Notice how President Reagan, a Republican, was sitting next to Speaker of the House, Tip O'Neal, a Democrat, and his wife. They had staunch differences, but could put them aside and act like humans should. This could never happen today.

The older I get, the more I appreciate entertainers who work clean.
-
He's not only a great comedian he's a great juggler too, good old school entertainment.
-
This act is forty years old but I still come back to it occasionally. 👍🏼👍🏼
-
Great entertainment without the "F" bomb or other vulgarities. Great juggling skills.
-
This is one of the greatest acts I've ever seen, regardless of genre!
-
The truly amazing thing about this guy is, this was the 80s so you had Richard Pryor, George carlin Eddie Murphy dice clay. This guy did not swear once were really even tell a joke and you were laughing the whole time. He’s a pure comedic genius.
-
What a act totally worthy of the standing ovation at the end.😀👍👍
-
Wow , I just discovered this and Its almost a 100% perfect routine. I'm a brit and sometimes American humour doesn't work here ,but this is way up there, Genius
-
He should be very very proud of this performance. It was "Flawless", 110%....
-
Too bad we have so few entertainers like this now.
-
Pure class, style, what comedian wears a tux, is clean, funny, with short 1 liners. The good ol’ days 🤪

Michael is the reason i became a juggler. I watched his act in London and as part of it he invited someone from the audience to come up on stage & juggle with him using a sliced load, a chicken & a pound of butter (unwrapped of course). I loved it so much that i taught myself how to juggle, bought front row seats for a later performance & was lucky to be chosen to come up on stage with him. I can honestly say that I've performed on stage in the west end with an artiste who has entertained the most powerful man in the world...

The reaction shots of the Reagan's is not phony. They were from an older generation and appreciated this guy's act. (I did, too) Michael Davis was a gem.
-
This guy always reminds me of Victor Borge... they both have amazing talents, but it's their comic timing and delivery that makes them stand out.
-
Politicians these days can fluently juggle 3-4 lies in one sentence, especially around elections.🤫
-
‘Razor-sharp bowling ball’ kills me everytime😂
-
Good old times when Jugglers made politicians laughing so hard... Today it's quite the opposite.
-
Making Reagan laugh like that is a deep compliment, given his entertainment background. This guy would've slayed in Vaudeville.

Oh it’s so perfect. Davis really came up with the greatest comedy juggling routine in history. So much of his street routine on show - ‘don’t throw it back whatever you do… it’s my fault - I picked you’. Really the best to ever do it.
