This is my favourite video I’ve ever made. I hope you enjoy it :) In case you’re new here, I don’t share my son’s face which is why I chose the camera angles and edited it this way. I massively appreciate you all for respecting that.
I can’t wait until this kid grows up and looks back on his dad’s legacy. I don’t expect him to take after his dad’s interests, but I hope he does well in whatever he becomes fascinated in
As a preschool teacher I just wanted to say to keep up the great work. You're choosing games based on his interest, acknowledging what he sees, asking him about what things are and "correcting" him when repeating his words with correct pronunciation, and encouraging him to talk. All these things contribute in a good way to his learning both about the things he's interested in, and his language proficiency. You seem to be a great dad! I had a smile on my face throughout the entire video. Thank you! :)
I’ll be honest, I completely forgot about this guy. Used to watch his minecraft videos back in the day but as everyone does, I grew up out of that. I found this again in my recommendations and I was surprised it’s the same channel still showing steady growth and still pumping out quality content. What makes me even happier is I haven’t heard a single controversy surrounding Dan ever since I stopped watching him
Brilliant video Dan. Asher is so flipping cute and you’re an amazing dad. Seriously, it was so good, I might even consider subscribing and becoming part of TeamTDM today!
I remember you guys playing Minecraft Monday's together and that was got me interested in minecraft . Thanks Think and Dan for all you have done for the gaming space.
Dan’s brother is a psychopathic, TNT loving, chaotic, lovable villager. Ah yes, makes perfect sense. Not business partners or friends, blood-related siblings. 😂
A lot of people when they have kids call their best friends or best friends the uncle or aunt even if they aren't blood related. @@ismailmashhadani6377
This makes me wanna cry 🥺 Dan, my little brother and I used to watch your videos all of the time, and seeing you so many years later, with a beautiful life and family of your own, raising a child, it's so touching. I'm so proud of the person you turned out to be. Asher is absolutely adorable ❤
@@kupkate04 how Dareth you tell me to go away! That is disrespect! And I will not stand for it!!!!! It's about drive it's about power we stay hungry we devour put in the work put in the hours and take what's ours!
I remember being the goofy young kid that started watching Dan’s mod reviews and laughing at stuff I didn’t even understand. Now being almost old enough to drive it’s really heart warming to see that silly teenager that started out with a villager and a bone dog teaching his son these things that he loves doing. I hope that no matter what happens in his life. Asher can look back and go, “That’s my dad,” And smile.
Seeing my childhood youtuber go from playing custom minecraft mods to being a dad is just amazing. It's good to see that Dan is a very good dad and a wholesome one too. It's crazy how Asher is 2 already too. I can tell he's gonna grow up and at some point look at his dad's videos to know his dad was amazing at content creating and raising his son too. Love this video so much.
Bro I'm legit cryin I know he had a kid but 2 years old man dang, I remember his vlogs of his old pugs an I remember the skeleton dog he had in minecraft,,,,,, which ngl I forgot his name😭😭😭 but I also remember doctor, I forgot his name to but it was long lmao and he had dat one base in da desert
I love how Dan isn’t showing his kids face. He respects his privacy and doesn’t purposely shove a camera in his face. Dan is a perfect example of how to be a good parent. 👍
Seeing Dan with his own kid is so heartwarming and nostalgic. He literally raised most of us. If he needs another child, I will literally be up for adoption.
you are my childhood i have watched you my whole life, its crazy that you have kids, its so nice of you to not show his face for your sons privacy Love you Dan!
this video genuinely made my day, thank you so much Dan. SO WHOLESOME! Best wishes for Ashers future! Also I didn't know you were such a great dad haha!

This vid shows how absolutely amazing dan is at being a dad , not only did he raise a whole generation of kids through a screen. but 2 of his own. Proud of you dan
The fact that this man singlehandedly raised me and so many others and now has his own child is just wild. We've watched him mature and grow as much as he's helped us grow. And the way he is with his son is just incredible it makes me wanna cry :,)
As someone who's watched Dan for 9 years or something and having grown up with him and seeing how he's changed is so amazing, and now seeing him with his child is just so heartwarming
Its honestly so heartwarming that a man who has inspired most of my childhood involving video games is taking the time to raise a child and still do the UA-cam career at the Same time. And I’m glad that he’s going to grow up and find out the legacy his father has.
After watching his videos for 9 years, looking back to the time when he creates a video with Dr. Trayaurus, along with Grim and his old lab. I really want to thank you, Dan. For all of the childhood memories that you have given me and to all of your old subscribers. We're really happy to see how far you have progressed throughout the years. You have raised us just as much as you raised your child right now. We're all looking forward to seeing what the future holds next. Stay happy and stay safe.
It’s crazy to see Dan grow as a person, i remember getting home from school and being exited for the new mod adventure, now returning to the channel to see Dan raise a child of his own, good for you Dan, we all hope the best for Asher’s future and we all hope that you and your family are doing well! 💎❤️
yes me too, made me tear up. i never appreciated or thought about how lucky i was to be doing this, have minecraft, all those games, and dan, it’s a kinda happy pain.
I know right! I always hate when UA-camrs have a kid and immediately show their face and use them for views not caring! Dan has done a great job of actually caring and playing with his son and keeping his privacy.
From raising people online to raising his own son! This man is really something to behold, being with him from the start on this amazing journey, we wish him all the best, what an amazing father, to both the people online and Asher!
Yea absolute legend hes such an amazing person hes been making videos for so many years and hes still makes such good content to this day thats somewhat family friendly
@@pakistanarmedforces7814 Sir, please this isn't the video to be putting your hate. I'm fine with any other video comment that is not on this video. I'm even fine if you decide to hate my channel but don't be hating anyone on this video, me being the exception as I won't care if you hate me or not. Just don't hate on anyone here, any other video is fine but not here.
This made me tear up to be honest. Ever since I was around 6, I've watched Dan and he's inspired me to play games, and ive learnt a lot. It inspired me to show others about games, and play it with them. Watching this, and seeing Dan inspire his own child to play, reminded me of how he taught me. I felt as silly as Asher was when I was younger. The fact Dan brung up my generation, and is now bringing up more and more makes me soul burn. Thank you, dan, for being an amazing teacher for us all. A teacher in gaming.
I've been watching Dan since I was 7 years old. Seeing Dan now makes me feel old even though I'm only 14. Personally one of the most memorable icons on this platform and is probably the same for many others. So glad to see he still makes and enjoys making content to this day.
This is the most wholesome thing ive seen all week, actually made me cry. Love your work Dan, and seeing you share your passion with Asher warms my heart. At 16 years old now, i have spent ten years thoroughly enjoying your content and i will continue to do so for many years to come
This video is probably the best and most wholesome thing on Dan's channel, and to the people who dislike this... actually there's no one disliking this. I love the connection Dan has with Asher as well, being so patient with him whilst attempting to show him how to play... it's so adorable.
Dan, I just want to say that the people in the comments are speaking for all of us. The people you’ve raised online and your own son have a lot to thank you for, and this comment section is genuine with every word. Keep being you Dan and I hope Asher will understand the legacy you had on this app.
so many memories were build on this very channel. he will get to witness his father’s career build throughout all the videos, and i think that’s just bonkers (in a good way)
man i love this. this man singlehandedly raised a whole generation, and now said generation is watching him raise the next. cannot wait to see both of them playing minecraft together again! maybe this could be the start of a new custom mod adventures series?
Can’t believe how much time has passed. I remember watching Dan back in the laboratory days. Dr. Trayarus and Grim always being in the videos reviewing cool mods and doing awesome adventures. I was around 10 or 11 then and now I’m almost 19 years old. Seeing him as a father now is the craziest thing ever to me. Hope Asher grows up to be amazing and become just as successful as his father. Love you Dan!
Same I remember those days too watching him do all the different minecraft horror maps and everything since I was around 10-11 I’m 18 now. I haven’t watched in a while I’m so shocked to see he has a 2 yr old son he’s so adorable, they look so happy… and I feel so old😭
This literally made my week. Such heartwarming content. I hope Asher looks back and sees everything his Daddy did. Thank you, Dan, for entertaining me for as long as I can remember! And thank you, Asher, for making this the best video! 😊
Quite strange but still really wholesome! I’ve been watching him since i was 6 or 7 and its been an amazing journey watching him, his channel and community develop (while I was basically still developing as well lol) and I really respect him for not showing his son’s face and he’s just genuinely a great person, youtuber and dad!) Hope to see what the future gifts and its been a great ride with him throughout the years!
I used to watch his content all the time when I was little, now I'm "grown" and rembered his stuff, so I searched him up, I'm happy to see his content is still doing well, and its crazy to me he's got a kid now, I'm sure this kids gonna grow up crazy proud Dan's his dad.
I’m very happy to see Dan as a happy parent, from going to a small channel as a teenager to being a massive channel who inspired millions and becoming an adult with a child, I can’t wait to see how Asher grows which by the way is the beautiful name , to appreciate what his dad did for us and him and hope he does well in his life
This is actually crazy to see Dan after the.. what.. 5 years I've watched him I think? It's great to see him still being a youtuber, AND a FATHER. Most youtubers probably couldn't handle that. honestly RESPECT
This was the most wholesome thing I’ve ever watched. I genuinely shed a tear watching Dan raise his own kid so well after raising millions of us. Thanks Dan.
I haven't watched in years, and seeing this now is great. Seeing you're raising your own family, giving your son the best possible upbringing you can is just, heartwarming.
Dan is such a great dad, respecting his sons privacy and all is really good example of being a model. I can’t wait to see his son look back at these types of videos and whatever his son does i’m sure we’ll all be proud!
I love that Dan is letting us meet Asher but keeping Asher's life and face private. It's clear he isn't exploiting his son for views, yet he's still letting the community learn to love Asher as much as we've come to love Dan. Thank you for this incredible video Dan, hopefully you keep doing youtube and enjoying youtube for many more years to come!
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen from a true content creator. It's been a long time coming, Dan. We're all super proud of you and how far you've come. Stay safe, and stay happy. I'm certain we're all looking forward to seeing what the future holds next. See you later, take care.
I'm a little late but you gotta let him explore the cars. They are my favorite thing. It's a really massive community with a lot of outlets and can be enjoyed regardless of age.
I love how you are keeping Asher's identity hidden, it's really nice that you are giving him that chance to decide when he's older if he wants to be on UA-cam or not. Unlike those family channels where someone's whole life is broadcast to the world.
@@pakistanarmedforces7814 According to the world population studies, approximately 108 billion people have lived on this planet. Assuming the average lifespan of all these people were 25, there has been 2.7 trillion years of life, or right around 1 million trillion days of life. That’s 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 days. Not once in any of those days did anybody ask.
I love how Dan isn’t showing his kids face. He respects his privacy and doesn’t purposely shove a camera in his face. Dan is a perfect example of how to be a good parent.
Watching Dan as a dad now truly hits me the fact that time indeed flies. So happy that I have now watched the relationship between Dan and Asher which is so heartwarming.
I’ve been watching Dan since I was 9 years old. I’m now 19, almost in my 20’s. I grew up watching this man and to now see him teach his son to play games I grew up watching Dan play is so emotional to me. But I also feel so old 😂
This is so wholesome ❤❤ Asher is so intelligent for his age as proven in this video that his speech is so advanced for age 2 😊❤😊❤ Love you Dan I've been watching you for a number of years and your videos, both new and old, still bring a smile to my face on the most difficult of days 💙 Thankyou dan for an awesome early childhood ❤️
I’m not sure I agree with him playing video games so early in life because he won’t want to stop and he has everything at his disposal to do whatever he wants and it could be difficult for him to get off it.
@@mallorykelm9873 he is right though, giving video games to young kids so early can cause a bad habit, once u take the games off them, they cry and cry and cry.
It’s crazy to think that this guy raised an entire generation myself included, and now he’s raising an entire child and he’s doing a really good job too. Much Love to you Dan your son and your wife
I haven’t watched Dan in ages! And coming back to his channel makes me smile. Showing how responsible he is with Asher is amazing. He’s such a good dad.
Fr! I came back and I didn’t even know he had a son. Last time I watched him they were talking about having kids but never got through with it. It’s amazing seeing how much can change in a short amount of time.
Dan really has come far, I remember being 7 watching him and the Dr playing mods... They really were my memories, and now he's become a father, and a very good one at that. I hope Asher grows up to appreciate his old man
The fact that dan hasn’t showed Asher’s face shows how much he values his personal privacy exposure. Most families that are on yt immediately upload a video about their new baby or somethin. This just deserves high respect, for all his hard work I hope Asher turns out great older when he looks at all of dan’s work. I remeber watching Dan in 2014 all the way to 2019 and then I stopped after that but his growth never stopped. Your content is something I will truly remember for my entire life. Thanks for everything dan
hands down probably my favorite video Dan has made recently. possibly ever, although his old lab videos have a lot of nostalgia and are hard to beat... either way, i loved this, Asher is amazing and i hope one day he'll grow up and see what an awesome father he has
@@rezra7237 Ikr, my brother can only speak 1 word at a time and he's born in the same month and year, and here I thought I did a good job. Dan did a really good job
Bro.. After years of watching Dan play a plethora of games and doing many other activities which helped me learn English at a young age I brainstormed a lot to pick which video is his best and I have to admit that THIS video was the best video he has ever made. Dan used to be a guy living in a small space in England, doing Minecraft modded videos and just giving us a great way to kill some time. And now, he’s a father of this hilarious innocent boy named Asher. I hope when Asher grows up looks back at who his father was and what he did. He might not follow in his footsteps however I’m sure he’d make a great man in the future.
Man I remember when this cute little guy was just born 2 years back, seeing him speaking and full of life, able to walk is just so heartwarming and makes me very hopeful for your son Dan. You raised Gen Z and now we get to watch you raise the next generation including your own son! Bravo, Dan! - A fan since 2013 :)
I haven’t watched the channel in a couple years, but Dan was my entire childhood. It’s amazed me seeing how much he’s grown since I last watched his videos, and it’s brought me to literal tears. We love you Dan
The nostalgia that Dan brings back, is just life changing. The time that I met Dan at the 2017 Sydney Luna Park show in October, when he ran down the isle at the beginning and high fived my hand... from that point on, that was the best moment of my life. Truly an icon that basically founded my childhood. ❤
This is my favourite video I’ve ever made. I hope you enjoy it :)
In case you’re new here, I don’t share my son’s face which is why I chose the camera angles and edited it this way. I massively appreciate you all for respecting that.
I respect your decision and asher is so cuuteeee < 3
Hi Dan

Best video Dan has ever made, it truly shows how far he has come in not only his career, but as a father.

And as a person
from a emo teen to a dad.

As a preschool teacher I just wanted to say to keep up the great work. You're choosing games based on his interest, acknowledging what he sees, asking him about what things are and "correcting" him when repeating his words with correct pronunciation, and encouraging him to talk. All these things contribute in a good way to his learning both about the things he's interested in, and his language proficiency. You seem to be a great dad!

YOOOOOOO CORY

Hello
CORYYYYYYY!!!
Its honestly so heartwarming that a man who has inspired most of my childhood involving video games is taking the time to raise a child and still do the UA-cam career at the Same time. And I’m glad that he’s going to grow up and find out the legacy his father has.
To be fair hes been having kids since he started his channel
After watching his videos for 9 years, looking back to the time when he creates a video with Dr. Trayaurus, along with Grim and his old lab. I really want to thank you, Dan. For all of the childhood memories that you have given me and to all of your old subscribers. We're really happy to see how far you have progressed throughout the years. You have raised us just as much as you raised your child right now. We're all looking forward to seeing what the future holds next. Stay happy and stay safe.
😔🙏
Omg nostalgic😭 I was in elementary school back then now I'm graduating from highschool
and when he used to play MCPE with 1 hand LMAOOOO dude had hardcore mode on hardcore mode
Damn Dan has a son I havnt watched him since 2018. Watched him since the 2012 days and happy for him
Wow I am on the brink of tears. So proud of how far you've come Dan. I've been a fan ever since I was a little kid.
It’s crazy to see Dan grow as a person, i remember getting home from school and being exited for the new mod adventure, now returning to the channel to see Dan raise a child of his own, good for you Dan, we all hope the best for Asher’s future and we all hope that you and your family are doing well! 💎❤️
And I hope one day Asher takes his dads legacy and becomes a UA-camr himself inspiring the next next generation
Same I'm crying of nostalgia rn
@@CPTNAMERICA that’s if he wants to we have to respect his interests
ya im really hope asher takes Dans legacy too and if does im going to watch asher❤
yes me too, made me tear up. i never appreciated or thought about how lucky i was to be doing this, have minecraft, all those games, and dan, it’s a kinda happy pain.
The fact he is trying to keep his son face away from camera is just huge respect
I know right! I always hate when UA-camrs have a kid and immediately show their face and use them for views not caring! Dan has done a great job of actually caring and playing with his son and keeping his privacy.
4:04 he even blurred his cam

From raising people online to raising his own son! This man is really something to behold, being with him from the start on this amazing journey, we wish him all the best, what an amazing father, to both the people online and Asher!
Yea absolute legend hes such an amazing person hes been making videos for so many years and hes still makes such good content to this day thats somewhat family friendly
@@flaminfoe9156 lmao, "sometimes" but I completely agree!
6:04 IS ADORABLE
Big respect on him not showing his son's face in his videos until his son is old enough to decide if he really does want to be infront of a camera.
I didn't ask

@@pakistanarmedforces7814 Sir, please this isn't the video to be putting your hate. I'm fine with any other video comment that is not on this video. I'm even fine if you decide to hate my channel but don't be hating anyone on this video, me being the exception as I won't care if you hate me or not. Just don't hate on anyone here, any other video is fine but not here.
This made me tear up to be honest.
Ever since I was around 6, I've watched Dan and he's inspired me to play games, and ive learnt a lot. It inspired me to show others about games, and play it with them.
Watching this, and seeing Dan inspire his own child to play, reminded me of how he taught me. I felt as silly as Asher was when I was younger. The fact Dan brung up my generation, and is now bringing up more and more makes me soul burn.
Thank you, dan, for being an amazing teacher for us all. A teacher in gaming.
I've been watching Dan since I was 7 years old. Seeing Dan now makes me feel old even though I'm only 14. Personally one of the most memorable icons on this platform and is probably the same for many others. So glad to see he still makes and enjoys making content to this day.
Me too
Bro same it was a nice childhood
2008-2009 i suppose ;:)?

This is the most wholesome thing ive seen all week, actually made me cry. Love your work Dan, and seeing you share your passion with Asher warms my heart. At 16 years old now, i have spent ten years thoroughly enjoying your content and i will continue to do so for many years to come
My man, you just stole the words out of my mouth. This is beautifly said! I hope you have a great day m8.
This video is probably the best and most wholesome thing on Dan's channel, and to the people who dislike this... actually there's no one disliking this. I love the connection Dan has with Asher as well, being so patient with him whilst attempting to show him how to play... it's so adorable.
:D
Dan, I just want to say that the people in the comments are speaking for all of us. The people you’ve raised online and your own son have a lot to thank you for, and this comment section is genuine with every word. Keep being you Dan and I hope Asher will understand the legacy you had on this app.
so many memories were build on this very channel. he will get to witness his father’s career build throughout all the videos, and i think that’s just bonkers (in a good way)
Yas, dan is a boss
Ammbammmba SOO CUTE WHEN HE TOLD U OFF (no offence
"Is iT yOu?" 😂😂😂 asher is the sweetest kid ever
man i love this. this man singlehandedly raised a whole generation, and now said generation is watching him raise the next. cannot wait to see both of them playing minecraft together again! maybe this could be the start of a new custom mod adventures series?
I agree
couldn't have said it better myself. truly beautiful!
It wasn’t just him…
I hope it starts a new mod series I loved the original!
Him and popularMMos raised us all. They will never leave my heart
Can’t believe how much time has passed. I remember watching Dan back in the laboratory days. Dr. Trayarus and Grim always being in the videos reviewing cool mods and doing awesome adventures. I was around 10 or 11 then and now I’m almost 19 years old. Seeing him as a father now is the craziest thing ever to me. Hope Asher grows up to be amazing and become just as successful as his father. Love you Dan!
i feel you man. i feel you
yus
Same I remember those days too watching him do all the different minecraft horror maps and everything since I was around 10-11 I’m 18 now. I haven’t watched in a while I’m so shocked to see he has a 2 yr old son he’s so adorable, they look so happy… and I feel so old😭
Same bro i really forgot about him until i saw one post had his pic and see how he had become so happy for him that he got a son
Same bro I grew up on his content
This literally made my week. Such heartwarming content. I hope Asher looks back and sees everything his Daddy did. Thank you, Dan, for entertaining me for as long as I can remember! And thank you, Asher, for making this the best video! 😊
you need to change your pfp its season 2 now
@@Aeijm.L almost
@@rishigenix lol
2:15 “Tato has consumed an entire cow”
Got me rolling 😂😂
This was actually pretty heartwarming to see Dan play games with his son, I remember watching Dan as a kid and now that he has his own son
Same here! I always watched his mod reviews when I was younger, very wholesome video!
Quite strange but still really wholesome! I’ve been watching him since i was 6 or 7 and its been an amazing journey watching him, his channel and community develop (while I was basically still developing as well lol) and I really respect him for not showing his son’s face and he’s just genuinely a great person, youtuber and dad!) Hope to see what the future gifts and its been a great ride with him throughout the years!
I also love how free of choice Dan is, he doesn’t force anything on him at all and I’m obsessed with that 😌
the fact that dan is playing minecraft with him, showing asher his interests, is so wholesome. hes such a good dad
ok
3:32 😂 “is that you?”
I used to watch his content all the time when I was little, now I'm "grown" and rembered his stuff, so I searched him up, I'm happy to see his content is still doing well, and its crazy to me he's got a kid now, I'm sure this kids gonna grow up crazy proud Dan's his dad.
Thats not a hate comment D:
So ironic that your account is called "hate account". But i agree with what you and everyone said!
Same here!
I’m very happy to see Dan as a happy parent, from going to a small channel as a teenager to being a massive channel who inspired millions and becoming an adult with a child, I can’t wait to see how Asher grows which by the way is the beautiful name , to appreciate what his dad did for us and him and hope he does well in his life
This is actually crazy to see Dan after the.. what.. 5 years I've watched him I think? It's great to see him still being a youtuber, AND a FATHER. Most youtubers probably couldn't handle that. honestly RESPECT
True!! I've been watching this guy for about 8-7 years now, the amount of effort he's able to put into being a father and his job is just amazing
fr, man raised me from ages 4-now 💀💀💀
yub is also a good youtuber who is really underrated and has a kid
Fr
asher's 4 now
I know right
Why do I keep replying to my reply lol
Yep
Damn time flies😢😢
Heart-warming that Dan has been on UA-cam gaming almost his whole life and now he wants to share that special thing with his child
i love ur pfp
why u on this channel have u seen the content u post
yes
Shut up bot
its very sad that ur a bot and copys other peoples comments
This was the most wholesome thing I’ve ever watched. I genuinely shed a tear watching Dan raise his own kid so well after raising millions of us. Thanks Dan.
I haven't watched in years, and seeing this now is great. Seeing you're raising your own family, giving your son the best possible upbringing you can is just, heartwarming.
3:34 bro got called out by his own son
Apart from that, the video was adorable
Dan is such a great dad, respecting his sons privacy and all is really good example of being a model. I can’t wait to see his son look back at these types of videos and whatever his son does i’m sure we’ll all be proud!
no processor, no videocard, and probably no RAM since you play roblox

@@kodelash funny
I love that Dan is letting us meet Asher but keeping Asher's life and face private. It's clear he isn't exploiting his son for views, yet he's still letting the community learn to love Asher as much as we've come to love Dan. Thank you for this incredible video Dan, hopefully you keep doing youtube and enjoying youtube for many more years to come!
I respect that decision a lot! One of the many reasons I will always love Dan 💕
@@kupkate04 Same :)
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen from a true content creator. It's been a long time coming, Dan. We're all super proud of you and how far you've come. Stay safe, and stay happy. I'm certain we're all looking forward to seeing what the future holds next. See you later, take care.
I'm a little late but you gotta let him explore the cars. They are my favorite thing. It's a really massive community with a lot of outlets and can be enjoyed regardless of age.
The video is so wholesome
Ikr
Really 🥺
Bien
not you!
I love how you are keeping Asher's identity hidden, it's really nice that you are giving him that chance to decide when he's older if he wants to be on UA-cam or not. Unlike those family channels where someone's whole life is broadcast to the world.
Yep
I mean these videos will prob make him not mind
respect 100 o7
I don't remember asking.
@@pakistanarmedforces7814 According to the world population studies, approximately 108 billion people have lived on this planet. Assuming the average lifespan of all these people were 25, there has been 2.7 trillion years of life, or right around 1 million trillion days of life. That’s 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 days. Not once in any of those days did anybody ask.
I love how Dan isn’t showing his kids face. He respects his privacy and doesn’t purposely shove a camera in his face. Dan is a perfect example of how to be a good parent.
Yes. I love that.
Especially as an influencer 👍
But his annoying his fans don’t seem to accept that he’ll never show his face.
@@sweatavocadosauce4910 Well, he might show his face, ONLY IF Asher wants to.
@@ZombieSler123 Well Asher is only 2 so he won’t be showing it anytime soon.
7:56 DID I HEAR ASHER SAID “oh look! There you are.”
I admire how he hides Asher's face. Not a lot of celebrities/famous people do that. I love how Dan put so much thought into protecting his son.
I agree
Gotta agree with ya

Fr tho
He is short
Watching Dan as a dad now truly hits me the fact that time indeed flies. So happy that I have now watched the relationship between Dan and Asher which is so heartwarming.
ikr so wholesome❤
Agreed
Also agreed, plus I'm very happy to see his channel grow so big I've been watching his video's for a long long time
I’ve been watching Dan since I was 9 years old. I’m now 19, almost in my 20’s. I grew up watching this man and to now see him teach his son to play games I grew up watching Dan play is so emotional to me. But I also feel so old 😂
W comment
Same, been watching him since I was 7 and now I'm almost 17
Just realized I've been watching Dan for 8 years...
I watch Dan's video since i was 8 years old

This is so wholesome ❤❤
Asher is so intelligent for his age as proven in this video that his speech is so advanced for age 2 😊❤😊❤
Love you Dan I've been watching you for a number of years and your videos, both new and old, still bring a smile to my face on the most difficult of days 💙
Thankyou dan for an awesome early childhood ❤️
I’m crying, I love how much of a good dad Dan is to his kid, while simultaneously being discreet about his private life and his kids privacy
Yes.
I’m not sure I agree with him playing video games so early in life because he won’t want to stop and he has everything at his disposal to do whatever he wants and it could be difficult for him to get off it.
@@GeekMan237 good thing he’s not your kid
@@mallorykelm9873 he is right though, giving video games to young kids so early can cause a bad habit, once u take the games off them, they cry and cry and cry.
@@mallorykelm9873 as long as that kid has a limit
I love how Dan connects his son with us, fans, and still manages to keep him private, he is really a great dad :)
It’s crazy to think that this guy raised an entire generation myself included, and now he’s raising an entire child and he’s doing a really good job too. Much Love to you Dan your son and your wife
Ya
father of two now man he’s raising a second generation 😂
It’s insane. I’m so happy for him. I’ve been with Dan on his journey never once have I missed one of his videos.
i used to always watch his videos with my brother
@@TacoDestiny_ welcome to the adventurers guild.
just hearing Asher telling Dan off is funny 😂 4:42 (I laughed so hard 😂)
I haven’t watched Dan in ages! And coming back to his channel makes me smile. Showing how responsible he is with Asher is amazing. He’s such a good dad.
Fr! I came back and I didn’t even know he had a son. Last time I watched him they were talking about having kids but never got through with it. It’s amazing seeing how much can change in a short amount of time.
its the same for me! i hope to be as good with kids as dan is one day
same
Me too
Yeah he’s always there to put a smile in my face too
Dan really has come far, I remember being 7 watching him and the Dr playing mods... They really were my memories, and now he's become a father, and a very good one at that. I hope Asher grows up to appreciate his old man
You've come so far Dan.
Far from your minecraft horror map days. Wishing you and your family all the best. Stay safe

So amazing dan. This is a real trip down the memories for me.
The fact that dan hasn’t showed Asher’s face shows how much he values his personal privacy exposure. Most families that are on yt immediately upload a video about their new baby or somethin. This just deserves high respect, for all his hard work I hope Asher turns out great older when he looks at all of dan’s work. I remeber watching Dan in 2014 all the way to 2019 and then I stopped after that but his growth never stopped. Your content is something I will truly remember for my entire life. Thanks for everything dan
Nostalgia
He probably had to redo some takes and cut out a lot of stuff for the sake of his privacy, even if it ended up costing him a lot of time. Good Dad.
bout saythe same thing but im glad u said it instead
hands down probably my favorite video Dan has made recently. possibly ever, although his old lab videos have a lot of nostalgia and are hard to beat... either way, i loved this, Asher is amazing and i hope one day he'll grow up and see what an awesome father he has
This is so wholesome. He's so adorable, and really smart for a 2 year old. You've done an amazing job as a father, Dan.
I agree
Yea my guy can speak pretty well for a 2 year old
@@rezra7237 Ikr, my brother can only speak 1 word at a time and he's born in the same month and year, and here I thought I did a good job. Dan did a really good job
I love how Asher try’s to help by grabbing the table😂❤ 6:30
Bro.. After years of watching Dan play a plethora of games and doing many other activities which helped me learn English at a young age I brainstormed a lot to pick which video is his best and I have to admit that THIS video was the best video he has ever made. Dan used to be a guy living in a small space in England, doing Minecraft modded videos and just giving us a great way to kill some time. And now, he’s a father of this hilarious innocent boy named Asher. I hope when Asher grows up looks back at who his father was and what he did. He might not follow in his footsteps however I’m sure he’d make a great man in the future.
You just typed exactly what I was thinking-wow
JUST YES
i hope asher takes dans channel once hes old enough just imagine how an AshTDM vid would be. wow
Man I remember when this cute little guy was just born 2 years back, seeing him speaking and full of life, able to walk is just so heartwarming and makes me very hopeful for your son Dan. You raised Gen Z and now we get to watch you raise the next generation including your own son! Bravo, Dan! - A fan since 2013 :)

This is honestly so wholesome. The fact that he spends time with his family and is community is incredible. Mad props to you.
From entertaining lots of kids on UA-cam to raising his own, Dan has come a long way!!!
Growing up watching Dan and now seeing him entertain his son is so cool. Came back to this channel years later and still love the content.
I haven’t watched the channel in a couple years, but Dan was my entire childhood. It’s amazed me seeing how much he’s grown since I last watched his videos, and it’s brought me to literal tears. We love you Dan

Facts!
Same
I agree to everything that was said there.
your channel was made in 2020
The nostalgia that Dan brings back, is just life changing. The time that I met Dan at the 2017 Sydney Luna Park show in October, when he ran down the isle at the beginning and high fived my hand... from that point on, that was the best moment of my life. Truly an icon that basically founded my childhood. ❤
