Daniel also went on to mention his parents having sex. The camera was panned toward his mother who was sitting in the audience. His mom looked confused after listening to him. He said, “It's incredible. My mom met my dad, they had sex, it's amazing. Do you know what I'm saying? I'm here, do you know what I mean? I'm so happy to be alive, so I'm going to celebrate that tonight.”
