  Videos of people dancing "the swing"

So I don't want this topic to be cruel or making fun of anyone, but I wanted everyone to share any videos they come across online of people that dance to swing music, but what the're doing is something makes you wonder where they heck they learned to dance like they do . . . (i.e. unique…

Yikes, I didn't even notice that before. I also love how halfway through, their bounces are off. How is it that we can improvise this on the spot and it rocks, and they choreograph it and it's still wrong?

Hey, this one actually isn't bad. Sure, they aren't the best dancers ever, but they are actually doing lindy hop and doing stuff that you'd see on the dance floor of a standard lindy dance.

Just cause they are at AM doesn't automatically mean they suck (just usually, haha)

I'm guessing neither have a good enough connection that would enable him to lead her back.

THIS is a Fail full of WIN! "Crazy Swing Dancing" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQPlTFMqyu0

They know that they're shooting this and are ironically calling themselves awesome but it's really their "basic" that makes me chuckle, but I keep wondering the whole time if that creeky tree/sign won't just fall and kill them already. And the d00d literally says "durrrrr"

y i no haz signature? Come on people, make with the funny.

Ok, I'm not all up for being an ass about a swing club in nowheresville doing a little self-promotion. And that "janitor" is probably just a member of the club cleaning the floor, so there's no need for that snark.

ON THE OTHER HAND: Did anyone watch to the end? "NO EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED ANY OF ARE MEMBERS ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO TEACH"

Now that is comedy. --R

Even more amusing is that clip was from the 2nd half of the talent show (after their "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" performance posted earlier). So they came back to demonstrate extra talent.... and got critiqued favorably by the panel of judges at the end!

So maybe there's hope for another round next year!

This is such an odd topic.

I get it and appreciate it but I also know that at differant times I thought I was cool enough to capture on film and now I find them to be comedy. I have some now that I think are cool but two years from now will bang my head and ask why god why did this make it to the internet.

I am greatfull that I have not appeared on here yet and sincerly thank the people that have managed to overlook my tresspasses. ;-)

cheers and merry Christmas

I kept waiting for the first guy to do something other than run under her arm. Oh wait, there's an arm slide.

Yikes. Well they must have some talent if they got this far without any lessons at all. Just think what a few lessons would do! I'm sure there are dance teachers in the Chicago area....

New commercial for New Idea magazine in Australia. It's quite awful. I first saw it sitting on the couch at Swing Camp Oz on the off day at the surf club.

I especially like the part where he just humps her. Charming.

Not only is he wearing a cheap polyester suit but it's a cheap polyester suit that doesn't fit! I wonder what Maisie thinks.

"The Swing" thread has officially reached a new high (or low depending on your point of view).

Check out this video by Angel Taylor: "Like You Do"

I see lots of yanking arms, some girls "leading", the pretzel, and even the "put our arms behind our head and slide away from each other" move.

All beautifully shot, but still...

I'm much more offended by the use of autotune on the singer than casual unpolished bopping around swing dancing.
