I was gonna ask if anyone knew what that dance really was. Someone posted another video earlier that was labeled "lindy hop" that had that same sharp-kick thing going on. I wonder where and by whom that's being taught as lindy hop and how the confusion began in the first place. It doesn't look anything like lindy hop.
This is a spam video, but I thought it was funny they used the following tags:

I was trying to decide whether or not this qualified as "the swing" since it is technically Lindy Hop.

And they it says they are dance instructors...
I wasn't such a great dancer when I started teaching, but I didn't go posting clips of myself on the internet.

Ah the wonders of YouTube cross-reference links...
Did you know there's evidently a show called "Baby Ballroom" that is dedicated to preteens do a televised ballroom comp? Sounds like some perverts' idea. Can't wait for the US import version...
Well, here's a couple doing a jitterbug to "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go"....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESTyfaIDkGc

That was actually pretty good. I mean, not good good, but really good for beginners. I didn't see any lindy hop, though, just Charleston and misunderstood air steps.

This thread is for mocking clips that are so undeniably bad (though the people think they're awesome) that it requires their own thread ;) Like this one.
Do you know how awkward it is to have a political argument with a naked man?

Oh man. I had to stop watching about half way through. Can we also mock that guy for wearing a shirt that's way too small and has horizontal stripes (not so flattering on those who carry their extra weight in the middle) and way too tight jeans?

The Belt Flip is a whole realm of comedy into and of itself. I'm suprised more folks don't lose their pants doing it.

Are they really performing or just marking the choreography? Even a corpse wouldn't be that stiff.

That pretty much made the movie.
Alexander in the video above may not have been much of a leader, but he had a great view from his height.

I'll forgive the cross cultural confusion. But, given who they are and what they're dancing to, all hail the Swing Study - Grupo de Dan a Rafael Oliveira
