See Matt Dance around the world - again!

June 23rd 2008 03:25
The original "Dancing by Matt Harding" video was incredible. Matt Harding traveled all around the world, dancing like a lunatic in every country he found. It's a triumphant example of the traveler's spirit, the dedication to non-stop voyaging. An anonymous commenter points out that this is his third video...

Does he get tired? Does he run out of money?

Apparently not:



You'll notice, of course, that Matt has a lot of excited friends to join him in his dancing video, which makes him some sort of Internet ambassador. Could he bring peace to the Middle East?

Maybe not, but the kids in the video are having a great time. How do kids dance like that? Like they're not sure if there'll be a tomorrow so they flail frantically up and down, indifferent to their style or rhythm. At some point, the rest of us learned to try and look good, and, in the process, we lost that unadulterated joy in movement.

Australians will be pleased to see several sites around this fine country in the video. Canadians will be less pleased to see Montreal, rainy and miserable. That doesn't make me want to go back.

Here's to you, Matt - you're indefatigable and always moving, which is incredible. Looking forward to your third "Dancing with Matt" video, though I wonder if you're running out of places to go?

I don't know either of these Matts, Louie. Does your friend have a video?

This was Matt's THIRD video, not his second. His first video was in 2005, his second in 2006, both of which showed him dancing (almost always alone) in various exotic and beautiful places. The "original" one you loved was probably his second video (10 million views, vs. 2 million for the first film).

Also, your attempted link to one of his earlier videos instead links to Michael Jackson doing a Fred Astaire routine. Both are far better dancers than Matt, but the video is nowhere near as interesting.
