Thanks Alan! I almost never do my act silent anymore. I use to do it on television in countries where I don't speak the language but I always missed being able to tease and joke with them. Now I rather like seeing the skill and the bubbles stand alone.
That was a really good show. They filmed at San Francisco State University in 1986 when we held the first ever New Vaudeville Festival. I had a lot of friends playing that event and several others that I met there and have been friends since.
I watched the young Tom Noddy a few hours ago. Seeing him like this now, i have tears in my eyes because 1. He still has the same beard and haircut 2. He's still blowing bubbles 3. He's smiling through it. He's won. This is what success looks like.
I have to wonder what 'smoke' he is using, as it has to have the 'weight' and 'density' of what he is used to creating and performing with. I guess he could answer it, but...makes you think how integral that composition of whatever tobacco he smokes has close aspects.
He use to smoke only when he practiced then he needed a bubble or two after every meal. (Or something like that, it was one of his jokes in another video of his :D)
@@usernameinvalid8 Vaporizers. Looks like he may be using vaporizers smoke. Nothing wrong there. Understandable, the use of tobacco products on TV began to become restricted into the 90's.
@@BabbleOn777 I was just quoting a joke. In another video he has up on UA-cam from when he was younger. I understand hes using a vapor device of some sort
Tom Noddy- The Original BubbleSmith. His "Bubble Cube" trick is legendary. He's extremely witty too. Very talented to make a career with bubbles. Takes a bit of finesse no doubt.
He used to smoke to fill the bubbles with the smoke from the cigarrete which is a gas and something that does makes smoke when it comes from the land down under lol.
I just watched one of Tom's videos from when he was younger doing a similar act with jokes. It's so cute seeing him do the same act with a different flair as he ages. He seemed like a cool dude before, now he seems so cute and sweet :) He still has the same hairstyle and mustache. Now that's a man who knows himself and who he wants to be. Thank you Tom for the lovely entertainment!
Seeing the other video when he was younger and telling jokes was nice.. Now seeing this video of his... She changes you and the experience we have.. Still great to see people still happy doing what they love to do you know... Even if they're tired.
Tom- i just by accident found your amazing talent today at 34 years old. I'm a Christian man that loves the lord Jesus Christ IMMENSELY and when i see that smile of yours it reminds me of how beautiful life can be. Im a former drug addict and have had my lows, but i just really wanted you to know how cool you are brother. Keep smiling man!! God bless your brother and i hope you know the lord!
Keep pressing into to the King my brother. Heart mind and soul! Surely he comes quickly and his reward is with him!(though just to know him is a great reward) God be with you and his will reign in your life, no matter how hard it may be, it always works for our best!
@@ericb6238 there's no such person. just a mythical figure used as a way of controlling masses of people. the fact grown adults still believe this shit is baffling
@@sabretooth5404 oh sabre tooth. What's truly baffling to us though is how upset people such as yourself get bc others believe in different things than you. We live in a very spiritual supernatural world my friend, Hopefully one day you can learn to know what we already do.
@@tombourne7184 what you already do? you mean what you got from a book written 1000 years after the main protagonist has died. yeah cos that's believable. wha ts truely baffling is how gullible grown adults are.
awesome although i like it better with his commentary. just found him today. amazing to see him perfect his art during the aging and non smoking process. the best one was him on carson imo
I saw the show “Opium” in Vegas last week. There was an awesome bubble guy in that and he paid tribute to you. I was so impressed I had to look you up. Incredible. Thanks.
I just saw the Johnny Carson clip of Tom last night, and he looks exactly the same, except a little older (like we all do!) but still seems to be just as cool as before!
a video of him when he was young popped on my feed a few days ago and now this was here. it’s surreal to see him old, especially when he looks exactly the same
Just googled that smoke-device and apparently it's a mini "fog machine" of the same type that's used in theaters and concerts to make a fog effect on stage but a smaller version. The fog is water vapor and glycol which I still don't understand but who am I? Mr Wizard?
Wow you can really see his skills evolution after so many years. He really pushed himself to break through the limits of this capturing art. Good Job 😒😕
Holy crap man that is really cool! I would most definitely pay to see that! Hell my 20 month old daughter has the attention span of a flea and she sat n watched the hole video and was laughing. Do u ever perform in Michigan?
UA-cam just sent me here it popped up on my search thing I know UA-cam is doing that for a lot of people that's what they were saying on the bubble magic\ tom video!

Tom Noddy Youre amazing tom
No one believes that you're actually him lol.
Tom Noddy
Tom, I first witnessed your bubble-fu back in the 80's on a show called The New Vaudvillians. Bravo sir, and thank you!
That was a really good show. They filmed at San Francisco State University in 1986 when we held the first ever New Vaudeville Festival. I had a lot of friends playing that event and several others that I met there and have been friends since.
I’m glad that he quit smoking
yeah its great
I was about to say, I'm glad he found a way to do the smoke tricks without actually having to smoke.
Did he quit smoking? I think he does it this way because people are not allowed to smoke on tv anymore.
Me too :)
Flakey 12 so true
I watched the young Tom Noddy a few hours ago.
Seeing him like this now, i have tears in my eyes because
1. He still has the same beard and haircut
2. He's still blowing bubbles
3. He's smiling through it.
He's won. This is what success looks like.
He has also quit smoking
i was just about to say that
Broi just did the same thing today
Yeah same. So happy to see someone after 37 years doing the same thing.
After 37 years my man still in buisness. This is so wholesome
So he quit smoking cigarettes..super dope still!

Came here from a recommended video from 1983. This guy looks more like a tenured professor than ever Jesus Christ.
I came from that video
Professor of Bubble Sciences.
Also came from that video, and the dude quit smoking haha
Looks like Albert Einstein
@@mitchellfite879 Same. Good to still see hes happy doing it I guess... Bless the man

He changed the world
He looks exactly like a white Neil Degrasse Tyson I love it
omfg he does. never noticed that til I read you comment, well spotted
Johannes Koechling white science man
Well...nope, maybe some small features, but in general he does not.
He reminds me of Ron Jeremy 😏
How lol? He doesnt look anything like Neil degrass Tyson..
*If Bob Ross were into bubbles, this would be it.*
I've never actually watched Bob Ross on purpose. I seek out Tom Noddy performances though. I love it every time I see it.
He looks happy doing what he's doing
3:47 is the most wholesome, childlike smile ever :)
If it makes viewers happy, it makes him happy, as it is with any artist.
It’s good innocent fun. God bless this man and his entertainment for ys
I just watched the 1980s version of this! You still have a smile on your face!
when he pulled the lightbulb from his pocket i just imagined him saying "im the bubble guy I make the rules" :)
Dope lol
This warms my heart.He does it with such love. It feels like Bub(ble) Ross
im glad he found a way to quit smoking!
What is that thing....? Vape?
He used to smoke to fill the bubbles with the smoke from the cigarrete which is a gas and something that does makes smoke when it comes from the land down under lol.
He's no magician! He's a master of water surface tension!
The Ultimate Waterbender!

Just saw the same video and now here I am
Its so innocent, originel and fun to watch. I hope they pay him extra!
Boy he looks great in this video! What a legend :)
He’s the bubble guy he makes all the bubble rules

Saw a video of Tom on Johnny Carson. I was transfixed. Really excellent performance
TOM NODDY HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE MASTER OF BUBBLES AND A TENDER SENSE OF HUMOR!!! LONG LIVE TOM!!!!!!!!!! 11/10
Awesome to to see your enthusiasm after all these years! Seriously soul soothing
i wish i loved something as much as he loves bubbles
Best act I've seen since I can remember ! That carousel of bubbles spinning around inside the chain of bubbles was spectacular.
Tom- i just by accident found your amazing talent today at 34 years old.

tom noody the orginator of this type of art!!! and still the master
i like how happy he looks while doing this
That guy has made a career of mastering bubbles. I love it
Everybody: You can't make a carrier blowing bubbles.
Tom: Hold my beer bubbles.
I don’t know making an aircraft carrier out of bubbles seems pretty hard
Bubbles cant hold airplanes though! You silly Darth you!
@@gabrieldnchf2822 this man has more tricks up his sleeve I guess.
Legend has it, he’s been doing this act for 50 years now
His smile when people clapp 👌👌👌😊😊
What a beautiful performance. Funny in the purest form, thankyou kindly for sharing
Just watched him on the Johnny Carson show 1982...man he was younger
This guy is great man I like him
oh wow, so this is what 3 decades does to you. HES STILL KICKING IT 😎👌
I like the younger versions where the jokes are added made it extra entertaining. Very impressive though and relaxing to watch.
It's a shame cigarettes stole his voice.
@@vwnut13 Is that true? That sucks in that case
@@callumcowan7047 that's not true at all . He quit smoking years ago. Wow internet filled with lies
I guess spongebob’s lessons paid off.
Here I was thinking 30 years of smoking took your voice 😭
Its ok love
He looks so passionate doing what he does........
I saw Tom in Santa Cruz back in 1982. He was great back then and is as good now. Back then we burned one after the show. Wish he was here now.
awesome although i like it better with his commentary. just found him today. amazing to see him perfect his art during the aging and non smoking process. the best one was him on carson imo
6:19 That's the grooviest laugh ever
I saw the show “Opium” in Vegas last week. There was an awesome bubble guy in that and he paid tribute to you. I was so impressed I had to look you up. Incredible. Thanks.
It is a very rare act that still captivates you after over 30 hearts - Still terrific!
according to me the best bubleman of the world !!!
The caterpillar looks best when every other bubble has smoke
I just saw the Johnny Carson clip of Tom last night, and he looks exactly the same, except a little older (like we all do!) but still seems to be just as cool as before!
Imagine being 6 yrs old in the back yard blowing bubbles. Knowing you have found your career !
Love this guy. All these years later.
Wow without the jokes you can really see how tallented and sweet he actually is ☺️👌👍
You're the man
so many try to mimic him but none are like Noddy. im loving his videos :)
YOU ARE THE COOLEST GUY I'VE EVER SEEN OMG
This dude just looks happy.
a video of him when he was young popped on my feed a few days ago and now this was here. it’s surreal to see him old, especially when he looks exactly the same
The way he smile make my heart so warm
That guy is super entertaining! :)
Still The man, after all these years!
0 clue why this was recommended to me but glad it was, that was so cool!
He aged like wine.
Your ass aged like omelette du fromage
I always enjoy watching him perform
Man I saw a clip of this guy on Carson's, very funny guy and very nice tricks!!
I just watched this guy yesterday, he got old quick.
Same here 😂
I remember seeing you on a Carson tape my mom had when I was a kid. Same act, but in no way is that bad.
Just googled that smoke-device and apparently it's a mini "fog machine" of the same type that's used in theaters and concerts to make a fog effect on stage but a smaller version. The fog is water vapor and glycol which I still don't understand but who am I? Mr Wizard?
He is the bubble man and he makes all of the rules
Wow you can really see his skills evolution after so many years. He really pushed himself to break through the limits of this capturing art. Good Job 😒😕
I remember Tom from On the Road with Charles Kuralt. Still tickles my funny bone! Thank you so much for what you do!
Tom Noddy the OG G.O.A.T
Because I am “The Bubble Man”. Yes sir, you are!
Holy crap man that is really cool! I would most definitely pay to see that! Hell my 20 month old daughter has the attention span of a flea and she sat n watched the hole video and was laughing. Do u ever perform in Michigan?
awesome hes still doing this bubble magic. his per=formance on JOHNNY CARSON was AWESOME
Your going viral. Very awesome magic !
What makes me happiest about this video the most is that he stopped smoking. 🥰
Wholesome
I watch two videos and seen this guy's entire life he was a kid in the first one and now he's an old man
Love this man
old is gold .... from india
He looks like Einstein but He do things the opposite.
A *mad scientist of Bubbles*
So glad to see you quit the cigarettes Tom. Class act.
It's definitely thinking outside the box.
Bravo from texas
UA-cam just sent me here it popped up on my search thing I know UA-cam is doing that for a lot of people that's what they were saying on the bubble magic\ tom video!
I would live to take my kids to see this
I bet this guy would be really good at glass blowing
This was relaxing
He still performs, after all these years!
🤭
I love this!!!
This guy is the bob ross of bubbles
I remember seeing him on Johnny Carson back in the day. 🤔😀👍
Best act ever.
He was bad ass smoking 🚬. Now he’s cool with that machine 🎥
I thought the “bubble entertainment” phrase referred to talk show entertainment in general, where, to my knowledge, this act first appeared.
He was on That's Incredible just prior to Carson, if memory serves me. Could be wrong, though, since it has been 37 years. lol
Who makes all the bubble rules? The Bubble Man does.
I like the music!
Absolute legend
Feels like he looks at those bubbles as if they're his children...
memsybabe but he destroys the bubbles...
@@superman2957 😄😊
He also blows them...
