It’s the run everyone still talks about.

Back in 2018, Sean Toomey-Stout had a kickoff bounce off his hands — one of the few times the Coupeville High School four-year, two-way starter ever juggled a live ball.

Not that it mattered, as “The Torpedo” snatched the ball up, then took it to the house while escorted for 95 yards by a wayward deer which had entered the playing field right as the kick descended from the clouds.

At the time, multiple videos of the run cropped up across the internet, from local sites to international ones, and Maya’s twin brother became a viral sensation.

Now, as Sean prepares for another season of college football at the University of Washington, continuing to beat the odds as a walk-on player getting significant playing time, the video is still never far away.

The latest mention comes to us from Dan Raley, who covers the Huskies for Sports Illustrated:

The legend continues to grow.

After getting tons of views on Facebook and YouTube for his Deer Whisperer video, CHS grad Dalton Martin has taken the next step, and it’s potentially a huge one.

His video — which shows the former Wolf sharing a leafy lunch with a very calm forest creature — can now be found on EllenTube, a video-sharing site that’s part of Ellen DeGeneres‘ vast empire.

Martin has picked up another 3,000+ views thanks to the site, and while that doesn’t quite put him in “Kendall Jenner quits Instagram” territory yet (there are close to 800,000 much dumber people now…), it’s a step.

Now, all he needs is the big lady herself to notice, and Dalton could be on his way to being the next “Damn, Daniel.”

In a just world, this video goes viral.

Dalton Martin, who graduated from Coupeville High School last month, after capping a stellar track career by becoming the first Wolf ever to win three throwing medals at one state meet, is comfortable on camera.

In the school’s annual torch-passing video, he took the lead role in a remake of “Hot Rod” and nailed it. Andy Samberg, who?

But this is bigger, better, badder and with far more deer, all in one incredible seven-second clip.

Enjoy, then spread the word.

Help Dalton become the next Damn Daniel.
