Ventriloquist - Nina Conti

Probably one of the best ventriloquist performances ever. Nina Conti is an English actress, comedian and ventriloquist. The face mask, rather than an actual puppet with a personality, is a mask that covers the lower half of an audience participants face and can be manipulated by a hand-piece held by Nina to make it look like the participant is talking. Nina often uses this to put the participant in awkward and funny situations, such as making them say that they want nothing more to do than dance in front of the audience, while their body language suggests the opposite. www.ninaconti.c...

the icing on the cake is her ability to laugh at her own jokes, it looks so natural, she almost look surprised at her own answers. it really sells the ventriloquist bit and makes the jokes even funnier!

[@TheOneSoulMate_]

I was thinking the same thing. It helps sell the idea that it’s not her and she is just part of the audience. Extremely funny.

[@bensweet9685]

I feel her laughter is real, she having just as much fun as the audience.

[@jatticusfinch9015]

I watch her assuming her id is the puppet and she really is surprised because whatever voice comes to the surface is usually subcon. I know it’s a finely crafted skill, and therefore super conscious, if maybe a little automatic, but wow. The illusion is stunning.

[@chr15s.91]

Because while she may have prepared a bit, she still has freestyle alot of the dialogue based on the persons mannerisms to fit in, so its new material to her aswell, plus their reactions are priceless.

[@CaptainScarlet67]

It's almost like there're 2 people inside her, and one really has no idea what other is about to say, brilliant. She should be on main stream tv far more often.

[@aakar1s]

We need more of this, harmless humour that gets everyone on high spirits.

[@brucejane7395]

The ventriloquism is brilliant, but her ability to turn an introvert into an extrovert is incredible.

[@edwardnavedo9682]

As an introvert, this is probably the most intense thing that's ever happened to him. He probably experienced a high that no drug could ever bring. Well done, Nina.

[@kennethdemarest2878]

She's fantastic, no doubt. But I do think that the "dummy" was a plant. His eyes and body movement were just too perfect for the dialogue. I think most people would be too horrified up there to look right, even with the mouth moving. But that doesn't take anything away from her act. She is brilliant.

[@chrisholloway1352]

Yesss! I was just gonna put a similar comment she's amazing

[@CutieRingoJoy]

About to say that too, could tell he is an introvert like me

[@jogabonito8989]

@@kennethdemarest2878 i'm an introvert and have to agree with others here that i'd have reacted exactly the same way. i don't think he's a plant. i also don't think he became an "extrovert" at the end. she eased him into it by asking him to wave one hand, then two and by then he felt comfortable enough, after all that encouragement. you can tell she had practiced this with other introverts and worked out that this is a good way to get them moving. after he stopped dancing though, you see him instantly became uncomfortable again

[@baalsaak]

This woman laughing at her own jokes... She's the sweetest thing...

[@GTXDash]

"Don't be sorry, I'm loving it." XD

[@modusop8]

[@chimchimcharoo56]

nina reeeeeeeeeally should have bought a longer cord, good lord! so awkward to be holding it like inches from his face.

[@sifufusco9152]

Hilariously brilliant comedy.

[@trueaussie9230]

I'm not a great fan of ventriloquism, but I'll happily watch Nina anytime. Although I'm not fond of the 'masks' routine. It was 'interesting' when new, but I'm over it.

[@patrickturner2417]

Who was the first to do the mask schtick? I've seen 4 or 5 people doing it nowadays......

[@bekeeper1]

She has to do the USdebated

[@JillpapI]

It almost feels staged at first (the microphone already in the guy's hand) but in all fairness even if it was the rest of the act made me stop caring about such nitty gritty.

[@SoCalDad91932]

She exchanged numbers with him and later thanked him in his hotel room... All night long

[@scotty2036]

Copied off someone else try using your own material.

[@Liofa73]

You seem like a nice person...
