Nathan's TED x Talk about why he made his first dance video for YELLE.

[@paragonjones13]

It's kind of nice to see Nathan be somewhat serious. It's refreshing after all the - albeit fantastic - lunacy that he gives off on a regular basis.

[@skinnybub5237]

This guy has more creativity, talent, originality and heart than 99% the entertainment industry today!!! All his dreams deserve to come true!!!😀👍🏻👍🏻

[@chadwildclay]

I thought for sure this was going to be a TED parody. That is fricken awesome you actually gave a TED talk Nathan! I love all your vids. You inspired my next video I'm currently working on.

[@Casteray]

Ight, "inspired" now's a kid's channel.

[@Mar1aHass4n]

Rip

[@stevenpina1983]

@@Casteray hahaha. I know right. I remember watching some of their parodies years ago, then about 5 years ago, my kid was starting to watch YT for the first time and she was watching one of their newer spy ninja series. I was like wtf happened to this channel?

[@chaiir22]

You are now a kids channel lmao

[@thexbigxgreen]

Oh hey, you make those awful videos for children. Good stuff.

[@chanakpugkaing]

Nathan - dude. You are my band yell. I discovered your work just a week ago and I watched hours of your videos. You are so talented and ridiculously creative. Thank you so much!

[@BaldingClamydia]

I'm going on that same journey the past week or two!!

[@ConnectTheDotsProper]

Exactly how I feel when I hear Dad say, "IT'S TIME FOR DAD TO BRING THE LIGHTNING"

[@WatchDoggyDog]

Gotta love how open, funny, nerdy, and most of all how genuine Nathan is! He really is an inspiration for others and he deserved his spot there as much as anyone.

[@HealthHorror]

The Yelle video for Ici & Maintenant you are in was actually a game-changer for me when I first saw/heard it. I discovered Yelle in the mid-2000s but went into the military and lost touch with media. Then years after the military I saw the video you are in and it mesmerized me. It's so simple but so very effective at the same time. The movement changes coinciding with the tone change in the song is pure magic. It's like experiencing changing emotions and just riding the wave with it, like being in the rhythm and just flowing. And you are right, there's something about Yelle. There's something captivating about their music.

[@eddiespagetti8395]

This is so amazing. Producer and his movies shorts he made won many awards. He is an amazing guy. Dancer and stunt man and so many talents. Nathan is due for big time. I hope he gets super rich and he deserves wealth and fortune he really.does. No one is as good as this guy in Hollywood right now he is in a league of his own. The real deal.

[@tadpole1313]

It takes alot of balls to get in front of a crowd like this and talk on a large scale. I am sure he has overcome his fear of doing stupid stuff for shots but to be invited to something like this and talk in front of a crowd on a personally level can be really nerve racking.

[@psychedelicfeline6164]

Wonderful! One thing I love about Nathan is his energy is so contagious. I leave his videos with a smile. Thank you for being you!

[@BrandOffMusic2]

It’s insane that Nathan got to collab with YELLE

[@spencergaron4146]

I am 125% sure you don't remember me but we met briefly at SGC 1 and I was a fan of you then, then years later I got to play on your NeoGeo cab at Game Underground in Framingham and I have been a fan of you, Dad, your dance videos, and now your music for so long. You're amazing, keep it up!!!!

[@JohanErikssonSWE]

What an amazing personality you have brother, its contagious as is your dancing. You are such an inspiration, my hat is off to you Sir.❤

[@PhilieBlunt666]

And the wiggly guy from KZbin. My favorite Nathan quote ever

[@haltry]

Nathan, i just have to thank you for doing something on TED. Thanks to you, you have help spread your ideas and connected many others with other amazing ideas. You have helped humanity grow.

[@noone-lj9ut]

WOW... seeing this for the first time.... You looks exactly like you do now. You are so much more comfortable on camera now.

[@mrshannonite4016]

I would love to see you do a TED Talk now. Your journey and experiences have been quite a ride, I'm proud to be your subscriber.

[@constant938]

Crazy he got to actually make a song with Yelle on his dad channel, Diane would be proud.

[@voLumez]

dude! you were on tedtalks?! very nice!!

[@WorldsWorstBoy]

voLumez Well Tedx lol. Anyone can do Tedx. But it is pretty cool seeing him talk publicly.

[@cwatson42785]

RunFox Can you link me to your Tedtalks?

[@WorldsWorstBoy]

Chris Watson I can link you to a bunch of people who literally got on a tedx stage and made a mockery of it lol. They shit on it the entire time. So anyone can get on tedx. Nathan is just fine but I can probably get booked on it. If I make up a bullshit enough idea I almost definitely could get on lol. I live like 2 hours away from where they film a lot of it maybe I will.

[@WorldsWorstBoy]

Chris Watson Then I'll link ya.

[@zachhebel1627]

honestly, this is top-tier ted talk, next to nardwuar. if you see this, Nathan, you deserve every bit of success you are receiving and will recieve, and everything you are creating right now is making serious waves in the miiinds of many, many people. thank you for being awesome and completely inspiring. beck rules

[@nko138]

Nathan man, no matter how good or bad my day has been you always cheer me up when I watch your stuff. Thanks buddy.

[@jamescanjuggle]

I always was afraid of dancing or singing. Felt vulnerable, im scared to open up. Just discovered your the cop from the sugar music video and its all making sense now, its like you've been sitting on a chair at the side of my life just waiting for me to start dancing. I love that song.

[@GoldenfoxxPrime]

Hmmm...footage from years before he was hijacked by an alien entity from Kelpar 22B?

[@AvanToor]

I guess the signature Dad move came from this entity.

[@lilbohbeat5785]

You guys need to check out his (Nathan Barnett) channel, he managed to post a video before he had to disappear; he starts off explaining some frustrations with the server itself... meanwhile, we spot his patriarchal doppelgänger poking around through the window behind him. Nathan had to hide. Dad might be dangerous.

[@AvanToor]

@@lilbohbeat5785 Yeah I saw it. His silver play button drops as soon as Dad looks straight at us.

[@111HONESTY]

I think it's Keplar isn't it? Haha🙏💜💙💚🧡💛🙏 Kelpar is the neighbor planet with all the kelp

[@GoldenfoxxPrime]

@@111HONESTY DANG. I go out of my way to double-check myself so that I don't make spelling errors and then I go and do THAT. 😂

Sorry I’m 8 years late to the comments party. But finally! I know someone who talks as fast as I do!!! I thought I was the only one. :)

[@emanmodnar2]

This was a random treasure of a find, delightful to see Nathan's excitement in everything.

[@ianckoerner]

His short film Neutral is incredible

[@SoldatCrinale]

His dance videos are awesome but I want more keith apicary. I miss sega's greatest fanboy

ive been listening to Yelle on my way to school now, and i see why he loves it so much now!

[@J2digital]

Also the music video was sick and blew my mind when you made it!

[@samsufy8945]

I already loved you, and now i discover you like Yelle, how can i love you more ?

[@freshrot420]

I thought this was gonna be another bit, but daymn, you're a legend! :')

[@bagheadinc]

Time to go watch all of his dance videos...again. :)

[@potatosordfighter666]

People don't pay attention to your true dedication. They see you as a silly guy. But you take your silliness quite seriously, and that's why people underestimate you. You put in blood, sweat, tears, bruises, and much more. After your appearance in creator clash you really should be blowing up, like you blew up Matt.

[@hopeywankanobigreyjediextr2401]

Nathan... How have I never known your genius before my recent stumble upon Dad stealing your lovely face?!

[@crystalthieves]

I like how he just casually refers to Madeon as some 16 year old kid in France... lol

TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS COMBINED

[@DrPerki]

You're so incredibly likable, Nathan. I really like that they used music from Rome on the intro and end of this video.

[@QuarterMasterGaming]

Congratulations on all your success Nathan. For real.

[@IGazeYouInTheHaze]

I love this man .

[@callawayHXtour]

NATHAN!! Do commentaries on your videos, like this. It was sooo fascinating to here the story behind why you filmed it and what happened!

[@3dscott]

Epic! Love you Nathan!

[@lukeriely4468]

Enjoyable watch. Thanks 👍

[@JamesCello]

Nathan, you and Dad are legends. You’re an awesome dude, and Dad is a great bot

[@fanfaretloudest]

If I ever owned a store and saw you dancing in it. You'd be dancing a long time! And I might dance along side you if it was a slow day, lol.

also, was wondering if maybe you could post a playlist of yours, since you always have awesome music :)
