Dance with Matt

Credit: Matt Harding & Melissa Nixon

Thanks to Matt and Melissa! You have addded one more smile to the world!

Where the Hell is Matt? (2008) from Matthew Harding on Vimeo.





Explanation: What are these humans doing? Dancing. Many humans on Earth exhibit periods of happiness, and one method of displaying happiness is dancing. Happiness and dancing transcend political boundaries and occur in practically every human society. Above, Matt Harding traveled through many nations on Earth, started dancing, and filmed the result. The video is perhaps a dramatic example that humans from all over planet Earth feel a common bond as part of a single species. Happiness is frequently contagious -- few people are able to watch the above video without smiling.

Thanks Roo for showing me this and making me smile today!

I found this guy a little while back, and there's an interview with him that is very entertaining he explains where the idea to dance badly in many countries came from and what he learned from it. One of the first things he says is that "the world is not as dangerous a place as is its made out to be (on tv)" nor is it so expensive.

He also has another video of outtakes that's just as entertaining as well. You'd be surprised of the countries and places that didn't get into "dancing"
