Amazing human robot - Mike Michaels

[@lawrencegenereux8567]

What really impressed me was his ability to stay in perfect synchronization with the prerecorded sound effects.

[@ststst981]

The only other comedian do something similar is Bo Burmham in his I think second standup special. At the time he didn't have a sound team or anything so everything was prerecorded and he practiced for months to ensure his timing was correct

[@Alckemy]

They actually have a guy in the back with a keyboard that triggers the sounds. Most live shows do that^^

[@Longchain69]

Other way round. They take the cue for him.

[@paredesss810]

Because hes a robot

[@chickenpopeye9037]

No he is really a robot you see him take a sip of water at end it's to convince you that it was a act.....in reality it's a bottle of advanced coolant ....nobody drinks water b4 they get off the stage

This magician was a hardcore gamer back in the day. Every piece of his music and sound effects came from a mix of popular games from N64 Era, and mashed together, with Ferris Buellers day off movie, from the same era being the main background. Command and Conquer games and Red Alert being the main sound effects/music mash.

[@beauwalker9820]

Some of the sound effects could of been stock sound effects though. I remember Zelda 64 used stock sounds for the horses and dogs.

Mike Michaels aka robot man.. Creator, builder, performer, Mike Michaels continues his world-wide success and acclaim as he astounds audiences with the world’s only Mechanical Magician. In a performance which combines his robotic movements, state of the art mechanical electronics, and a staggering bombardment of cartoon sound effects, he creates the unusual imagery of a Living Robotic Magician. Mike spent over 5000 hours of research and development to update his original, award-winning act, Mike’s body blows up revealing his moving robotic skeleton, creating the world’s most original display of special effects and magic, live on stage. This specialty act is valued at a quarter of a million dollars.
