  • Free Palestine!

  • Love it!

    

  • Great CD Hupp Cossack and what a life and true story about the dance for life of another Jew over the Cossacks.

    

  • I like !!

    What is the song name?

  • @Hiorboy For those of you asking, the song is "Hupp Cossack" by Avraham Fried, according to one of your fellow commentators. (read the description) look it up on Grooveshark

  • @fedepresti Thanks!

  • haha cute commercial

  • FYI: the niggun is from the Shpoler Zeide... gotta give credit where its due :)

  • שמע ישראל שניאורסאהן אלוהינ שניאורסאהן אחד

  • How awesome! What is the song name?

  • @HiroKawaii

    The name of the song is "Hop Kazak" it means "Jump, Cossack, Jump".

    It once happened that a Jew who had rented an inn from the local landlord had fallen behind in his payments and was jailed. The landlord announced that on a particular day this Jew was to be dressed in a bear costume and to compete in a dance contest. Rabbi Aryeh Leib of Shpoleh, the Shpoler Zeide put his life on the line and secretly took the place of this unfortunate Jew. This is the song to which they danced.

  • Wow. Your grammer is just to spectacular. You must have passed your redneck exams. What do you know about Judaism anyways? Clearly nothing. And any other religion? Nothing as well. Im not Jewish and I won't only because I don't like religion, but I'm not going to diss the community that is continuing to build this country instead of your lazy ass. Plus the communist hate Jews. Are you a communist? You must be, because you're using the wealth of somebody else to benefit yourself. Suck on that!

  • moosen27: you started well, then you went "american". I'm ashamed to say that Jews *were* communists. Now I'm sorry, but you get a red card and you go back to the library.

  • great video, hope to make my own soon once i get a full size green screen & the proper lighting setup :)

  • Thanks!

    We picked up the green screen from Samy's Camera for I think $30 and rented the lighting kit for about the same. If I had my way, I would have lit the floor to kill the dancers' shadows. I also would've lit the kids with some "negative green" or magenta light to further separate them from the background. You'll need C-stands to hold up the green screen.

    Good luck ;)

  • thanks 4 the tip but im in Australia so i dont know what Samy's Camera is and i also wanted a permanent green screen setup so i dont really want to rent

  • Whoa, forgot this Internet thing went global already. Samy's is a local camera shop in Los Angeles but any good photography store should have 9'x36' rolls of thick paper in dozens of colors. The $30 I stated is purchase only because they don't rent consumables.

    Obviously, a more expensive and substantial setup is to build your own curved set and paint it with the official green paint.

  • Soul-lifting!

  • omg i love it who's the singer? i want to download this number im realy a great fan of it

  • joffi!!!!

  • what is the title of this Niggun?

  • כל הכבוד! אתם עושים כבוד לכל היהודים חב"ד מס1

  • LOVE THIS xxx

  • chabad was made חרם like 300 yrs ago.

  • Okay, for the people who are h8n. This video makes my head spin of how un-original it is. but just say you don't like it instead of anti-Semitic slurs. The guy who did the moonwalk really sucks at it, I can do a much better job! There? wasn't that easy?

    Hate the persons action(s), not him/her.

  • As a parody, it's not supposed to be original.

    But yeah, the boys weren't nearly as good dancing as the girls were. Thanks for the comment.

    You cause all the problems in the world you bitchy fucker. FUCK YOU

  • I've heard several Yiddish tunes with the same melody and structure.

  • the song is called hup kazak, except I'm probably not spelling the kasak correctly.

  • Coool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i want this song, what's it called?

  • Hup Kazak. I think the story goes that some evil landowner a few hundred years ago wanted to throw a chassidic jew into prison for not paying his rent. He couldn't pay and the landowner brough him to party and dressed him up into a bear suit - if he couldnt sing and dnace for them better than the hired entertainer he would be put in prison. So he started this dance and made the words up and the pepolpe liked it so much they started singing with him and he was freed and honored. Good song!

  • What is the name of this song? I love it!

  • thats no jewish music.... search for Klezmer

  • It is Jewsish music, duh, it's Avraham Freid duh

  • Lol it aint Avraham Frieds, he just sings it. it been around for ever. oh and you shoudl listen to some real jewsih music - theres alot more than Freid out there.

  • Yeah, but HE IS singing it, therefore it is jewish, And yeah I DO know other jewish music, I didn't say "OMFGROFL! Avraham Fried is the only Jewish musician out there!"

  • That's awesome!!  I've never really heard jewish music before.

  • What an awesome video! Incredible how the spirit of Torah brings out such joy!

  • You and your racist ideas don't even deserve to share the world with the people in this video. Peace-loving Jews are better off than any anti-semite pig anytime, anywhere!

  • Get losh you ant-Jewish Shmuck!!

  • i think world belongs to these ugly faces.

    if you can not see it,you should see a docotor.

    lol addictive

  • I <3 this!

  • omg... the video makes that school look like fun! its EVIL worst skewl EVER!

  • School?

  • Ahahaha ive never seen this :P

    they dont even have ipods

  • One reason they don't have iPods is that I didn't know how to comp them in. We didn't have the budget or the skill to attach computer generated iPods & cables to the dancers. Nor did I know how to extract a key off real ones and make them white.

    Finally, since it's not an iPod commercial, they weren't needed.

  • masha'allah! so cute! hehe. thank you for posting this!

  • nice video..

  • haha. Nice vid. tis nice and well thought out

  • Hazzar!

  • I love it!!

  • it's great, but you have to just speed up the dancing a bit. really easy to do.

  • How fun! What a cute idea.

  • Oy vay! so cute!

  • Song:

    Avraham Fried - Hupp Cossack

  • thanks a bunch!!!

  • Av Fried is well known to Orthodox Jews and most non Orthodox Jews. I'm Orthodox.

  • I think the music is by Avraham Fried

  • I have no idea how you know that, but you are correct.

  • Never mind. I see someone else wrote it already.

  • Wonderful! Toda raba! ^^

  • A very feel good video.

    It definately made me smile :)

    What's the song called? :D

  • Or could i give you my email address or something? I can send you a personal message with it. Please let me know

  • I've already caused enough trouble uploading it to YouTube. Besides, I only worked on it, and don't have authority to do that. Double-besides, the full, uncompressed file is huge.

  • could you upload it to a website or file sharing site like rapidshare or mega upload. I would like a higher quality version of this?

  • is there anywhere to download a high quality version of this video?

  • You mean besides my hard drive? Not that I'm aware of. Why?

  • i personally love this video because it shows me that whoever made it is not afraid of who they are or what religion they are. I don't care if your Jewish Christian or Aetheist, if you have good music then we will listen!

  • Haha, thanks. I can't take credit for it. I lit the green screen, helped direct the children, and composited the dancers onto the colored backgrounds. The original concept is by Dave Viola. Josh Assail directed, cut, and produced it for Chabad of San Diego.

    We shot this at the Chabad Academy and the kids and rabbis were great to work with. Zoe, the little girl on yellow (.23 sec), was adorable. Gotta love it: her mother is a black scientist and her father is the hatless rabbi at .13 sec.

  • Thank you, i love the video! I lik eth song too. Good job. ^_^

  • I agree with rhammer1 and Shtulim... too many Jews these days are afraid to be Jewish. It is a sad thing that's why I LOVE Chabbad and Hasidim in general because they are not afraid. When we show fear, they (Anti-Semites)win.

  • man; i've seen Hasidim burst into random song and dance in the streets. It's fun. Man; I've even joined in with them in the Old City.

  • loved it... u guyz are gr8! lol

  • why are you guys gettin so serious about it?

    i like it.

  • sweet.

  • watch how you portray jews will you? Don't make us look foolish you idiots. You clowns. Antisemites are everywhere. I'm afraid to leave my apt. without being chased down the street.

  • I feel sorry for you. Not that I'm a Hassidic Jew but every portrayal of Judaism is good enough for me. Over the course of history Jews have nothing to be ashamed about their religion. On the contrary, the other two immitations (christianity and Islam) have. first, be proud of yourself as a person - being a Jew is just another advantage.

  • this isn't portaying jews in a bad way in my opinion. i love this video. very funny. and hassidim dance a lot. that's not a stereotype, that's a fact, which they should be(and are) proud of! how is a few dancing jews portaying all jews in a bad way?

  • what are you smoking??? People like you make us look foolish. Be a strong Yid and don't be afraid to be Jewish. Anyway..who cares what they think...they'll still think the same whether you look like them or act like a Jew. H*tler may his name be wiped out, proved that!

  • If you have a pair of balls, USE THEM!!!!

  • um... if your referring to sexual abstination, its a commandment to do it.

    Your probably thinkgin of christian priests. All jews, rabbi or not have to fullfil the commandment.

  • coward!chassidim dance,educate yourself my brother!they dance in celebration of H-SHEM!your the one who looks foolish not understanding and being ashamed of YOUR own identity!im not having ago at you,i love all jews(well there are a few i aint mad on)!

  • I am Jewish and I don't take offence to this video at all. It essentially celebrates the positive artistic & cultural elements of Hasidic Judaism. I think your a little bit of a reactionary...

  • lol - i like it, I put it on my site

  • hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­h

    jokers
