I watched this on tape-Betamax-before heading to high school for the day. I was stifling laughs all day; I swear everyone thought I smoked out before breakfast (and I was a boring-ass, straight-arrow kid).
That fan gag is actually very safe. He just need to make sure his tongue is never past the blades. All he is doing is smashing his tongue into the ramp of the blade. There is no way for his tongue to get cut like that. Now, if the fan was spinning the other direction,... he would definitely have some problems.
The Aussie band Paul Shaffer mentioned, "The Easybeats", were definitely not "one hit wonders"... During their six-year run, they scored 15 top 40 hits in Australia.
@@darkparker7500 No no no it's a British common wealth not a real country. Nothing about it being a continent. Australia was ''granted'' it's so called independence by the British government with several heavy duty conditions. England says jump they say how high? Just like Canada and New Zealand. Not real country's
The easy beats weren't exactly one hit wonders but I guess that's their biggest hit Stevie Wright went on to record a three part song called Evie if you haven't heard it do yourself a favour and go listen to it!
When I saw the blades I knew the fan "trick" was not dangerous. It would be if he was on the other side but from this side, the sharp is in the back, so you just hit the fan with the long flat part if you just go in slow to touch the fan and you won't hit the rear (Aka the actual sharp part) but rather just slide against the whole of the fan blade. Not impressive at all.
That's why this is called a trick, as it appears as if he is risking his young being cut when in fact he isn't. Not much different then a "dangerous" magic trick like (Penn and Teller are known for) which isn't really dangerous, it's just designed to fool the audiences into thinking it is.
Agree 100%. It just seems dangerous because most people aren't like you and I, with the ability to determine the entire physics of it by looking at it. "They" just see spinning blades and think "oh my God". I could stop that blade with my genitals, and a t worst maybe suffer some minor brush burn.

Love it

This was THE ONE stupid human trick that truly confounded Dave
I remember Scott Vassil from one of the anniversary specials. He seems like a cool dude.

If you're Scolari after the stupid 'fan' trick, you just get in a cab and go home… There's no following that.
I bet he got all the ladies back in the day with that fan trick
I mean, if he can do THAT with his tongue...
It’s crazy watching this knowing my parents were younger than I am now back then but it feel like these people are still my age
One of the rare occasions when David wasn't the wildest guy in the room.
He looks so mystified...
The Easy Beats was Angus and Malcom Young's (AC/DC) older brother, George's band.
The definitive stupid human tricks.
jrpipik agreed. Watched this live back in the day. If you say “stupid human tricks” to me this is what I think of.
I think this is one of the most extreme ones?? Correct me if I'm wrong..
When he held up the fan 😂
The fan guy was awesome.
The pencil guy is the best!
I remember the guy with the fan... put Dave in a daze.
7:35 7:43 8:08 are THE best parts!
😆👏

That guy has a fan club.
And in those days, window fans had metal blades.
I'm Scott's biggest fan.
You take a risk everyday, sticking your face in a fan ..
Actually Evie Parts 1,2 & 3, She's so fine as well as Friday on my mind were classics by the Easybeats too
Now *that* is a Boston accent.
How about a Sandra Bernhard compilation? Please.

Australia is not a real country so that doesn't count
@@airgunfun4248 Australia is a country. And spare me the "It's just a continent" BS.

@airgun fun!
🤣🤣😂😂
@@airgunfun4248 I see. Well, I cannot disagree with those points. You are correct about them not being independent nations. Awesome reply. 👍
Have you got the one of the dad with the baby daughter? No reason other than it was a very sweet moment with bubbles!

Scott’s popular with the ladies.
Scott Vassil (Fan tongue guy) : any relation to 9/11 victim Scott Vassil ??
And now we have Fallon, Kimmel, and Corben. How sad.
I feel cheated by Phil Anderson's trick. But they're supposed tto be stupid tricks, so..

Do it yourself then. Make sure to post the video here.
Correct
I’m sure that would still hurt like hell to a random person trying that.

The animal tricks are better
