Prisoners Dance (Philippines)

Image
Thriller  is a  viral video  featuring the  CPDRC Dancing Inmates  of a high-security  penitentiary . In 2007, the inmates of  Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center  (CPDRC), a maximum security prison in  Cebu , the Philippines , imitated the zombie dance featured in  the music video  of  Michael Jackson 's " Thriller ". The footage, uploaded onto  video-sharing  website  YouTube , became a viral video. The idea behind the dance came from the prison's chief, Byron F. Garcia. Garcia first conceived the idea of exercising as an enjoyable way of keeping the prisoners mentally and physically fit. Music was then added to provide additional motivation. The convicts marched and danced to several songs, including " In the Navy " and " Y.M.C.A. " by the  Village People . (Wikipedia) PSY: Gangnam Style Michael Jackson: Thriller
