(I was distracted though by how his right arm seemed a little different than his left. As I was staring at his identical dance the entire time, that disturbed me. I wanted symmetry. And why did he stop dancing briefly somewhere overseas?)
Grace, darling, you're guidance counselor slip is showing! You're worried the poor boy might have a handicap of some sort. You're also over thinking it, just enjoy!

I actually liked his goofy dance. It showed that he had a great deal of self-confidence. How many of us could/would put ourselves out there like that and subject ourselves to public ridicule in multiple countries no less. I know I wouldn't.

I also have (more or less) one dance in me, and I do it when I feel like dancing. I got kicked out of classical ballet school when I was six, and ditched cotillion when I was a teenager, and no one ever asked me to dance at any of the dances anyway .... so why the hell would it matter?

But, I love that video because, I love seeing the locals getting involved. It's just so much fun to watch them getting into the act, and having a good time (especially those lovely Indian temple dancers).

I think (what it says to me anyway is) that, no matter what country you're are from, there are people who can put differences aside and just cut loose and DANCE!

(If you do read his blog, he was actually arrested for trying to dance at the Parthenon ... silly, I know, but there you have it. He could dance at the Korean Demilitarized Zone, but not at the Parthenon.)
I agree completely! Thanks so much for sharing it!
