Dancing Around the world!

Have you seen this yet? Apparently this guy is becoming a huge phenomenon. He started off just goofing around taking this video of himself doing a crazy dance anytime he travelled to a new place. He strung it together and threw it on the net. Then he was approached by the Stride Gum company, and now they are paying for him to travel around the world and dance with people. Now he's being interviewed and in magazines and everything. He has a website at www.wherethehellismatt.com. I checked it out and am convinced it's all real. I was skeptical while watching the video. But dang, it's pretty cool! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlfKdbWwruY Tell me what you think.

Some of those look real and some of them do not. I think it is neat that Stride Gum is paying for him to travel around the world like that.

That's what I thought as well. One of the shots looked so fake, that I assumed they must have all been pretty fake. But after reading his website, I'm convinced none of them are fake. He actually had a journal log where a TV company had made him dance in front of a green screen and then they shot footage on it so it looked like he was dancing on the moon, and some other things. In his journal he said how "hokey" it felt, and he really didn't like the green screen. So I'm pretty convinced it's all real.

This guy came to Trinidad once from Germany who was travelling around the world playing the piano for days on end without stopping. I personally would not sit and listen to him two or three days but he went and stayed at the Hilton Hotel in Port of Spain, Trinidad and played the piano for about three days without stopping.
