Toss it in the river!

The dummy too!

u/Cunctatious 13h ago

It’s much better manners to toss it in private

I have never seen a ventriloquist dummy that wasnt terrifying

u/Enginerdad 6h ago edited 5h ago

Ventriloquists are usually performing for a crowd of people who aren't sitting close to the stage. Facial features have to be exaggerated so the details and expressions can be picked up from far away. It's the same reason stage makeup looks so garish up close.

Came to say this. I don't know why people still make them in this style. So unsettling.

u/mrFabels 15h ago

That is incredible..and it would be hilarious, if there was just his buddy sitting under the table

u/EqualGlittering 15h ago

It's like when you try to catch yourself in the mirror. Anyone else ever do that and you're always just a second away.

Do you have a carbon monoxide detector?

Could also be black mold

u/2squishmaster 11h ago

But more likely the coworker poisoning them a tiny bit every day, right?

when you try to catch the refrigerator light going off after closing the door

Perhaps another hobby to explore with your free time.

You one of those people who wonder how can the mirror see your face if your behind a towel?

Is this the puppet?

u/p0dgert0n 6h ago

Don't put underage kids on the internet

u/ApothecaryAlyth 14h ago

The puppet looks like that 40 year old dude who says he looks like a teenager.

u/AlwaysShittyKnsasCty 14h ago

Just a normal 17-year-old.

“Double voice” ventriloquism as shown in this video is very difficult and rare, but there are probably a handful of artists have mastered this skill.

43

u/cheesehead144 14h ago

It's an absurd level of skill but listening to it closely you can still hear the dummy's voice come 'after' but I think the illusion is that he's talking more slowly 'broadly' while the dummy is talking 'tightly' so it seems like it overlaps.

My brain vs my mouth

u/Creepy-Ant373 7h ago

That doll looks like the that 40 year old who thinks he looks like he's 16 and it both makes me not able to take him seriously and creeps me out

Omg I see it and I know exactly who you’re talking about 🤣

u/brute-forced 15h ago

Don’t believe it. This is one of those things that is truly unbelievable and to be honest I don’t actually believe it… Obviously I could be wrong but personally, I just don’t believe this is what’s happening.

157

u/zamfire 14h ago

So what you are saying is that you don't believe it

52

u/baogody 14h ago

He's saying that he honestly wouldn’t buy into a single word of this story because the whole thing just sounds way too absurd to be real, and he just can’t bring himself to swallow any of it, though sure, he could always end up being wrong, but at the end of the day, his gut is just straight up refusing to believe this is actually happening.

u/2squishmaster 11h ago

It's wild, can you believe it?

So what you're saying is....nevermind

u/One_Web_7940 14h ago

I choked reading that.   Very astute observation.  Lol

u/brute-forced 12h ago

No, what Im saying is I don’t believe it. This is one of those things that is truly unbelievable and to be honest I don’t actually believe it… Obviously I could be wrong but personally, I just don’t believe this is what’s happening.

u/rhonnypudding 13h ago

No, I think he's saying he doesn't believe it.

•

u/pedrofg 3h ago

He is saying that he literally doesn't believe in it.

•

u/PlanetMarklar 10h ago

The only thing that makes it believable is seeing what beatboxers are capable of, but that's not talking

6

u/bZbZbZbZbZ 14h ago

i agree, while the idea is initially implausible the realisation of the skill is equally improbable hence i therefore decree that it is not in fact the case that events are occurring in the purported manner

•

u/2squishmaster 11h ago

You may call your next witness council

•

u/Pawtuckaway 9h ago

Yeah, I don't believe it either. He doesn't seem like he is all that good even during the first bits when they are talking separately. When the dummy is talking he looks very strained and many times is even visibly moving his lips.

I don't believe for a second that suddenly he can switch back and forth perfectly while looking like it is only him speaking naturally when he couldn't do that before.

•

u/Hoppss 6h ago

Agreed, when the dummy is talking the guys face/mouth look strained like it's taking a lot of effort. And that's with just one voice going on.

•

u/RememberThinkDream 9h ago

I don't believe you.

•

u/brute-forced 9h ago

Well, don’t believe it then. This is one of those things that is truly unbelievable and to be honest I don’t actually believe it… Obviously I could be wrong but personally, I just don’t believe this is what’s happening.

u/senpaistealerx 14h ago

well, you are wrong, so

u/mkMoSs 14h ago

so what?

u/2squishmaster 11h ago

So you're not allowed to hold that position. You can't. Straight to jail, can you believe it?

u/andray-c 13h ago

But do you do it simultaneously and overlap?

•

u/SkriVanTek 11h ago

basically like beat box artists doing several instruments at the same time I guess

which, by the way, I deem as equally impossible as this

•

u/knabbprime 6h ago

Jeff Dunham sucks even without comparison but this guy puts him to SHAME.

u/Nova762 13h ago

Never seen an act do that so I'm suspicious af.  Over dubbing is a lot easier.

u/Seoulja4life 13h ago

This reminded me of Rahzel beatboxing and singing simultaneously.

u/MatsyLR 14h ago

What the hell, I refuse to believe its real

u/Ynbadmud 14h ago

It's pretty interesting that a human can overtalk himself... Ventriloquism, on the other hand, is.... not.

u/MeanForest 13h ago

No shot.

I bet he could do a really good Ryan Reynolds impression. Similar vocal timbre.

u/angelofox 4h ago

They're both possessed

u/Jakeforry 3h ago

Still very hard to do but I have a feeling if you slowed it down the voices would be between eachother hence why he was talking fast to make the words begin to blend

•

u/nakhumpoota 3h ago

Yup and each word is cut off leaving your brain to complete it which adds to the trick.

and? if you enjoy it, why not?

Imagine what kind of a loser you'd have to be to disparage someone because they have a really impressive skill that took a lot of practice.
