Man recreates Michael Jackson's iconic moonwalk with the shadow of his hands
- 11 months ago
Here's proof that you don't always have to go all out to entertain people. Sometimes, it's the simple things that draw the widest smiles.
Surfacing from Calatagan, the Philippines, this amusing video features Philip Jose Galit paying tribute to the King of Pop, Michael Jackson... with nothing but his hands.
But how is the aforementioned statement even possible? Well, the filmer just happens to be a proficient shadow dancer who knows a thing or two about creating different shapes and patterns with his hands.
He uses the fingers of one hand to perform a slick moonwalk and reserves the other for representing MJ's signature hat and hair he had when he performed "Billie Jean" on Motown 25.
"When I was a young kid, we didn't have electricity in our house, so I learned to make hand shadows to entertain myself at night," Philip told WooGlobe.
