Seriously, are you one of the, like, 2 people in the world who haven't seen this video yet?

The series of videos that have this guy named Matt doing a dance are the worlds most watched internet videos.  This one I am posting has over 21 million views on YouTube.   I think they are awesome!

So the story goes like this:  This guy quits his job and starts traveling.  As sort of a memento to the places he visits, he would do this lame little dance.  Well, he posted on YouTube and became an overnight Viral hit, when a gum company saw it and asked him to make one for them.  He said sure, but I don't have any more money to travel.  So the gum company hired him, paid for all of his travels, and the result is what you see up there.

Recently, at a technology convention, Matt talked about how there are many YouTube "geniuses" who thought it was all fake and photoshopped.  He went on to pretend it all was a hoax, saying it was all photoshopped and the dancers were an army of robots, the zero gravity was created in hollowed-out Boeing underwater, and the budget was in the tens of millions.  LOL!  Well, some people couldn't take the joke, and it even made it into the news that the internet sensation was a "hoax."

If you youtube Matt hoax was a hoax, you'll find the whole story, its really pretty funny.  Cliffs Notes Version:  It was all real!  He received emails from all over the world, people asking things like "why didn't you come to my town," and his simple reply would be, "We're coming now, do you want to dance to?"  That's why in the early ones (2005 etc) it was just Matt, but I like this latest one (2008) with all the people.

Anyways, the video made me feel good, so I thought I'd post to remember.  Enjoy!
