Martin and Lewis - The 4 Stepp Brothers 3rd time on M&L

- From Febuary 13th, 1955 - The third appearance of the Four Stepp Brothers finds them dancing with Dean and Jerry yet again. I like this one the best, especially since I can't stop wondering whether or not Dean's fall at the end was a joke or for real. A pratfall I would've expected from Jerry, but somehow this unexpected one was hilarious!
And that ladies and gentlemen is what talent looked like back in the day. RIP all six.
It’s timeless. Nobody will ever ever be what they were.
STARS AND LEGENDS
People had real talent back then. Its drastically lacking today.
Excellent !in 2023!!
Buenisimo, bravo!!!.
If you read Mr. Lewis' book, "Dean & Me" - he explains that both him and Mr. Martin both learned the art of the pratfall and that in order to "sell it" it had to look like a genuine fall - and that as a result Dean ended up with a type of hernia, and Jerry (after their breakup) chipped his spine. He did say to my dad (he lived next to the Lewis' when they still lived in the Louis B Mayer house in BH) that his partner was the better "pratfaller", but he didn't do it as often because of his greater size and weight than that of Jerry....fun facts to know and tell.
Frank Pelli Plus of course Dean was ten years older than Jerry - here in 1955 he would have been just two years short of turning 40.
Jerry was a little bit taller than Dean..
@@daniellebourgade8701yes he was but a whole lot smaller than Dean
Don't worry about Dean's and Jerry's pratfalls during this sequence. Both were masters of the pratfall when they were this young, almost in the tradition of Buster Keaton. Dean was so good at it, that when he did his "drunk" persona when he was a member of the Rat Pack, he regularly included a pratfall during their Vegas act, doing them night after night. And he never ceased to get laughs the way he did it. Of course, he got right up (or was helped up) and was always as "good as new," which is why it was so funny--even today if you enjoy physical comedy as I do. Jerry was seriously injured during one fall, much later in life, but that wasn't from a pratfall, but a genuine slip.
Astonishing talent.
Und dieses temperament❤❤❤
Funny how Jerry can always get a laugh without even speaking.
espectacular
Now that is Entertainment!
Wow 😂😂😂😂😂
Ehrlich zugegeben, ich steh voll auf Stepp, ich habe es mal selber versucht, das war nicht grad eine Glanzleistung🙈 mir fehlte echt ein Tanzlehrer
Billy Dainty would have fitted in like a glove in this routine.
Genial
In che anno siamo?
Gabi fofo, miliki, y fofito,
Más de lo mismo
Man, this is INCREDIBLE! Dean and Jerry can hoof it with the very best of them, and still pull out some original moves! With Jerry adding the gag factor into it as well. Absolutely STUNNING!
Well said! Jerry Lewis was a fantastic dancer and was able to add that physical stroke of genius to it. Not even Chaplin had that to that degree. Stan Laurel had a bit of that too, but far from Jerry Lewis almost unlimited comic imagination and control of his body in motion. But not all people get it. Some just sees it as Lewis goofing around.
I don’t know about the very best of them I think they’d look pretty mediocre next to like bill Robinson, the Nicholas brothers, Gregory Hines people of that caliber
You're too easily impressed -- Dean and Jerry are nothings in terms of good tap or other dances. As mentioned below, check out Bill Robinson, the Nicholas Brothers and Gregory Hines, then you'll see the real thing taken to its absolute unsurpassed height.
@@gerthenriksen8818 exactly!! Well said
@@vancouverterry9142. Dean and Jerry weren't trying to be the greatest dancers, they were much more than that. I greatly respect all the great dancers,btw, nobody will ever surpass Fred Astaire. But Jerry? He could really cut a rug!
What an amazing display of both talent and athleticism. Thank-you for posting!
This is essentially American folk dancing. This is the culture we created and is purely ours. Along with Jazz,the Blues,Rock n Roll,and Hip Hop. We should be celebrating moments like these in our divided times. This is just a small example of us at our best. God bless America and these men.
All based on black culture. Interesting.
Actually that's not true we borrowed this culture from the European Jews and Irish we just improved upon it because without the influence of the Jewish communities in the Irish communities we wouldn't have blues tab r&b and so much other black culture not to say that we didn't do a good job of making it our own it's just that it's not original to us
Amerikaana folk music show iiiiaaaa volk…?humor negro?
Nobody can do this today?
It's a miracle the Step Brothers never hurt themselves while on live t.v.!! They were great!! That 'fall' Dean Martin took was part of the show. You could tell just from the way he 'slid' into it.
Fantastic routine!! Loved it so much!! Didn’t know Dean and Jerry could even come close to keeping up with those superstar dancers!!
Actually Maceo trained a few more dancers after the Little Steps. Before he died, he worked with his daughter Cindy in Las Vegas with a group she formed that didn't last. I know, because I was in that group. It was a thrill to learn from Maceo. He never used counts, but skatted the rhythm.
I Danced with Maceo in the late 70's and Prince Spencer, it was such an honor!!!!!
You are so fortunate to experience that!
MICHAEL.....I was dance director for Maceos 4 bros school of dance late 60's early 70's. Nice to meet you digitally...I hold incredible ❤ for the man...Las Vegas
@@donnasloane9031 Me too. I learned so much from him and glad that I got to know him for the brief time that I did.
I visited Maceos grave site many years ago...His grave stone says.....WATCH YOUR STEP
What a couple of entertainers! Love them so much! Great to be able to see them on You Tube!
Some forms of art just take on a life of their own I think, this whole bunch are immortals as this lives on beyond their dances on earth, RIP to all of 'em, and thank you.
Wow, I have never seen the 4 Step brothers perform before. What talent! And Dean and Jerry are hilarious. Will treasure this video!
That was so fun to watch! what amazing talent these men have !
The natural athleticism of each of these dancers is purely breath-taking. They made it look so easy. Thanks for sharing!
This was tremendous! Everyone enjoyed themselves and the added humor and energy of Dean and Jerry was a special touch to the athletic and talented foursome!!!! Just love the clapping and stomping instead of instruments. Cool in every way.....Wish people today would perform like this!!!!!!!!!!!
Me too Brenda
there is no one on the box over the last sixty years as good as these
This is so damn cool! R.I.P. Dean Martin!
People make fun of me that I watch tap dancing videos on RUclips but when they see it this is there faces 😮😧
Glad to have found this post,such talent these guys had,
whoever appeared with them allowed dean & jerry to strut
their stuff,amazing,thanks
These guys have springs in their legs!!
The fall was made by Jerry Lewis not Dean Martin.
Err they both did falls..last one was Dino..check it out!
The best there ever was!!!!!!!
Dino could dance ❤️
Hello There He really could - @4.05 you can see him channeling his Uncle Leonard Barr, a well-known ‘eccentric dancer’ of the time. He often featured on Deans shows over the years, both with Jerry and later on his Variety Show in the sixties. I imagine that Leonard probably taught Dean some of his moves when he was growing up in Steubenville as a boy because he often mimicked him on spots like this.
Pure talent jerry
1950's talent!
Formidables step. Brothers mais Dean est bien aussi et Jerry des acrobates com ils étaient jeunes rip all of you
It was a joke; Jerry did his trademark lay-out fall (which caused him no end of health issues later), and Dean did his slip-and-slide in 'response'. Dean does look a little tuckered out; putting on an hour live show is exhausting!
I love it!!
coolest thing i've come across in a long while!
Dean could do it all. His days with Lewis were nothing like the laid-back boozy persona he adopted after Jerry. Dean was hugely successful after the split, but he never worked that hard again.
They were great. I remember when Dean came on the Telethon and shortly after that he was gone.
Dean and Jerry were a class act. Hollywood needs to take a long look in the mirror.
Talento puro.!
Gracias por subirlo y compartir.
Lot of talent right there!
Once upon a time there were entertainers.
Oh, how I miss this type of entertainment!
muito lindo isso que era humor hoje em dia so fazem lixo na tv
Just great..ah yes.good OLD TV..fun for sure.
Fabulous entertainment
I LOVE IT ALL
I've never seen these Four Brothers, they are great. But I also want to honor the orchestra, masters of their own.
That orchestra! Dean and Jerry have said many times, they couldn't do anything without them. They were marvelous!
EAT your heart out MICHAEL JACKSON very gifted men like you Michael
5:35 - Jerry landing on his hip like that. He'll pay the price tomorrow.
He was very ill later in life from one of his pratfalls
Che meraviglia vederli altro genere a confronto di oggi strabilianti bravissimi
Pra fazer essas artes tinha que ter um bom preparo físico! Maravilha
1 guy straight went in on tap is amazing
If you are wondering what happened to tsp dancing it was that no one knew how hard it was.
Hey Jerry Lewis knows Shim Sham
Dean is hysterical in here as well
Inacreditável 🍇🍇🍇🍇🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🙏
Can you call this dancing a cappella?
RUclips's AI brought me here, good God it knows me like a son...
So funny
oh my God, Jerry is an absolute nut....hahahahahahahaha freakin hilarious
He really is !!!
Espetacular! 😅😅😅👍👍👍
Genius as always
MANAUS CITY,,AMAZONAS ,,BRASIL
So schön ❤ich würde gerne in dieser Zeit leben ❤
"The Four Step Brothers" is the correct name. "4" is okay, but how have you gone 12 years with "Stepp" in your titles?
Moonwalking
Best ever of anyone anywhere!
Increíble, majestuoso, talento magistral
Excelentes artistas 👍👍
Unbelievable talent.. and I'm really surprised that Dean was able to dance like that too
Dean could hoof it up too! They were just stunning!
Formidable ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such great days.Every one in this did great.
I was thinking the same thing!! I was a little surprised Dean had so much trouble with it.
These men is Incredible !!❤
Tremenda calidad de artistas.
This is AMAZING ! What a performance ！Martin & Lewis are gold. Love the video.
A lot of fun.

Jesus Jesus Love this ..White Black mens dancing united like that....7/25/2019...😞😢
Yet they still considered and called them boy's.
Too much talent. Low fives
When talent was REAL!
Jerry is a fool😂😂😂
At one point I thought the guy’s on the far right hips was going to dislocate. (Should that be the guy on the right’s ?
Hermoso espectáculo.
Rapaz! E eu jurava que muitos desses passes foram criados na década de 2000...e não...eles são mais velhos do que meu avô..esses dançarinos atuais copiaram tudo...tudo...quem se salva? FROM BRAZIL🤔
Wow! Absolutely wow!
I'll bet Dean didn't think it was funny!
GREAT
Sem palavras. Muito show!!!
Não canso de ver esse vídeo. Sensacional
The old stars could sing, dance and act.
What's the best dance that I've seen in 20 years.. and I'm shocked that Dean Martin could do that. I thought it was just a great singer.. I watch this video about 10:20 times already
Brings Back memerys

ВЫСШИЙ ПИЛОТАЖ !!!!
БРАВО 😅
