is brilliant!
He was huge back then
It makes me sad to see Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neill, political opponents, sitting together and obviously enjoying themselves. How far we have fallen.
They were Men. Few and far between today.
WOW. That was a great act. The Audience was had some important folks as well. Did anyone see the MIGHTY TIP O'NEAL. The last real SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE WORTH ANYTHING...
Does anyone know who was next to Reagan’s right??
Most perfect comedy skit I've ever seen.
Michael Davis is brilliant in every way possible.
Senator Baker did his part perfectly.
I wonder how many rehearsals Michael Davis and senator Baker had to go through to make that work.
It was BRILLIANT!
Just amazing. We don't have anybody on the stage like this anymore.
And we don't have anybody like this in the audience anymore either.
It is amazing how easy a pro makes it look, and what a sense of humor.
Wow....I miss those days
What a truly honest comedic performance. Great show!
Yes a different era of comedy. True genius talent
Times and laughter gone by.
15분이라는 시간이 금방 지나갔네요. 몇 번을 다시보며 함께 웃습니다. 고맙습니다.
Davis's absolute confidence before the elite audience of REAGANS and others is awesome. His juggelery & hilarity have brought peels of laughter from all and sundry. 😂😂😂😂
Great performance. Thank you!
wholesome, pure and natural. What happened to the World?
Atheism took over.
He is great and Regan & Nancy loved it.
Brilliant set....just brilliant.
He was on SNL back when it was good, at least 3 times, and each one was pretty awesome.
It's kinda sad that I remember seeing this on broadcast TV... So good.
Not sad 😁
He had me so nervous !
Nothing short of brilliant
Absolutely spectacular!
Ronald Reagan, when character was king, a sense of humor and a way of speaking, sharp wit still unmatched to this day.
Mrs Reagan is so lady-like in her reactions.. 👏👏👏
Yeah, shes got the feminine aura alright. Not many female possesses that. My gf is full of it. Hygiene and feminine aura go hand in hand, which is the two most important qualities u can find in a woman
I was a beginning juggler forty years ago. Still am compared to this guy. Mad skills sir.
Love it love it love it!!! ❤..A favorite !!!
Seen it before. What wonderful entertainment.
What a great show!
Great entertainment! Love it!
Can't believe the secret services would allow anyone with potential weapons to be that close to the president.
Superb. And the secret service must've hada canary when they saw the props ...
Was thinking the same thing. "You're gonna juggle WHAT ???"
@@csrboltfan2643 " It's only within a few feet of the President it's nothing we need to worry about .... "
@@phillipecook3227 Notice that big serious looking guy behind him.
He was fine
That was awesome!
Amazing skill and humor!!
And that's why he was performing for a President. Fantastic act.
Really funny. Good going Michael.
That was what we used to call 'good clean fun'. I know. You never heard of it.
I sat next to him in an airport once in the early 90's. I asked him if he was Michael Davis and he replied.
"No I'm fucking not you moron"
I read in a old READERS DIGESTA of a Juggler who was pulled over by a Cinncinati Police officer and when the officed walked up to his car, he noticed several large Machete knives laying on the back seat,so he asked the Juggler,"Why are those in your car?" The Juggler answered,"I use them in my Act" And the officer said,"Yea right,"let`s see you do it" So the Juggler grabs his knives and stands behind his car and started tossing and catching the knives,and a guy driving by,slows down to watch and says,"Wow,.sure glad I quit drinking,look at the test`s they`re giving now!"
This had me crying!!😂
Very Entertaining
Can you imagine our current President laughing like that? I don't think he would even understand what was going on much less get the humor. And he would probably fall asleep because I am sure this is later than is 7:30 pm bed time. This guy is amazing.
No artifice in Reagan. He was loving it.
Genius can take many forms...
I miss those days of the Reagan years, I remember the day that east and west Germany was back together as a country.
He would so win americas got talent lol genius
Where is he now?
I wish America was still like this
Good clean humor, that is for sure 😅 It reminds me of my Dad. He was older than my Mom by 13 years. He brought so much happy laughter into our family's life! I miss him so much... and everything he had to share with our family and friends. But... that was a different Era. I sure wish we could bring it back... if for anything else... happier times even when the world was fighting wars... people back home did everything they could to fiocus on the positive!
I'm still laughing though I've seen it several times.
What an artist
What a different time to be living.
Great😊
When? Thank you, WBW, for sharing this. Bravo, Michael Davis.
Should of picked a Republican to throw the apple on the stage..LOL!!
Briliant. Man comand the stage. His delivery reminds me of great Victor Borga
Talent!
Nancy laughing! Beautiful!!
REAGAN WE MISS YOU
Very impressive repartee.
Remember those days when nobody had to worry about what children were watching on Television?
You mean when the A team and the Simpsons and cable TV that showed full nudity and constant communist fear mongering all were airing? Nothing has changed. It's just better camera quality and effects
And very nice personality to that
always go for the jugular
Oh how I miss that whole era.
Brilliant.
Great act for a great President!
Level of cool is 10
He brought the house down with egg on his face!
I had forgotten how very beautiful Nancy Reagan was. Probably the most attractive First Lady ever.
How they allowed him to do with swords and ax right in front of Reagan couple is beyond my comprehension.
I wonder how Davis persuaded the security team.
Its reagan not superman chill bruv
Awesome
Can we please get back to these times when everyone c I ikd come together for a good time and leave politics aside?
Wet my pants every time i watch him. Watched one in which he lectured 'seriously' about a corporation and or its director. Extremely subtle humor. I need potty training...
Makes you long for the good Ole days when America was strong and decent folks were in charge
Who knew all we needed to bring democrats and republicans together was just good old fashioned juggling
How far we have fallen.
