Officially the world’s worst comedian.

And officially the world’s worst comedy routine…

I may have shown you the horrors of Daniel Songer before. Well, I apologies, because here’s another slice of Songer for you…

So many why’s…

1) Why is he dressed as a 9 year old boy?
2) Why does he sing ‘Happy Birthday’ like that?
3) Why – sorry – where is he physically standing?
4) Why is he ALWAYS shouting?
5) Why does he do that ‘Name’ song?
6) Why, why, why? Etc…

Please send me your why’s. I’m sure you’ll have loads.

Props to Dougg Lussenhop for this internettal horror.

    1) Why does the policeman sing just like him?
    2) Why does this make me laugh so much more than most standup comedy?
    3) Why is he doing standup in the middle of a rainforest?
    4) Why does Dan do what Dan does?

    The payoff to the lifeguard joke at 3.00 is a zinger – he even waits for a non-existent audience reaction.

    “What Would Dan Do?” was just confusing – the dance, the lack of any direction

    Am I the only person who feels he should have been performing some DIY skills during his routine?

    This is also the guy from the infamous “8 Octaves On The Piano” video, although he seems to have removed that video now, which is a shame, because it was… interesting.

    I’ve laughed more at traffic accidents.

    I spent the whole time hoping he’d suddenly be kidnapped by monkeys.

    Why would Dan do.

    Why does he keep squatting down? It makes me afraid that the seams of his shorts will give out.

  • Joellifer

    Why did I waster 5 minutes and 46 seconds of my life watching him?

    Also…why do my more primitive instincts show themselves? It would have been far funnier if the platform collapsed while he was gyrating and bouncing all over it.

    Good Lord. Can imagine his double-act with Brian Blessed.

    I suppose you had to be there. By ‘there’, I mean anywhere but where this man is.

    this is why we should ban the internet

    why is he on the set of ‘celebrity get me out of here’?

    Oh dear. Oh dear me. Why has nobody told him?

  • Lino

    In fairness, he has come a long way since the first video.. Well, all the way from the front door to the porch.. Don’t know why he dropped the artistic dancing though, that was a winner for me..

    Hey Guys!

    He clearly has someone filming him. Why are they allowing this to continue?

  • Rory

    The beginning of part 28 is a killer one-liner.

  • http://twitter.com/jefy Jefy

    Why didn’t he go to the toilet before recording this?

  • Kempy

    Holy mother of Jesus! Why cant I stop watching!

    Why does he look like a thumb?

  • FrankBruno

    Why has the person filming agreed to do so 30 times?

  • Anonymous

    why was he ever allowed to make a part 2 ~ let alone a part 31 ~ before being restrained and returned to the asylum?

  • tetongo

    for some reason I can smell him through the screen

    my god he’s crap

    I like his decking. It appears to be robust too as I would estimate his weight as ‘large’.

  • http://twitter.com/_ade Ade Rowbotham

    Why is he actually mathematically possible?

    WWDD ?

    That….was….horrible. It was like watching a man before a firing squad who will only let him live if he entertains them constantly. What was with the singing? And the skin tight hotpants?!

  • http://twitter.com/PieterZombi Pieter Westerhof

    I’m glad he keeps brushing his invisible fringe from in front of his face, it was really distracting.

    5) It’s a parody of the already awful song “What Have They Done To My Brain”.

    The worst ever audition for I’m A Celebrity presenter .. don’t call us!!

    Christ. That just gave me a headache. And massive rage.

    Wow, usually they don’t allow belts and shoelaces in an asylum.

    “Hey Guys!”
    “What? …….. SHUT THE FUCK UP and put your legs together.

    I assumed he’d set the camera up on his own, but NO. SOMEONE IS FILMING IT. Why did they not tell him?

  • Macron 1

    1) Why do his shorts have ‘turn ups’ ?
    2) Why does he squat to sing/bellow ?
    3) Why does the cameraman/woman react with absolute silence to the ‘comedy’ ?
    4) Why did I laugh at the lifeguard ‘joke’ ?

  • Chris

    Why do people say still say “It’s all at matter of self confidence -if you think you can do it, then you will succeed.” Because this guy has self confidence coming out of his ears. And he is bollox.

  • http://twitter.com/tomdaylight tomdaylight

    1) He thinks he is Michael Jackson
    2) He has a throat disorder
    3) He is standing on an invisible running machine
    4) He thinks his audience can’t hear him, whereas actually they’re trying to ignore him
    5) Alien entities from Saturn beamed the song directly into his head
    6) I don’t know. Youtube gave up on loading the video after 5:19, it had obviously had enough of him
    7) He doesn’t have any neighbours, you can clearly see he lives in the woods on his own.
