Michael Jackson's Drill Dance Instructional Video with Associate Director/Choreographer Travis Payne

[BlondeMore]

I REALLY HATE MY MEMORY!!! it sucks!

[LoisVaderMyers2006]

I HATE this is not the this is it version. It changes a little bit :/

[sandrikaifyguapa]

Its gd.. i love it

[MatteRyd]

i know the whole choreography (:



[TheSkouge]

I have the same pants as him, THEY ARE AMAZINGLY COMFORTABLE. Also Through lotsa practice i think i've learned this.

[TheBibiMJ]

I almost learn all the choreography

[funnypmLOL]

hard!!

[PrimeraDamita]

Puaj!!!

[alesmooth]

Oh my God ...Finally i learned the whole coreography!! Thanks Travis !!....

[111FAS]

[SurelyDivine]

YES!!!!!! THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR<3

[pixiesoft]

Sorry to swear but fucking awsome mate!

[jessica59able]

faltou o movimento que eu mais gosto,que ele aponta o braço pra cima e pra baixo como se fosse uma arma

[lilmamagc]

I could have sworn this video was originally uploaded in 2009

[vatech1515]

I have two chances of learning those steps. Slim and none. Nice video though.

[lilmamagc]

@vatech1515 i thought the same thing. But after watching in nonstop for about a week or two, and learning it in sections. I learned it! I'm not a dancer but its easy after you learn it.

[Valeriienuuh]

really helpful. :D

[lue3007]

when i can do it, i pay champagne to everyone!

[younglovefirstlove]

I have to dance this in front of my school this december ): this is gonna be deadly, I can't dance

[MJFan4ever11]

Why can't other tutorial videos be like this? :) It's a LOT easier to learn the moves when the camera is like this!

[MO8PHG10]

Muito incrível essa coreografia, fiquei muito encantada.. Não sabia da existência de The Drill até q lançam This Is It... ameei!! amo q amo.

[IloveTinoandMJ]

My cousin and I tried learning this and we failed epically. :( We'll keep trying though

[CLAVOify]

wooooooooooo........awesome!

[suziestar777]

he he he hahaha!!!! idiots

[LeMnwalkr]

It's amazingggggggggg!!!!! MJ FOREVER

[amoustedam]

esse cara é demais ........Michael Jackson uma Estrela Universal .....sempre Machael..........Isaias Manaus AM BRASIL

[GReenZey]

Man ! this is so awesome!!! this will make it so much easier for me to learn it... thanks Travis for breaking in down... Can you break it down for some other michael Jackson moves?

[misshardy1111]

[HollyWoodGrammys]

D@MN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Travis !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MJledgend]

Very good Video, thanks Travis :)

[MJledgend]

Very good learning Video thanks Travis :)

[sexygatita411]

Im so inspired to learn this.. right now. Woo! :D

[secret573]

sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooo eaaassssyyyy

[misshardy1111]

@secret573 i hope your jokeing this was not easy unless you are a dancer but it is still a lot of work

[secret573]

@misshardy1111 seriously, im not joking, im not even a dancer but i can follow it, but though of course needs a lot effort to get it correctly..

[lillylienxo]

@secret573 lol thanks for sharing

[gothassassin14]

This is like unarmed exhibition drill. Too bad we didn't have that at my school. lol

[cybermarsactual]

Associate? thats what there calling homos now?

[Kuroiboshi]

It's kinda hard for me, but I'm learning

[Gemataria]

The Dislike-bar is like Lady Gaga's Dick...

Very small and it shouldn't be there

[theharveyco]

met travis back at morehouse college during the rhythm nation days....i modeled he danced....he made it and I gained 100 lbs.......

[sandy10842]

Holy Shit! I forgot step two, with the guy in front of me!! Damn, what a routine!!

I am very impressed!!!

[matheusblak]

muito legal ainda to aprendendo mas que e muito loko e

[SnowLeopard4eva]

I'm going to learn this but it looks like I'm going to have to watch the video a few more times until I fully learn it.

[oberkin]

yeah!, this is cool, cause most of the teachers, do it facing the camera, and most of people tend to copy in a mirror way (so instead of moving his left hand move the right). I can "unmirror" it so i can learn the dance as it is intended to be danced, but this guy makes it so much easier cause you can see the back, the front and you just have to copy it

[teo4evermj]

@oberkin SO true!

[Andy96MichaelJackson]

Yeah! I learn it! n.n

Michael, two years without you, and actually, your leyend still alive...

Rest In Peace, The King Of Pop! :D

[anubhav55]

It is not as easy as i used to imagine it.. requires a lil bit of training. I have homework for weekend it seems :P.

[TheONLYhotchick]

Im going to learn this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :0

[CP1982Jackson]

I have actually learned this Drill, but it has taken a while I will say, and a lot of practice. Thanks Travis, because of your influence among others...I can now accomplish things that I had only once dreamed of doing. For those of you whom have actually watched this (maybe about 100 times more or less) have you noticed that there is a ton of detail in this? I think it is just amazing as to how someone could actually come up with these ideas. Thanks again Travis... Cole Porter

[GReenZey]

@CP1982Jackson

Same here! been dreaming to do this for long time... so glad I found this!! XD

[jabsaba3]

Please Everybody see My Self Mj Dance Movie

[bbrianblair]

Wow...He goes on quickly!

[MJFanatic96]

FUCK $ONY

[itsishaanhere]

lol

[mrsmjackson1]

Wow, this is impressive. Makes me realize even more how sharp Michael must have been to learn this routine. eeks. So tricky. Beautiful man too. So glad Michael had him for support.

[JessOvBHE]

Its better to learn from watching the movie in slow-motion in my opinion, that way, you get all the head movements right and its a bit different in the middle. Still good tutorial, im stealing the music from this video for my school dance vid ;D

[SamuelRyckier]

Good instrutions ... however... I laughed like hell at 2:20 lol.

[satanivarnum]

I don't really know what this guy do. But yeah. The world is a much richer place with him dancing by the mirror. Really! 1,2,3,4 stretch you arms. High knees. All that stuff. Really thx.

WTF? Thumbs down

[htw4mj]

Love this ! And love Travis Payne. He has been 100% supportive of MJ and I, for one, appreciate that very much. Now .. I must start practicing this Drill Dance ! =)

[clubersmj]

[zoki20001]

[MichaelJacksonsLove2]

People, just ignore the haters, and don't yell at them and cuss them out. Michael wouldn't want that, remember L.O.V.E!!!

[Carrie8515]

Thank you so much Travis! You tought me the Drill perfectly!!

[Elin48]

I'm already lost. Unfortunately, I'm no one's competition. : > ( This is not to say that I don't admire anyone who can keep up with any dance routine and this one in particular, or even the ones you'd find at the YMCA.

[TurtalTheManWife]

haha 1:05 "..1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and 8 ...Who's bad."

[TheYuuVideo]

[LittleBoiFen]

I love Travis, he's so sweet and humble, just like Michael. But unlike Michael, lol, I have Travis' autograph.

[DeadDaisyProductions]

[fatzjackson]

@DeadDaisyProductions

Exactly ;)

[cindy18073]

[PurpleIce77238]

[MISSFABFASHION]

Is that the guy teaching on the wii game?

[byway1000]

Thats woow :d

[faegrrrl]

He fascinates me!!

[XxAnnaAveXx]

some of you might think im crazy but , i mean , this is the best dance routine ever created. i mean damn.

[nenabunena]

@XxAnnaAveXx No, not crazy, I love this choreography as well.  According to the dancers JAM was the most difficult routine & a FAVORITE though.

[Kindiakan]

@XxAnnaAveXx 2 Bad/Smooth Criminal/Dangerous are also some of the best

[bbjberioso]

WHERE I CAN BUY THE SONG ON THIS that Travis is using in the tutorial?

[XxAnnaAveXx]

@bbjberioso try beemp3 . com , and look up "Michael Jackson Drill" and its the first one. its the full verison. :) its free !!!!!!!!!!!! lawl

[LeaJo100]

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!!! Please be my teacher too!!!

[Febbbb1]

[zoetra1]

I LOVE this. I wish he would put it out in a DVD.

[Director84]

@zoetra1 I think it's among the specials on the "This is it" DVD.

[GAGOMJJ]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH))))))))))))))))

[MJJs4evurPYT]

I don't understand how this would get thumbs down?

This is a genius routine! I'm learning it, myself.... but I just don't understand how people don't like it....

[naurukwk]

coooool



[xxtasha10xx]

Travis payne was MJ choreographer for many years well i think since the bad concert and that was when MJ was young so imagine how Travis must have felt when he died!

The fans think they had a tough time dealing with his death,Imagine how his family,friends but most of all his children felt!!

But i know they can think of all the good memories and be happy.

And they did see MJ perform but i don't think little blanket did but im guessing michael put on private shows for them to see him dance.

R.I.P

[monkeystar2307]

wow, you almost hit it as hard as Michael. congrats!

[airamanddex]

he mad uptight haha

[airamanddex]

theyre twins?

[billtalentfreak202]

My dance team did this at my school just recently. Everyone loved it! :) We love doing it. Thanks, Travis, for making all this MJ magic possible!

[TheIopAndTheSac]

I might do this dance for the school. :D can't wait

[externalpower]

@TheIopAndTheSac you will look just like the worlds biggest pedophile. awsome.

[EXPL96]

HOLY COW,did MJ created this?

[startrack33333]

this is so wonderful

[TheBombastik3]

Travis Payne is  the king of Instructional Videos!!!

[Emmerlii]

This isn't the proper drill! It doesn't have the thing with the straight arms and one goes up as the other goes down. (if that makes sense)

[ILoveYouOmerBhatti]

YES

[eg2410109]

come see my remake of michael jackson thriller

[sk20009]

[Troxplayas]

@leeonightus Did you get the one for the Wii ? Just wondering cuz I'm thinking about getting it, but I've heard there are two versions out now .. one for the Wii and one for something else.

[dileedavis]

Travis is the best !!!!!

[kaborin0610]

Bravo, Travis! You are helping!

Now I (maybe) can get the complicated cool choreography!

[kaborin0610]

Bravo, Travis! You are helping!

[mfLuci23]

i just don't get it ...why u ppl must be retarded and give thumbs down..? wtf i just dont see what is wrong in the video...its just a guy helping other people out ... what it wrong with that? u ppl need some special help ...

[kaborin0610]

@mfLuci23 They are ppl called perverse.

Just leave them.

[babbyfat34]

@mfLuci23 SHUT UP SHUT UP STOP HATTEIN!!!!

[Mexisio22]

@mfLuci23 helping them be child molesting fags.

[mfLuci23]

@Mexisio22 hey asshole..we dont care about you're emo bitch whining...and we most shurely don't care if you were molested by you're uncle frank when you were 6 ...its ure problems ...deal with them...stop being a retard...

[Mexisio22]

@mfLuci23 I could barely understand what the fuck you're saying fag. Finish school, then come back and try writing in some language.

[mfLuci23]

@Mexisio22 well you can't understand shit because you are a retard...now...stop being a retard ...and you will understand ...

[qutie310]

u must be haha so just shut ur lips hes good

[yassin166]

@mfLuci23 Those dislikers can't dance

[sablo75]

@mfLuci23 - 29 dislikes means 29 people are frustrated dancers...no matter how hard they try their bodies will always be stiff...LOL!!!

[shorty234ify]

@mfLuci23 i Agreed! he just want to help some people help them whit the steps! what's wrong whit that ? :S

[DalgaardBaby]

Fucking Niice man!! Have to learn this! Love You Michael<3'♫ 

[Minniebaybeh15]

Wow great video i MISS MJ R.I.P

[acornoddity]

Who the hell gave this a thumbs down? WHAT THE FRIG? People have issues.

[ABCHealTheWorld]

I'll bet Mr. Payne was one of Michael's most trusted friends. God bless Travis Payne. I totally respect TP.

[xNinjaLovex]

dance is awssommmeeee!!gonna learn it!:]

[ratedsc]

Dang I wish Youtube had a slow mo function. Its pretty challenging. I try to rewind it over and over, try to get it step by step, but dang, its definately not easy.. :(

[1994colibri]

@ratedsc :yes that´s true,try to download this video,maybe the slowmotion goes with the vlc player

[1994colibri]

you are the best,better than jacko,because you taught him how to do this amazing great dance.Jacko we miss you!!

[ellaesmenthedosa]

@1994colibri Please don't say "Jacko". Travis Payne isn't better. He can't do the moves as good as Michael and he didn't teach him everything. True talent can't be taught.
