Nearly 50% of men (but only 20% of women) surveyed were "confident" they could land a plane, without training. If you've daydreamed hero scenarios, if you love (or loathe) travel, or if you've ever spent time with a man before, then don't miss Dan Boerman's brand-new, high-energy stand-up show. Direct from touring New Zealand, and featured on Comedy Central UK and BBC, this is a show like nothing you've seen before. 'A hero' (Jimmy Carr, this is a real quote). 2025 Malcolm Hardee 'Cunning Stunt' award nominee.

About Dan Boerman

Dan Boerman's brand-new stand-up show takes its premise from a striking survey finding: nearly 50% of men, but only 20% of women, were confident they could land a plane without training. If you've ever daydreamed hero scenarios, love or loathe travel, or have simply spent time with a man before, this high-energy hour is for you. Boerman arrives direct from touring New Zealand, bringing sharp observational comedy and physical comedy energy to Slice 4 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

Why see this show?

A high-energy stand-up rooted in a genuinely baffling statistic about male overconfidence. Boerman's premise is instantly relatable and the show promises sharp, lively comedy for anyone who has ever encountered an overconfident stranger.
