He was also in a pretty incredible digitally-enhanced commercial for Volkswagen — I think it was a GTI commercial. The producers matched the set, the lighting and everything to Gene Kelly's famous street dance in "Singin' in the Rain," then had David Elsewhere perform wearing the same suit, same costume as Gene Kelly — then they digitally grafted Gene's head onto David's body. Looks like Gene Kelly melting down. Beautiful commercial.
Elsewhere is more properly known as a "meltdown artist"... And, yes, he was a lot better when he was younger, because his body was still strong and tight when he was a kid. If he tried some of those moves today, it would rip the ligaments out of his knees. Lotta strength, lotta power in his moves. That's what is deceptive. His whole body is actually TENSE when he's doing this, not loose.
I thought Michael Jackson could dance! Then I saw David Benal and got blown away! I have never seen anyone move like he does. Pure dance entertainment
A bit of trivia....Dave was in two major commercials that only featured his legs. The upper body was super imposed with 'models'. One was the Pepsi Samba commercial, the other was a Super Bowl commercial for Levi's Fly Weight Jeans....directed by Spike Jonze (Where the Wild Things Are/ MTV's Jackass).
i always wanted to see him in a movie as an alien with differant joints than us and when ever it say walks or moves it moves like dave (dont know how to discribe it lol)
menschen wie david elsewhere inspirieren leute dinge zu tun, die es bisher nicht gibt und gibt ihnen den mut an ihrem weg festzuhalten. respekt und dankeschön
The real thing I love about his style more than other people's is his pulling off moves in positions you would think he'd be done in (i.e. 2:36). My only real complaint with him is that we end up seeing the same moves many times. I suppose that's inevitable though.
You know Michael Jackson asked David to be his coach for the This is it tour? but michael passed away. it must have been an honor for david. no doubt.
David Elswhere is a illusion dancer.He does moves like something is outta of this world..But is not!its a illusion.like moonwalk.Its an illusion of being pulled backwards,but trying to waljk forward...Anyway David Elswhere is the best and most unique dancer!!! Sick!
Davids talent is unreal- many things he's learned but many things are totally his own creative talent. His work ethic to explore has no limits- which is why he is as great as he is.
This is AWESOME! Most impressing is the part at 3:03 where he seems to glide laying on the ground.The faceplant move was also very good.I wonder where he leared all that?
