Johann ~ Comedy Central commercial

[OzzyRussellJackieLuv]

Why has he got 2 names?

[RokiaNY]

I think the men out there should take a lesson from David Armand. At first glance, he's not knock-them-dead attractive. But throw in humor and talent, and suddenly he's pretty sexy. ;-)

[piaaguilos]

@RokiaNY

Glad I'm not alone. LOL. 

[SatansPet1]

I think he performed his mime to this song better at the Secret Policemen Ball. But its still pretty awesome! :)

[Kiernik]

vbuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaaaahahaha­hhahha fucking luaght my ass of !!!!!

[NPC919]

I like comedy that doesn't pussy foot around things. I lol'd at the sign. I'm not evil or anything, but it's making a joke here.

This guy's awesome too, didn't know he was deaf... Really epic sense of humour xD

[Johannfan2]

@NPC919 "Johann" isn't deaf =)

[dragonfire981]

@Johannfan2 Johann is however DAVID isn't

[enuvain]

@goodtube77 I said that im partially deaf, that means that one of my ears im completly deaf and the other is fine, so that would in effect allow me to hear. Dont judge what someone can or cant do simply based on your assumptions pls.

[Rhosnesni]

I do kinda agree that the "Soon to be dead Childrens ward" was a bit risky and bold. But there's no laws in comedy, it's just a bit of fun.

[xpandabearx1]

I luv Johann hes so funny (:

Luv the video can't stop watching it

lool (:

[DefaultErrorX]

@xpandabearx1 are you still watching;)

[pyromaster1001]

that one kids face was so sad i all most cried

[enuvain]

First off all more then half of the comments on this page can't be read. Why? Because there is zero sentence structure. Secondly, The guy doing this "INTERPRETIVE DANCE" is not singling out the deaf community. He's just dancing and coming up with his own personnel ideas. And lastly, I like this and so does my sis. Guess what, we are both deaf, she is completly deaf and I am partially deaf. (left ear is dead) so I know plenty about the hearing impaired community. Just grow up and get over it.

[pepsico8]

Être bientôt children' mort ; salle de s - c'est fichu non drôle

[Johannfan2]

@enuvain Thank you so much for your input!

[SatansPet1]

@Johannfan2 Imput*

[domatone]

@Johannfan2 he is not deaf ......

[genecorrado]

@enuvain  hysterical.

[Christina314]

@enuvain It's pretty sad that people are so retarded that you have to explain the joke to them.

[teemofie]

@enuvain Who told you the lyrics?

[Johannfan2]

If it has to be explained to you, then u just don't get it...thats the point ~ and not just a kid's hospital, but the SOON TO BE DEAD CHILDREN'S WARD!!! If u'd pay attention, the nurse states there's good news & bad...the bad news is that Mr. Pickles, the magic clown "can't be with us this afternoon"...so they found a replacement. It is SUPPOSE to be stupid!

[hairylegs22]

Sorry - meant to write 'pretty sure people areN'T interested in reading negative commentary especially if they are aimed at insulting.'

[hairylegs22]

Hi - isn't this meant to be reasonably harmless? It is no worse than a lot of other comedies sketches I have seen - no need to make it a big issue - if you don't like it, then don't watch it....pretty sure if people are interested in reading negative commentary especially if they are aimed at insulting...thus endeth the sermon :-)

[paparhea]

Get well soon pufixas....

[pufixas]

I really love the johann (like frined) the is soo funny :) I'm in the hospital now cuz i broken my arm :( but i watching youtube from my mobile phone :) so HAVE A NICE DAY ALL OF YOU! :)

[GiRlover89]

whoa! behind the back takes skill!! lol

[thegapshow]

Cuckoo

[thegapshow]

Arsehole

[joejonasluva96]

I'm 50% deaf in both ears, and I have people taking the mick out of me at school.. But I just walk it off. I think Johann is very funny, since I saw this me and my friend have been trying to learn it for the past week. If your going to let something like this upset you, then you might not have a fun life, just try to walk it off or ignore it. Don't say nasty things about someone you don't know. Thats all i'm saying :)

[BorgAngel]

U got my respect mate :) It's not easy being diffirent. I know how u feel.

[joejonasluva96]

Thank you :) I respect that

[thegapshow]

Your comment bullshit I am not hate David Armand, it just because of his acting making stupid miming and some sign language it make people think that deaf people do like him which is NOT, That how deaf people complaining that all OK

[Rhosnesni]

do you know what? I'm not gonna try and change your mind anymore, I'd be wasting my time...

[onyxviz]

so everyone's upset about armand offending the deaf community...i'm not sure why. he doesn't call what he's doin sign language. it's mime/interpretive dance. there should be no issue. it is still hilarious. knowing sign doesn't rly help when watching this, except that you are used to visual language and you might get more of what he's "interpreting." i'd like to see more than the four songs he currently has :)

[Rhosnesni]

I still can't understand why deaf people cry over this stuff, and don't bother burning me, I'm deaf too. Don't let your disability stop you from enjoying yourself that's what I say...

[thegapshow]

You're an arsehole I am fucking deaf I don't like his acting cos this is fucking racists I can't understand what you say it, ''WEIRDO''

[Rhosnesni]

I'm deaf too, but I'm still a little bit open to all sorts of comedy... Anyway he is not taking the mick out of deaf people, he is just miming, people on youtube dubbed it as the "Deaf Karaoke", anyway if you let every bit of discrimination against deaf people upset you, then you're not gonna have a good life. Just take it on the chin and shrug it off because it's gonna happen till the day you die. Just try and be a bit open, that's all I'm saying, don't let it stop you enjoying your life...

[thegapshow]

Rhosnesni - You are not deaf you're a bummer I am happy social life I love fun jokes etc but this one very different, If you are really deaf you should be understand why, But can't you see there so many deaf people complaining over this why not you???????????????? I think you are weirdo

[stuffandstuff789]

I love this guy - his mimes are fun to watch.

[chocolatechocochoco]

I really don't get this video..

what did they want to show?

kids no reaction?

[simon4063]

Yea I didn't see the funny side of it at all

[NadiaTatyana]

The soon to be dead kids ward.... do you think ANYTHING is funny to them? Do you sit around trying to find deep truths in Monty Python, too?? It's black humor. That's usually offensive to the humorless.

[eidius1989]

ok what the fuck is wrong with u people just watch and shut up and laugh or just leave

[podum77]

WTF with you that very offensive & discrimination too

[MarkD87dk]

Being def and watching this with the lyrics in mind (after you've read them ofcause), might not give the same as for the people who can hear.

Being one of the hearing-people, I think he is hillarious, but when you know how to do sign-language, it might get lost in translation really..

[akabill909]

I absolutely agree. I am a hearing person, but I know sign language, so even though most of the "signs" are incorrect, I can interpret the meaning as I watch (i don't have to go back and read the lyrics). I can only imagine what it would be like if you were relying solely on the "signs." I watched it with the sound off and honestly if I had not seen the video before, I would be completely lost

[thegapshow]

you made me laugh with cry, you are a bummer

[thegapshow]

only mentally people watching this mind you I'm not discrimination okay

[Johannfan2]

i agree, that was a rude remark from me, so i deleted it. i am sorry that this is confusing for you. i hope you understand that we are not making fun of deaf people. Best of luck to you!

[Johannfan2]

GOODTUBE77 -- I am glad that you got your apology from David. I am not deaf, therefore cannot understand how this could offend a deaf person. He was in no way trying to offend you or anyone else (I don't believe). It was a commercial, viewed by thousands of people. If it were so offensive, I'm sure it would have been taken off the air. It wasn't. You can't please everyone...tho I am empathetic to handicap people, I don't see the big deal in this. And I will not remove it.

[Johannfan2]

LMFAO!!! no, it wouldn't be as easy to get the joke HAHA!!

[Johannfan2]

That is the freakin irony of it...are you deaf and maybe didn't hear that a clown or something was suppose to show up but had to cancel - this was the only guy they could get for the show?? Notice how the kids are not enjoying the show?? And how David can't understand why not?? Look past the webs in your closet and quit being a dumbass.

[darktallic]

no wonder that goodtube guy is angry(sarcastic by the way)... beeing def and all it`s not easy to get the joke when you never heard the song:)

[StrawbsShadow]

I wasn't insulting deaf people! I was insulting you! You attack goths, my age, and an artist.. Seriously, you just seem like a sad, lonely imbecile. Im done with this conv, Later

[StrawbsShadow]

You can read..

[StrawbsShadow]

Cmon! You're 31 and from UK.. You of all people should be able to speak english well, yet that made no sense! Im mentally 16 yrs old? No. I AM 16 YRS OLD! Anyway, no point bringing ageism into it

[StrawbsShadow]

I dont see the problem with this! Or goths.. Hmm maybe you should be called GODtube77. ^^

[kingcroak]

glad we understand eachother.

[kingcroak]

It's called interpretive dance, it's been around for ages. It's essentially miming the words to a song, i don't personally enjoy it but it's not an attack on sign language or deaf people, look it up if you don't belive me.

[kingcroak]

How? Specifically the scetch is about a replacement entertainer for children in a hospital, who happens to be very bad and in effect, comical, at his job. The only way it could be disgusting is if he openly expressed extream dislike for the children, which he doesn't.

either that or you just find him funny looking, which is rather unfair.

[kingcroak]

Dude, it's just comedy.

While your at it, why don't we try to ban all media which has controversy. All that would be left is the few childrens shows that don't contain stereotypes and Nature programs without the violence, sex or Bill Oddie.

[53217]

soon to be dead ward i love it hahaha!

[RyanMan117]

Johann could have been better, he didn't have the brightness in him, like his other acts

[6142king]

what the hell is this shit

[Johannfan2]

its called comedy - some people get it, others dont

[6142king]

its not funny and its gay

[artjomlogic3]

so are you
