Deaf Man's ASL Storytelling, "The Three Caterpillars"

[JakeRyanWhitaker]

this pretty awesome! i love this story, really funny. :) ur really good ASL storyteller!

[ryleeskye]

I love how his shirt changes color slightly with the character

[OliviaDavis16]

As a lot of people leaving comments, I too am an ASL student. But my goal is to become an English teacher in a school that mainstreams a large number of Deaf students. Of course I need several more years of ASL to even be considered adequate. I want to always improve. But I am using this video to expose my grammar class to ASL and show how important body language is, and how expressive the language is. Just wanted to say thanks for helping me expose and teach my class a little something. :)

[FImMbO]

Omg, I can understand this!!! Not everything, of course, I'm only just learning but I'm understanding the main points!! This is so exciting!!!

[LazloSon]

Very good videos, always enjoyable. My favorite being Mountain Dew Man. Your fine as hell to! Damn you good looking. LOL

[BABYGIRL202100]

Wow I like it.

[mamacherylfr]

Love this video.... I am an ASL student too, I am stumped by one sign I keep seeing repeated... palm facing toward you, other hand starts by coming together with the palm of the dominant hand but then flips and hits the dominant palm... help?

[Iniss132]

@mamacherylfr a couple of the times he signed that it looked like "near" or "close." Could be a regional way of signing it

[wolfenprincess1]

@mamacherylfr It might be 'arrive', it'd help alittle if you could give the times he signs it. For example he signs arrive at 2:52 and 2:56 (go a few seconds earlier so you don't miss them). I'm sure it's in other places, but I don't really feel like going through the whole thing.

[sillieejilliee09]

[erinpraying4snow]

I love it! Where are you ??? In bay area?

[trey102]

Really great job man. I watched a few of your videos a while back and decided to watch again recently. You are wonderful at what you do.

[eileentruskowski1]

Amazing storytelling skills.  I am going to assign these for my ASL students... Keep them coming... GREAT job....

[frubafreak17]

haha! That was a cute story! Definitely like the ending too :P

But I also love how you changed the color of your shirt when you changed roles from the bird to the caterpillars. That made it even easier to follow. I did get lost in the middle, but I definitely got the end. Brilliant story. I love your storytelling!

[mmmjr10]

The story seems really intresting but i do not know sign language and would like to follow along with the signs...could you please type the story up and send it to me? thanks

[RandyNewmanFan]

Thumbs up if you wonder why this video has sound at all :)

[lechevaliervert7]

@RandyNewmanFan Because Deaf people don't bother messing around with the sound. They don't care about sound.

[luz3128]

i had no idea of what you were saying but i liked it . especially how you make every thing black and white and your t-shirt stood out. keep it up your doing a good job

[Gahzebo]

I really like the camera shake at 4:53 -ish and how you made everything but your shirt in back & white. Amazing!

[ASL4L1]

Love your creative with CL usage. Do you have your own ASL product for Deaf children? I am currently teaching ASL as primary language to Deaf students. I really enjoyed your ASL work! CHAMP!

[soulscreamer118]

I loved how you changed the tint of your shirt every time you changed roles. I didn't notice right away but when I did I thought it was wonderful. You're absolutely amazing and I hope that one day... I never have to interpret for you because I don't think I could ever match your incredible linguistic abilities.

[MrPopinjay]

I have no idea what you are saying but the way you move is rather beautiful.

[canadiandelegate]

i'm just learning asl now and could only pick out a few signs in the story. but you've inspired me to keep learning! can't wait to be able to understand the whole story!!
