This WAS going to be a full over-ten-minute video for health class on mass hysteria, but all we managed to film was the Dancing Plague D:
It's not like we didn't try to film it all, just people kept saying they couldn't go over and over. The cool thing is we get to present first :/
The plot was originally about me and my fried time traveling to different events classifying as mass hysteria through the use of a kid's carousel
So that's kinda what... the spinning... is about...
Anyways, mostly bloopers, not very well made since I needed to finish it in the time span of a half an hour orz

Hi - the 'dancing plague' was most probably caused by a complication of rheumatic fever. My daughter had it in 2009, it's called 'St Vitus' Dance' or Sydenhams Chorea. Great little video, but let your class know that the dancing plague probably had a medical cause, not a relegious one! Since the development of penicillin it is less common, thankfully!
