I’ve seen excellent robotic-type dancing, but this guy is absolutely in a different league. I’ve never seen anything remotely as good as this, ever.

(Apologies if this has been posted before; I was just reminded of it and felt I had to share.)

That was awesome - there’s points during his dancing where you’re sure that the human body can’t physically DO that! :eek:

I tried to watch this a couple of days ago while I was at work, but my iPad and the network I was on hated loading the video, and I got tired of it stopping every 15 seconds. Of course, I forgot about it until this afternoon when I was finally at home. I’m glad I remembered to look for this thread.

The guy is freaking amazing. I particularly like the slow-motion parts. He really nails it. I’d like to see him walking down a street with other people and just bust into slow-mo midstride, while everyone else just kept walking. It would be a freaky matrix moment for sure.

Thanks for linking the vid, **jjimm**.

The guy is good but still doesn’t come near [Mr. Fantastic](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLDekf0nLEQ) in my book.

[Earl Snake-Hips Tucker](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7U4ww-MmAY4) was pretty good back in the day. But, of course I’m a little biased.

I just spent most of the last hour watching Mr. Muraine, and I gotta say: aye, this guy is in a league of his own. Even the other guy from the dance show, Phillip Chbeeb, doesn’t come close to equaling the moves that Mr. Fantastic displays.

This is well known, but if you haven’t seen it, you might enjoy [David Elsewhere](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAyTK6jF5o8). In the parlance of our times, I believe he is officially classified as “sick”.

Not as amazing as the first video but still quite good. Some guy in a club doing what is apparently called [liquid dancing](http://youtu.be/xzcTh-w2lkw) in 1999.
