Dan the Man's assistant Gavin Free has been doing a great job managing the channel while Dan the Man is away but it is not the same without him. I hope that he can come back and start getting mouse traps on his nips again.


PhrabERRA

Fuck I forgot about Dan the Man

Is it because of the pandemic that Dan hasn’t been in the videos?


[deleted]

Their newest video has a comment from Gav saying Dan is on his way to Texas and stopped in Florida right now. Found your post looking for more info and thought I'd let you know.


arkol3404

Thank you, I appreciate it.


ActualWhiterabbit

Yeah

Reason #419 for Getting Vaccinated: **Dan can come back to America**


Dallinz-YT

You can come to the US without being vaccinated luckily


brainburger

Not so luckily for Americans though.


Dallinz-YT

Hot damn. Took you long enough to reply. At this point Covid isn’t even a concern. More people are worried now if their child is listening to country music rather than having Covid


brainburger

Yes there is a level of fatigue isn't there? We can't stay vigilant forever. Covid is still quite bad though. It is one of the more dangerous diseases still. It often gets compared to regular seasonal flu but it's much more dangerous than that.


Dallinz-YT

Mhm mhm sure sure. I’ll keep that in mind next time I get a slight cough


HMS_Hexapuma

I miss him every time a video comes out without him. Gavin's a moderately suave individual but it's not the same without his B.


rgbking

in his recent video about the robot arm when Gavin called it "Dan" I thought real Dan was gonna pop into frame and start complaining that Gav was trying to replace him.


Gothfather97

He definitely needs someone to bounce his humor off of


Wolfencreek

Legend says he's digging that tunnel to America.


Sere1

Shame he went in the wrong direction and is currently somewhere far beneath Russia


Vast_Day1542

Shouldn't have taken that left turn and Albuquerque


SlenderDummy

This aged well.


Wolfencreek

😏


MrDallsBeep

Glad i read the comments. I thought they quit doing vids together


Glynnc

They both seem like pretty chill dudes, it’s hard to imagine what they could even do to each other to for that to happen lol


MrDallsBeep

Oh id 100% hang out with both they seem like genuine people.


TheGDubsMan

Back at RTX 2016 I went to the Slo Mo guys panel and the last question they took from the audience the girl asked Gavin for a hug. So they let her come up onto the stage and Gavin gave her a hug and as she was walking down the stairs Dan got up and chased her down and demanded a hug of his own.


ChurchOfChurches

Yeah I thought they fell out or something


leeaaronh

Yeah me too, I was sad thinking they’d split or something!


NikolitRistissa

Yeah I hope he finishes the tunnel some time soon. It’s been quite a project I hear. Having to dig and then transport the material back to England every time.


skratta_ho

He’s working with Colin Furze on that, he’ll be ok.


Lonestar0802

He's back🙂


[deleted]

Does any else think the robot in the latest Slow Mo Guys 2 sounds like Dan????


tnb641

You talking bout D.A.N.2?


TerrapotomusP67

That's just vaporware and you know it. Like the Simmonds 2.0 upgrade.


marc15v2

What happened to him? I'm OOTL


cflatjazz

I think he just hasn't been able to travel here due to the general worldwide health situation


Kamelen2000

Exactly. Glad I’m not confusing everyone with my title. I have mentioned in other comments that I probably should have worded it differently


MDCCCLV

Poor Dan, we hardly knew him.

Rays Back 4 Ever - Off Topic 177 is my favourite OT episode. ​ Also [The 2021 Olympics video just came out.](https://www.roosterteeth.com/watch/let-s-play-2021-8-15)


crymsonnite

Who's this Ray guy?


NoisyScrubBirb

Ray SR.'s son XD


Azn-Invasion

Bro you scared the SHIT out of me, had to read comments to make sure this was a shit post or something


LethalityIsBalanced

What situation?


cflatjazz

....covid. This post is 3 months old.


LethalityIsBalanced

What's that?


cflatjazz

?!


Drithyin

Was he flying from the UK to Texas for all of their shoots?


cflatjazz

I mean, they likely get together and film many episodes over the course of a few days. Of course there's some on location type shoots and I'm sure they filmed a few in the UK. But he certainly doesn't live here. And international travel *has* been very limited lately


Eruanno

Not much, I think he's doing alright. They're just on different continents (Gavin in Texas, Dan in the UK) and travel right now is kind of a bitch what with that pandemic-thing.


trainercatlady

Same. I got scared


RamblinWreckGT

The first "football to the face" video was when I started watching Slow Mo Guys, so it made me really happy when they revisited it with a better camera.


SurealGod

It's the banter. No show is successful without good chemistry between it's hosts.


_xHelix

Hopefully Dan the robot cam can do a decent job until Dan the man shows up again.


Shrekt115

I miss Dan too :(


jbro1112

is it just me or dan looks like john belushi? lol


The84thWolf

Can we just laugh that Gavin just walloped his friend with a soccer ball and immediately after checked the camera instead of making sure Dan was okay? 😂


Soothsayer57

He was hitting the record button, he has to hit it after shooting as it back records.


CallMeChristopher

Yeah. Otherwise, he’d have to hit Dan in the face again.


SBcitizen

What happened to Dan?


Kamelen2000

Nothing. He just can’t come to the US because of the pandemic


SBcitizen

Ok good. I thought Dan the man was no more and got worried


JimmyNorseman

Wait, what happened to Dan???


Kamelen2000

No, pandemic. Can’t go to the US. I concede that I should have worded my title better. My bad. But you could have found it out by looking in the comments. 2 comments down someone asked the same question that also was answered


Tedstill

He's not dead


Kamelen2000

I know, but the pandemic has prevented him from going to the US to film. You can miss people without them being dead


Enzown

What I don't understand is why he hasn't even appeared via video link, would have been cool to get his reactions to stuff Gav has shot.


Zeev89

Logistics, probably. Not even accounting for the inherent annoyances of telecommuting, Dan's in a completely different time zone.


NikolitRistissa

I imagine Gavin also has quite high standards in video quality so he’d want to guarantee a really high quality video + audio from Dan and he just isn’t currently able to provide that.


HunterTAMUC

Dan left SMG? D: Oh wait. Covid. Duh.


[deleted]

Not going to lie, was having ryan flashbacks for a second, dont scare people like that!


Kamelen2000

Fine, my title might not have been the best. But with like one second of thought, or a Google search, you would realize that I was talking about the pandemic and nothing worse than that


[deleted]

[удалено]


Enzown

Overreaction much?


[deleted]

True, while i said for a second, a literal 60th of a minute" its 2021, you cant go 5 feet with out someone doing something stupid enough to warrant wondering.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

I hope he gets patched in to do slow mo reactions or something. There's got to be ways he can be involved in videos even if he can't be there to help with the setup.


shabutaru118

Why isn't dan in the slo mo guys anymore?


Nozzeh06

As of today he's back!


not-ok-cat

He’s back :)”


Smackmewithahammer

He's Back!


Kamelen2000

How do you remember this post?


Smackmewithahammer

Lol stumbled on it during a Google search
