I shocked a house fly in my nest a few months ago that did this too. I was laughing too hard because it looked like it was break dancing to me.

Yeah, if you check the wikipedia article linked above, it describes Tricking as "a type of acrobatics derived from martial arts such as sport karate incorporating techniques found in gymnastics, break dancing, and similar disciplines."

So even the (semi) official description acknowledges that it's more acrobatics than martial arts.

No seriously, who let Jedi's into the break dancing competition?

Every English poet uses the same 26 letters?

I think we stretched this far enough. I suppose the point is there is there is more to dancing than the novelty of a move you haven't seen before. Break dancing isn't exactly alone in having a "vocabulary" of moves and I don't think its the most limited either.

Missing a joke about break dancing Mormon missionaries?

Whoa is this like the beginning of break dancing?

Fool ... he's got TWO gloves on. Break [dance] time is OVER ... get back to work! =oI

The track may have been from Tron, but this idea of dancing with neon body lights doesn't necessarily make it a tribute is what he's saying. Nobody here watched America's Got Talent last season I take it otherwise this wouldn't have been anything they hadn't seen before. Team iLuminate did this stuff and largely was the one who introduced it to the mainstream as far as I can tell. Point being its a style/setting/type of dance so unless every song they do is a tribute, one by itself doesn't make it so. It would be like saying every break dance video was a tribute to You Got Served if the movie had come out before the dance style had become popular.

Was just about to ask the exact same thing.
>> ^xxovercastxx:
Much as I love watching break dancing, I can never help but notice how stupid the observers look. What's the deal with that hand gesture they all make?


Clapping is a hand gesture that serves much the same purpose and makes just as little sense.

I never get tired of watching these.
Hey, how come they're always such a sausage-fest?
Why no chix?
