Was it that ridiculous for him to expect this restaurant to be a little different? Not like "the waiters are going to swear at you and everyone will breakdance" but "a different atmosphere or vibe or food or something".

When I go to a restaurant in a primarily Indian neighbourhood (even if it's not an "Indian restaurant") all sorts of things are different - the tables, the waiters, the course of the meal, the music, the atmosphere. Obviously the food. It's not shocking that different cultural and ethnic groups routinely like things different ways and this shows up in how a restaurant operates.

I don't think it's horribly racist to imagine that black people might like certain things different in a restaurant in a black neighborhood patronized primarily by black people. In fact, I think it'd be a bit racist to go into a black restaurant expecting them to run everything exactly the same.

Honestly, I think it is a bit interesting and surprising that there wasn't differences that a guy like Bill would have noticed.

And sure, this is giving Bill the benefit of some doubt, but watching his remarks a few times this does even seem to be the sense he's trying to get at. That said, he should be smart enough to know how this is going to sound and not say it.

I think this is a dupe

That was part of the show. It was their imitation of "Breakdancer Accidentally Kicks Baby"

lotsa' promotable stuff in those discards, histnerd.

i hereby initiate a dance-off.

and apparently posted before me too

Funny how it couldn't get sifted up before...

thought you might want to add this to your "breakdancing" playlist

you do realize that you need "breaks" as in the rhythmic breakdown to have actual break dancing. You can't just be a cirque du soleil freak and call it break dancing just because you spin every once in a while. I'd say neat to watch but DEFINITELY not breakdancing.

Maybe if they put it to music that actually contained breaks I could see it.

The music does blow.

It looks like he does some usual breakdancing moves and instead puts one of his feet in an uncomfortable position. All while wearing skin tight jeans.

saosin's a cool band, but it doesn't exactly fit breakdancing. However, this isn't exactly breakdancing so i guess it fits. sweet vid though

the krauts sure like it!
I'd downvote your comment so hard if I could.

I know the Kleenex guy. I've seen him perform live in the Dutch breakdancing championships. Great humor and incredible to watch. Upvote!

Rodney was cool... then came pool and vert skating, which was pretty rad,... then street skating took to the air... handrails and tricks over gaps... combining technical skating with huge-balls, giving us the glory that was Jamie Thomas in 'Welcome to Hell'...

Not that its fair to compare guys from different times, and its also kind of like comparing breakdancing to parkour, very different things. If Mullen's invented it on the flatland, Jamie did it while flying at 20mph down a set of 15 stairs... I know which one I think is cooler.

A) You should post the more complete video, where he gets back up on stage and keeps going: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTDQ3aBwHwE

B) Breakdancing... 1985... That's like saying, "What's the hardest part about making fun of people in videos on the internet? Finding out that it's not 2003."

Just wondered why you'd banned my breakdancing video? I'm new to videosift - and a bit bemused why you did that. It's been really well received on YouTube - loads of positives. What did I do wrong?
