GREAT Ventriloquist, but TOUGH crowd - they NEED to lighten UP.

[@602Sneakerhead]

When I was a kid, Dan did a show at my grade school, he is a very gifted and generous person. When the show was over a few kids walked him back to his car, he made us laugh by throwing his voice from his Orson suitcase. Many years have past but that kindness he showed to us will not be forgotten.

[@hliaam329]

602Sneakerhead aww how sweet from him😊

[@iamniss1155]

His control over the hands is perfect.

[@frederickterrence3076]

a trick : you can watch series at flixzone. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies during the lockdown.

[@idrisdouglas8084]

@Frederick Terrence definitely, I have been using Flixzone} for since november myself :)

[@xgeorgeryanrossx]

not only is he REALLY good with the puppet and talking without moving his mouth, he's also good with the hand controls, moving the moth right, the hands....ugh he's so GOOD!

[@christianrodriguez823]

Dude I'm not into ventriloquism, but this guy is so great I'm really impressed

[@peblezQ]

His ventriloquism is on point! I actually started to believe they were two different people. His mouth never moved even by accident. . 🤗🤗

[@courtneycrabtree5751]

I know right!

[@benny42000]

better then jeff by far.

[@dontworryaboutit5989]

+benny42000 well that is a matter of personal opinion. you can't tell people who they should think is better...

[@bubbiee.]

better

[@MrPavePaws]

Bradley Blackwell Better

[@heysatan8]

The echoing was pretty damn impressive. His mouth didn't move at all.

[@animaniac126]

i love how dan's laughing at his own routine too, His laughter is contagious XD

[@ventriloquistkaterinasopid6939]

He is so lovely, I absolutely adore him

[@grecco_buckliano]

EXPERT volume modulation. No idea how he does it, But he done doed it.

[@larry2966]

I find it amusing that he laughs at everything he does xD

[@CheeseTableMan]

Why isn't the crowd amazed?! This guy is awsome!

[@Bubbliscious13]

I laughed so hard when Orson kept hitting the microphone! I'm adding this to my favorites.

[@drwoo6090]

They are all brilliant. I think it's fantastic that this amazing skill is still being passed down the generations.

[@MrPavePaws]

Mannerisms made the puppet so fcuking realistic it was eerily odd but super enjoyable.

[@Linkubone]

his P's M's etc.. are so perfect!! wow

[@justinedwin7698]

I see who inspired the greats of today. Thank-you for showing a master at work.

[@justinedwin7698]

What's this dude, chopped liver? Maybe, cause that's delicious

[@JediMayuki]

I cannot believe some of the comments below. This guy is a genius. In no time at all he has you believing this character is real, especially with the quickfire repartee between them both. That is so difficult to do and with perfect voice and timing. His use of the rods is nothing short of brilliant. Yeah sure he has to entertain this pathetic audience but they all come along for the ride. Some of the jokes were based on topical stuff of the time so if you weren't around then you wouldn't get it. His skill in ventriloquism is masterfull. No lip movement at all and the throwing of his voice away and back from the mike, especially when the suitcase is closed is amazing. Ray Alan is his only equal I believe.

[@BSCactusJoelSamuelAZ]

No one in Arizona knew Jeff Dunham, but every child in Arizona knew Dan Horn & Orson from the famous children's TV show " Wallace & Ladmo"- Big difference in my humble opinion. Hope You Enjoyed It.

[@anoysilarde878]

Mr. Dan, you are one of the best to me!!

[@sammycopley1]

the guy's laugh made me forget this was ventriloquism

[@sancti78]

the puppet is so genuine. it's so amazing how dan did that. =)

[@BebyRyke]

just awesome😱😭👌👏👏👏👏👏

[@CreteNick]

The far - close to the mic effect is amazing!!

[@christopher-]

That puppet-work is amazing, so much character.

[@ahamefulehenry8455]

I'm most amazed at how much control he has over the volume of each voice at every given time

[@EzraBufford]

I have watched many of them ....this man is the BEST I have ever seen!!!

[@jamespasifull3424]

Then you never saw Ray Alan!

[@laceycarten6061]

That was very funny. the Orson puppet was hilarious. I laughed when Orson burped into the microphone.

[@rozwaznyiromantyczny]

Masterpiece! Everytime I feel really sad and depressed I watch this video. I watched this 100 times or more and it is still extremely funny. Dan Horn is for sure the best ventriloquist ever. Look at His amazing technique!

[@iworshipTreCool12]

his laugh is contagious! its hilarious!

[@MrCaribbean]

wow!...he even did Orson's volume droppin' as he is locked back in the suitcase :-) brilliant

[@philipgardner5171]

I love that a video is 10 years old. It dates back nearly as far as the website itself

[@bRadicalmagic1]

Excellent Dan Horn you could have done anything ! Thanks for being a ventriloquist ! ! !

[@aapjew18]

I've seen Jeff Dunham do most of this stuff too, except the way he moves the arms with those two sticks, that was just amazing.

[@BSCactusJoelSamuelAZ]

This was 1988 Jeff must have copied some of Dan's material- Dan appeared as a regular on the longest running children's tv show in Arizona called "The Wallace & Ladmo Show" and Orson was known by many a Arizona child- This was for a older audience and one another exclusive was for Our generation

[@aapjew18]

BS Cactus Fair enough

[@JoelSamuelProductions]

Dan was a regular on The Longest running children's show Wallace & Ladmo in the 1970's

[@calvinfoo]

Willem Maas this is even better than Jeff Dunham.

[@aapjew18]

Calvin F In many ways, it is.

[@gremlin05]

His pronunciation is amazing. I listened to it without watching the video and the difficult consonants were pronounced correctly, without substitutions.

[@RoyFlush716]

how did it make it sound like his voice was in the suitcase at the end wtf mind blown

[@levitas3720]

WOW!!! This guy is absolute genius in ventriloduism! Indeed a Master of this art!

[@Plaingun3455]

one of the best that i've seen so far, NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS!

[@jamespasifull3424]

I say check out Ray Alan, you'll change your tune!

[@philiptonee6334]

He is brilliant!

[@jamesjacobs2264]

Wow, this is gold talent! I'm seriously stunned at this guys routine :)

[@jamesjacobs2264]

This guys technique with the poll attachments is the best I've ever seen. He managers to use his left hand to also express his own emotions aside from the putter control. Where did he learn to do this? Anyone using a puppet should practice with polls, just look at the advantages if you can pull it off ;)

[@MrBilly1boy]

James Jacobs

[@Cyprian_McBright]

Wow this guy is the best

[@JoelSamuelProductions]

Thanks for your comment

[@ministryundertaker6662]

If you like Dan, also check out David Strassman! HE IS FUNNY AS HECK!!!! :) Especially him and his figure "Chuck Wood" :) David is my personal favorite :3

[@ClintonKelly87]

Chuck: (to Little Ricky) Go to hell, you little bastarrrrdddd. Ted E.: Mustard? Are we having hot dogs?! Chuck: I got your hot dog right here. Ted E.: No thanks, Chuck, that's a cocktail frank. Chuck: ...that hurt. Pretty sure I got that wrong. Typed it from a several year old memory. :P

[@ministryundertaker6662]

I REMEMBER THIS!!!

[@radbot1]

Best I've ever seen!

[@thecrippler555]

One of the best that I've ever seen

[@Gracie_Rayess]

woah, that was awesome. It's cool how he made it look like they were actually fighting

[@mfbemelkemiforbettereducat2113]

wow! he's absolutely amazing

[@multipleverse]

Really fantastic!!! Crowd was dumb not to appreciate such an amazing talent.

[@mk2007al]

I dont know if the audience is aware of the fact they were shown a world class act.........i simply thankyou for uploading. more more more :-))

[@MrMarcodisius]

one word : AWESOME !!!

[@samsnell5741]

[@those1kidds]

dudes amazing. If only there was americas got talent when he was rocking it up. Dude would be huge.

[@JoelSamuelProductions]

We appreciate your comment

[@bobaldred7422]

[@RibbonstheClownVentriloquist]

Out of all the ventriloquist I have studied Dan makes the figure look more alive then the best of them. His reaction to the puppet are so real.

[@Vanedis]

I get it now. He is great because of a maelstrom of several things: 1. He can pull off a believable act with a puppet who has no English -insert foreign country- accent. As I have come to understand, it is hard to recreate a native English speaker without moving the mouth so much. 2. He uses multiple gestures almost simultaneously two represent the body language of two interacting individuals. Notice how he uses the hand that controls the arms and hands of Orson to both precisely dictate a human-like motion in Orson and utilizes the time when his hand is high enough to make gestures that perfectly fit his own character and what he would motion when in debate. 3. There is a feeling of naturalism. Unforced, genuine dialogue between two minds of comparable intellect. Simple point. 4. His timing is spot on, directing our attention to whatever focal point he desires. Capturing our attention and, like a magician, carefully orchestrates his next manoeuvre around the words Orson has to say that might show slight movement around the mouth.

[@blightedangel]

That echoing...WOW this guy is amazing. I love how he makes himself sound so dorky, especially in comparison to the snarky dummy.

[@stromauk6265]

I hate it when people entitle their videos 'The best....etc' But this earns the accolade. Best I've ever seen and genuinely funny. Thanks

[@xxMcCartneyLoverxx]

LOL!! Dont do that again!" lol he does it again that was hilarious!!!

[@RonWylie-gk5lc]

Wow he really is incredibly good, I have never seen anyone as great as Ray Allen but he is really in that league

[@grandsif]

oh my god! i love the laugh of the boy'!!he's soo cute!!!

[@wahanafamily]

No need to argue. Two tumbs up

[@JoelSamuelProductions]

Thanks for sharing and your kind comment.

[@lenyprenger8617]

Very cute...l love the voice!

[@KOTE10001]

this guys has an amazing control of the doll and his the best

[@tramplelouie1255]

He always had my total attention ! He made me laugh harder than any other ventroliquist!🤣

[@DeanTylerK]

I see a lot of comparison with Jeff Dunham the thing I like about this guy is that I found myself really seeing the two different characters on stage. with Orson being closet to the mic, it sounded like he was closer. when he was farther. it sounded like he was farther. when the suitcase shut, it really sounded like he was speaking from in there. this guy's technique is spot on

[@EpicNick24]

+Dean Klebonas Jeff does it when the puppets are in the box and it sounds very distant and enclosed. this dude is good but jeff betttterrrrrrr

[@lindahammie3674]

+EpicNick24 Yes, agree, Jeff is better.

[@ansiaaa]

+Dean Klebonas this guy is a great ventriloquist, but his strong point, what sets him apart, is how he makes the puppet move. that really gives life to the puppet

[@UknownWorlds]

I love this guy.

[@MusicalJeanAz]

Saw Dan Horn on a cruise last year. He was very entertaining and we laughed so hard through the whole show. What a talent he has!

[@fzllhuq]

Dan Horn is great and very funny. He enjoys his own show.brilliant

[@AnimeLuver2597]

that was amazing. i would watch this guy all day :)

[@shirleypena4133]

One of THE BEST ventriloquists in the history of the craft!

[@BajkonurBobby]

That was amazing! Best one I've ever seen. The dynamic sounds, the coordination, body language. Very impressive!

[@silverorangetears]

he has the cutest laugh ever ^.^

[@spinningcarrot]

dan horn is just .... no word to describe him... he doesn't seem to need air at all... i kept worrying about him getting suffocated during the whole gig!

[@BSCactusJoelSamuelAZ]

This was produced in the early days of video 1980's most people now living in the world were not even born yet- I am happy to have preserved these variety entertainment videos for future generations to always enjoy- welcome to my show.

[@zapikachu]

He's amazing.

[@myusernameisreallyfuckingl9293]

Wow, he was really good! I've gotta say i've never seen a ventriloquist make their puppet look so alive, the way he used those sticks to move the puppet around was amazing.
