I thought this only happened in films .....

Post by Filonian »

This video was made in the Antwerp , Belgium Central (Train) Station on March 23, 2009, with no warning to the passengers passing through the station. At 8:00 am a recording of Julie Andrews singing 'Do, Re, Mi' begins to play on the public address system. As the bemused passengers watch in amazement, some 200 dancers begin to appear from the crowd and station entrances.
They created this amazing stunt with just two rehearsals!
Enjoy!

Marvellous and thoroughly enjoyable :welldone:

They say that Belgium is boring....I lived there for a time and it's a very surprising place ;-)

Many thanks for that Graham :thumbsup:

Kind of defeats the object of a flash mob if it's rehearsed. That's why I could never understand that mobile phone advert that has all of the people dancing together; that's not really the point of it all.
