It's not so much that deaf people don't like applause, it's simply that profoundly deaf people lack the sensory input to appreciate it. Holding the hands up at face level with the palms forward and fingers spread and then rotating the wrists back and forth is the preferred method. The faster you perform this action, the "louder" and more appreciative you are.
Podum77, you've said several times you find this offensive. We get it, OK? But other people are correct: It's not "sign language", it's interpretive dance/mime. How are they insulting deaf people? Are they actually making fun OF deaf people? No they aren't. It was very funny. Goodness knows the world needs a laugh right now.
n 1908 a lady named sally rusa was in the woods looking for a dog until a ghost came and killed her so if ur reading this u will find a bloody body in your closet hanging there haunting you and will kill you and ur family and if u want to stop this just sends this to 6 vids in 30 mins x
well like you all said before "never get tired of watching this" and because i found it so funny we did this song as the opening dance on our wedding and the all laught and clapped there hands,given m goosbumps everytime
So, does that mean that Deaf people cannot take a step back and laugh at themselves? I know many deaf people that think this is Funny as hell, but I guess those are the ones that take life one day at a time and have a good sense of humor about their impairment. Yes, I said impairment, that's what they see it as, essentially a nuisance.
Deaf people find it very upsetting because of his performance that deaf don't do like that and most hearing people think that deaf people do sign language like that and they making same gesture as him toward deaf
That rubbish you don't understand why deaf people find it upsetting but if you are deaf you'll understand why and please stop wasting deaf people time think deaf are weird but we are not I'm not blame lyrics it just his performance is an insults to deaf people
This was original done as an "interpretive dance" to the song, not a "Sign Language for the Hearing Impaired." No one should find offense to this and the idea is just silly.
I find your face offensive! Please find a scalpel and do something about it!
This is a skit, only meant to make fun of the song. Ofcourse I assume that you are yourself deaf and can therefore not hear the song, yes? It is simply a mime, and a funny one which does not at any point make fun of any impairment of any kind. What is does however is to show faces and actions that oversimplify the lyrics.
I realized just as I was watching this what the song is actually about. If you don't know, then pay more attention to the lyrics the next time you listen to the song or something like that.
epic!

I remember the first time seeing this and thinking it was ace.
Then came THIS on the Policeman's Ball and I'm like, feh, seen it.
And the moment Natalie shows up I'm like, fair enough, they actually got Imbruglia.
And when she started doing the dance as well,
I fell in love again.

It's not insulting it's a joke for god sake, no ones sat there laughing at deaf people, it's just a dance.
And also clapping isn't insulting to deaf people just waving your hands is obviously going to have more of an impact than noise.
Some people just complain for no good reason.

His performance was in no way related to aids for the hearing impaired. It was a mime performance, synced to the song.
