@simwrangler yo who gives a damn about adams and eve and black and white this has nothing to do with race its dance which every race does well if it was a white dude killing it id still be like this is sick dance has no color bro
How the fuck can an innocent video go to racism? This a cool video and the guy can dance, but the racist comments are getting old! Just realize what ever color you are there's someone who doesn't like you and then you die!! Enjoy your short ass life while you can!!!
blacks got that natural soul, and some other races are blessed with the gift too while most r just taught. im not being stereo typical or rude, im giving compliments and props on how black people dance thats all, im probably sounding like an idiot because of my wording but my heart is in the right place
@guitarlegionleader We didnt exist in the 40's huh yo ass didnt exist until the time of Issac and Rebekah whites never exist when my ancient forfathers build the pyramids under the oppression of the Egyptians we can go farther than that Adam and eve they were black and you really didnt exist fuck outta here.
@PrinceOfthyPower7 hey, dumbass, how do you know that Adam wasn't white and Eve was black or vice versa? You racist black bastards always think you're the supreme race. Guess what asswipe, there are NO supreme race except for the HUMAN RACE.
Neither Adam nor Eve could have been black because even white geneticist have admitted that the pale skin genetic mutation present in non-blacks was not around until sometime during or after the Ice Age. Before then, ALL of us modern human biengs were natural skin toned, AKA "black".
The "Human Beatbox" is provided by men who were possibly the first famous black vocal group of the recorded sound era: The Mills Brothers. Groups like The Ink Spots, the Moonglows, the Five Satins and, of course, The Temptations all owe something to the Mills Brothers. The melody they are harmonizing is, "Caravan," a Duke Ellington hit from that era.
great stuff! what's this from??? and yeah break dancing owes a lot to previous flash dance (acrobatic dance) forms from before. acrobatic dancing is nothing new in general, neither is battle dance... not take away for breaking, they have innovated and came up with new moves but it was created on the backs of previous flash dance styles. very little can be created in a vacuum.
I wonder if it's possible to show a direct lineage, or progression, through archival footage from then until the 80's. Or perhaps going back even further to Africa.
@jeanaro yeah, people are close minded. they see something done by a current person in this day and age and dont realise that it came from somewhere. and they cant handle that they are wrong thinking its a new thing, everything has roots...its a shame many dont realise this. the early 20th century has given us a lot of things we use today, just in a new style and to new music...like even the word dude for example, came from the 1870s....and look how common it is, people are saying it to this day
@guitarlegionleader Who gave you permission to take your snout out of the trough?? Just keep on wallowing in shit and I know it's difficult but try not to eat it. Oink oink!!
@guitarlegionleader Hey little piggy, you do wallow in shit. It's in your nature, nothing to be ashamed of. All creatures of genus sus wallow in excrement. That's nature. Oink oink!!
@guitarlegionleader Get the message!! You're a shit devouring pig who when not eating the stuff is simply content to wallow in it. Stop living in denial. That's what your genus does. They eat poo, they do!
@EDMCHAOZ Um, they're making a movie - the girls probably had to watch him do backflip after backflip a million times until they finished the scene the way the director wanted it. Yeah, they're not going to have a reaction after so many times.
the human body only moves so many ways. Every dance has been done. B-Boys just rediscovered lost body movements when they started dancing to break beat records. Doesn't take away from their creativity or anything so these arguements are ridiculous
This comment is for kissipoo, Latinos may have not invented breakdancing but invented and have perfected the lowrider now everybody tricks out their rides but who cares acting like Latinos dont come up with dances there's plenty of dances out there were like la lambada or merengue or salsa.. I'd rather watch a woman do that cause they look 100 Times sexier than booty dancin..
Its not the 40's and its not Breakdancing. Its the 1930's ( quality of film tells me so, so does coustume designs) And it is a wonderful dance called the Lindy Hop, which came from the charleston and later became Swing dancing, and now breakdancing
Name any dance stylez other racial groups came up with in this modern era. Black people have recently invited footworkin or jukin in Chicago, Krumpin in La, Jittin in Detroit, beatin yo feet dancin, etc the list goes on. If latinos or other racial groups invited break dance why haven't they invited nothing new. Because they didn't event nothing. You hate us so much
@queensbridge97 Dude, have you seen any videos of Bill Bailey doing something similar to the moonwalk, Earl "Snakehips" Tucker's "Eccentric Dance", or that Daft Punk/Charleston video (which has a link to the original version on the side)? I'm pretty sure this is original. Plus the quartet of people making instrument sounds in the beginning are the Mills Brothers, a real group from that era.
This just goes to show that there is nothing new under the sun. For all of human kind, there has been all forms of dance from all cultures. Embrace the God given creativity of humankind for all.
omg i thought breakdancing was like 4rm the mid 70's & as we all kno got famous in the 80's. But dane this is great. thnx 4 postin & teaching us something. great job.
people are always saying that things are "played out ". but the real is what's left out. we look at who we call the greats now and will never know how great we were and can still be. by the way the song in this video was bitten by the cartoon underdog. hmmmm I wonder how even they got the name. wake up. good video
Wow . . . I just wandered in here because I wanted to see a nostalgic video. No need to argue about this - it's just an old video clip of some dance moves, that's all. I sincerely doubt that the person who posted this intended to start a fight. Damn, there's a lot of anger on YouTube!
Now if you want to talk about Breakin'. Let's go to Brazil where Caepoeira was banned for 300 yrs. African slave used it entertain but it develope into a fighting art which was brought over here with Blacks from Angola which is named after other the styles. The other is called Regional or modern.
To really put an end to the arguments of the origins of street dancing in America, I see most don't know history. It started on the slaves ships where slaves had to excercise to stay in shape. Slave traders made them do limbering step so they won't cramp or stiffen up i.e. the limbo. It was the first official dance of the new world. The most entertaining dances started in New Orleans in the early 1700's from Haitian refugees now American slaves having a weekly party at Congo Square, NOLA.
The original "bboys" from new york in the early 70s like the nigga twins and spy gave credit to people like the nicholas bros., sammy davis, james brown and so on. They just chopped it up and put it into one big gumbo so to speak. But isn't that hip hop anyway, a little bit of this a little bit of that. The first street dance group "The Lockers" also credited these sources as inspiration.
I suspect there was LOTS of fantastic dancing going on in clubs that we'll never see because it didn't fit the mold AND was being done by 'minorities'. Yet another example of what the world misses when bigotry prevails.
I WONDER IF CRAZY LEGS SAW THIS? CUZ I THOUGHT HE CAME UP THAT MOVE FIRST! I GUESS NOT!!! DAM TOO BAD THERE ISNT A DOCUMENTARY ON BLACK DANCE OF 30'S,40'S,50'S AND 60'S! AND I MEAND IN DETAIL!!
Of course there are black people in latin america, But thats not what Im referring to . It was reply to person that said that south americans are a mix of african and indian blood.
Eh, people getting all into who made b-boying, you think this video proves it to only be from one source? moves came from everywhere, tribal, jazz, gymnastics, salsa, poe one made the airchair, kujo made the airflare, hundreds of people of all kinds made all sorts of movements we love today. Old martial arts and Ukrainian Cossack dancing is even involved (first dance to seem to 'battle'), more modernly it has contemporary flexibility and tricking / unorthodox flips. It didn't come from 1 source
@InfiniteStyleCrew and yet none of those power moves you call breakdancing have anything to do with the breakdancing WE created back in the early 80s, the real breakdancing is danced standing up (for the most part) and it has nothing to do with power moves (search boogaloo shrimp videos)
@affiliate30 Are you judging me? "you call breakdancing"
I don't call it breakdancing, I call it b-boying, read my post.
"Power moves" ARE a part of it, coffee grinders, backspin, turtles, rocks even headspins existed before the 80's fool. YOU made b-boying did you? Tell me what you invented, show and prove. The "real breakdancing" is not owned by you to define, you cocky self righteous resentful man. The real b-boying is part of Hip-hop, an expression of dance for everyone.
its the same breakdancing that almost died 30 years ago, it's thanks to the new generation that breakdancing is flourishing like it is today. breakdancing 30 years ago was very boring to watch,
@wichywashy breakdancing back in the 80s was exactly that, breakdancing. Nowadays this what you call breakdancing is nothing but gymnastics being performed to music.
Well its thanks to gymnastic/kung fu/capoeira that we got the "power move " element, and dont mis understand me, power moves with out hitting the beat is very boring. What i mean is that in this day and age dancers have fused both power moves and footwork into one so well, that really breakdancing is more then just foundation, what breakdancing has become today is innnovation.
just look at wing, taisuke,cloud,kiddo etc.. and tons of other bboys.

@wichywashy No, I didn't give you the wrong link, that what he is doing there IS the breakdancing we created back in the 80s, anything else is probably rubbish
f you mean poppin, then you didin't create shit... havent you seen watch?v=7U4ww-MmAY4&feature=related
also tutting comes from egyptian dance.
and if that is breakdancing, why dont we see that kind of dancing on breakdance events anymore, i know ppl used to do that in breakdancing, but it seriously doesen't fit with it anymore. thus is the reason why its called poppin, and it stays there now.

Wow . . . I just wandered in here because I wanted to see a nostalgic video. No need to argue about this - it's just an old video clip of some dance moves, that's all. I sincerely doubt that the person who posted this intended to start a fight. Damn, there's a lot of anger on YouTube!

Now if you want to talk about Breakin'. Let's go to Brazil where Caepoeira was banned for 300 yrs. African slave used it entertain but it develope into a fighting art which was brought over here with Blacks from Angola which is named after other the styles. The other is called Regional or modern.

To really put an end to the arguments of the origins of street dancing in America, I see most don't know history. It started on the slaves ships where slaves had to excercise to stay in shape. Slave traders made them do limbering step so they won't cramp or stiffen up i.e. the limbo. It was the first official dance of the new world. The most entertaining dances started in New Orleans in the early 1700's from Haitian refugees now American slaves having a weekly party at Congo Square, NOLA.

The original "bboys" from new york in the early 70s like the nigga twins and spy gave credit to people like the nicholas bros., sammy davis, james brown and so on. They just chopped it up and put it into one big gumbo so to speak. But isn't that hip hop anyway, a little bit of this a little bit of that. The first street dance group "The Lockers" also credited these sources as inspiration.

Fantastic!
I suspect there was LOTS of fantastic dancing going on in clubs that we'll never see because it didn't fit the mold AND was being done by 'minorities'. Yet another example of what the world misses when bigotry prevails.

Eh, people getting all into who made b-boying, you think this video proves it to only be from one source? moves came from everywhere, tribal, jazz, gymnastics, salsa, poe one made the airchair, kujo made the airflare, hundreds of people of all kinds made all sorts of movements we love today. Old martial arts and Ukrainian Cossack dancing is even involved (first dance to seem to 'battle'), more modernly it has contemporary flexibility and tricking / unorthodox flips. It didn't come from 1 source

@InfiniteStyleCrew "...Kujo made the airflare..." Is that true? Where did you get your information from?

@graffitypsycho
Word of mouth from other b-boys.
Kujo says it himself as well as far as I know. His version was quite different to the common version we see today though.

@InfiniteStyleCrew and yet none of those power moves you call breakdancing have anything to do with the breakdancing WE created back in the early 80s, the real breakdancing is danced standing up (for the most part) and it has nothing to do with power moves (search boogaloo shrimp videos)

@affiliate30 Are you judging me? "you call breakdancing"
I don't call it breakdancing, I call it b-boying, read my post.
"Power moves" ARE a part of it, coffee grinders, backspin, turtles, rocks even headspins existed before the 80's fool. YOU made b-boying did you? Tell me what you invented, show and prove. The "real breakdancing" is not owned by you to define, you cocky self righteous resentful man. The real b-boying is part of Hip-hop, an expression of dance for everyone.

its the same breakdancing that almost died 30 years ago, it's thanks to the new generation that breakdancing is flourishing like it is today. breakdancing 30 years ago was very boring to watch,

@wichywashy breakdancing back in the 80s was exactly that, breakdancing. Nowadays this what you call breakdancing is nothing but gymnastics being performed to music.

Well its thanks to gymnastic/kung fu/capoeira that we got the "power move " element, and dont mis understand me, power moves with out hitting the beat is very boring. What i mean is that in this day and age dancers have fused both power moves and footwork into one so well, that really breakdancing is more then just foundation, what breakdancing has become today is innnovation.
just look at wing, taisuke,cloud,kiddo etc.. and tons of other bboys.

@affiliate30 part 2
you can't just limit yourself with airchairs,windmills six steps forvever.
you gotta invent new ways to dance, new moves, new styles.
since thats what breakdancing is all about, it took stuff from different cultures, dances, martial arts and gymnastics. Mixing it into a new dance.
So the natural course of bboying will always be to create new stuff and evolve.
Dont go hatng on bboys who uses power moves.
since the true essence of all dances is to be innovative and original.

f you mean poppin, then you didin't create shit... havent you seen watch?v=7U4ww-MmAY4&feature=related
also tutting comes from egyptian dance.
and if that is breakdancing, why dont we see that kind of dancing on breakdance events anymore, i know ppl used to do that in breakdancing, but it seriously doesen't fit with it anymore. thus is the reason why its called poppin, and it stays there now.
