[edit] Daniel Dancer
Doesn't seem notable, sounds like nonsense to me. I tried looking for related context on Google and could not find anything related to it. Wackymacs 14:43, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

- comment Certainly smells like a hoax. The original author, User:Skysmith, seems very active in creating/editing biographies of unusual people. I'll put a note on his talk page asking for a verifiable source. Pete.Hurd 21:34, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: Greetings. Sources for Daniel Dancer are definitely lacking. I got my info from a Reader's Digest book "Facts & Fallacies" (around 1988) but that does seem to be the only reference. In hindsight, I noticed that some of the articles in that book have at least dubious details, so I've begun to have second thoughts. If this one really remains the only reference, maybe this can be relegated to the category of "fallacies" (or "legends"). Unfortunately, I cannot travel to London to check. - Skysmith 11:04, 12 November 2005 (UTC)
