Default The most amazing dancing I've ever seen

Screw Dancing With the Stars. If you want to see the real thing, watch this. Watch for the sequences featuring the African-American dancers and you tell me that's not some serious soft shoe. If any of them had screwed up that choreography, someone would have ended up in the hospital.

And then consider that if any of those dancers are still alive today, they're in their 90's at minimum. Just mindblowing. I watched this video with my mouth hanging open.

I would also like to suggest So you think you can dance, and Randy Jackson presents America's Best Dance Crew..some very amazing dancing on those shows.

I wish I could look at videos on this, so I don't know what kind of dance you were looking at. If it was the Lindy Hop, I totally understand your amazement. If you've never seen that, google it.

I highly recommend you watch the movie Tap if you want to see the last performences of most of the old greats.

I showed this video to my boyfriend, only to learn that he knows how to do the jitterbug. I was forced to jitterbug with him. He assures me that had he not just gotten his nipples pierced, he would have flipped me -- but can't take that chance right now, considering the piercings.

I'm not sure how I feel about this.
