YouTube Wonder
That fateful performance has already been viewed over a million times on YouTube. Now U.S. breakfast show Today has invited him to travel Stateside as a guest. This is the same move that Britain’s Got Talent contestant Susan Boyle made at the height of her fame.

Besides his brilliant talent Danyl’s one teacher that’s setting a good example for his students. He says he’s proud to show his aspiring-entertainer students, who range in age from four to 17, that they can reach for the stars and succeed.
