I Danced in a Prison

[@braddo7270]

Im watching this smiling from ear to ear with tears in my eyes. Lots of these people will have come from underprivileged backgrounds and horrific childhoods, and to watch their battle-scarred faces smile like children and jump around full of joy, is so captivating and wonderful... love what you do, spreading joy to all. 🙏

[@bwingbwinggwiyomi]

Dancing like this is healing their inner child. To what you said before though, it's why I believe not everyone should have kids. Because not everyone can provide a good and healthy life for their child.

[@magalilernould3802]

Exactly the same feeling. 🙏 100% de bonheur pur et de positivité sans frontières. Pourquoi cette joie intense nous tire des larmes? Peut-être parce que ces vidéos nous rappelle comment devrait être l'humanité. 😊

[@braddo7270]

@@magalilernould3802 j'ai le même sentiment. c'est beau. 😍

[@barbarameier3906]

Me too - thanks Ed for this wonderful work you do

[@kimtorre810]

Yeah. Me too crying😢

[@abbeymacedonewport5845]

Thanks to all the people who work in this prison too...showing that prisons don't have to be a place of brutality and inhumanity...but can actually be a place of rehabilitation and joy. God bless

[@yerasuar7361]

Salamat naman at kahit nasa loob kayo naalala nyo ang God , nakita ko yun sa start nang video na nag pray kayo,

[@superstarinfluencershorts]

Filipinos bring smiles to the world even they are at their lowest! So much positivity ❤

[@elisaa9981]

I'm so happy that you did this video. People tend to forget that people in prison are humans, too.

[@mformee7691]

Awwww only in the Philippines! No judgement just pure fun! The world should take notice!

[@friendships1000]

I am glad that it is a continuous rehabilitation for the Cebu Prison for the inmates to dance and be mentally , physically, psychologically and spiritually healthy. The inmates have valued dance because of its benefits. Thanks for visiting and spending time with them through dancing. I know they love to have more visitors like you, a dancer, to bond with them. I hope this will encourage more people to come and visit them at Cebu Prison.

[@YenRestherac]

So many people dehumanize those in prison But you showed us that we are all, at the end, dancing people This is such a beautiful project!❤

[@colette7736]

It's powerful!

[@rzella8022]

It's like they need people in their lives that show they care about them. I wish each of them God's blessing and especially that they will have happy lives once speedily out of prison.

[@Goldie789]

😊 Bringing some light in to a really dark place is always a healthy thing to do. Take care.

[@fr.jamesjohnson1567]

This is one of the most positive, uplifting channels on KZbin. Once again, you’ve lifted my spirit and filled it with joy! Thank you so much for making and sharing this and all your videos Ed and keep dancing! 🕺🏼

[@ebishrimpy9366]

Im really proud of the Cebu dancing inmates because its such a profound example of how in rock bottom situations and even in prison, filipinos can somehow find something to to do that helps them keep on living

[@cjKin]

I love that kind of joy. Not influenced by spirit of alcohol or blinding lights inside a bar. Just pure joy.

[@KnightGeneral]

Theyve been doing this for more than a decade now, dancing for Life and love of dance. Cebu Dancing Inmates and all the staff in the Prison, may they be a great example to the World. I had the opportunity to go in that prison as well 8 years ago. Im proud of you mga kababayan, God bless Cebu.

[@LavenderSpell111]

Who would have thought that a bunch of people in prison could give so much joy to the world. This is wonderful, thank you!

[@luciahoneybee]

I'm astonished that they prepared all that within ONE WEEK! It goes to show how much potential humans have when they're given a constructive goal that motivates them. ❤

[@bwingbwinggwiyomi]

We are all very powerful and harness this ability. It's our governments and corrupt systems that want to cause this divide between us. We have to come together like this by ourselves to make positive change happen.

[@bfdee1603]

I think that prison has been famous already for dancing inmates before this You tuber visited. So practicing for a week was merely familiarizing with d routine since they had dance skills already😅. Google dancing inmates of cebu

[@DOI_ARTS]

Prisoners can put a boat inside a bottle. A single purpose can really be effective

[@xyza1219]

​@@bfdee1603 Yeah watch the video with in they dance to michael jackson song before

[@jogarga-waters3838]

​@@bfdee1603yes they are and I guess they were included already in the World records of dancing inmates if I am not mistaken....!

[@synnerlig]

I believe dance can heal people from the inside 💕

[@bwingbwinggwiyomi]

Dance and music is healing medicine to our inner child ❤

[@umbertomaresca6192]

years ago guys the coreographer of Michael Jackson has been there ...amazing moment too.....thanks sooo much Ed for your mission...you are a super entertainer and human...🎉❤

[@carried7759]

I love this guy. What a great idea: travel the world and dance with everyone.

[@valueangles]

Problem - the foreign video-taker's dance moves are too sex-movement oriented. The prisoners have better moves!!! A bit of cultural difference -

[@NoemiDeVera-wy4hy]

Go Filipinos! You rock! So much talent…Filipinos are so talented.

[@pedestrian2530]

This is wonderful, Ed! Giving inmates a day they will never forget and a feeling of appreciation by the outside world, I bet this will make them believe they can live a decent life and be good citizens!

[@K.S.TeeVee]

Thanks for coming Ed. You have brought joy not only for the viewers but to these inmates too. Something to show the world that prisons can look like this, where positive vibes, healing and humanity is plain for everyone to see. Greetings from the Philippines

[@simonavecchiotti6039]

You and the dancers make me cry this time, too much emotions... May God bless you and all the dancers there. Greeting from Italy ❤

[@juliana_imholz]

You are really an angel, my friend. So beautiful to see that they are having an amazing time. Blessings to everyone from Switzerland 🇨🇭❤️🙏🏼

[@federicoeveza9656]

Amazingly enough to see how you danced with the inmates. The world haven’t seen any thing like that, only in the Philippines.

[@sylviacarlson3561]

I found this very touching. This is the kind of thing that brings people together. There is no prison when you dance.

[@aklanongid8938]

I cant stop laughing but had tears at the same time,because of you they all enjoy even just a short period of time.Thank you to You Sir.

[@bellelabiste1527]

I actually don’t see these prisoners as they are cons…but rather, I see them as the joyful entertainers who have a lot of light and hope despite their incarceration ❤ good job, Ed!👌

[@bethcushway458]

My face hurts from smiling non-stop and I'm crying happy tears. Thank you so much Ed❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@miriamlink8515]

This is so wonderful. I know from my own experience that dancing can help you through dark times. Unfortunately, I stopped dancing some time ago and I miss dancing very much, especially in a group. The good mood, the dancing together and the energy is just beautiful.

[@yolandasaravia9375]

This is awesome. Thanks for showing it to the world. In singing and dancing, Filipinos rocks whatever the situation or status. God bless.

Amazing, dude. Loved the video.❤ I rarely smile, damn. This one made my cheeks hurt a bit. 😅

[@virus5600]

I'm just glad they continue this program. I was a kid when I first heard them in the news and now I'm 24, I stumbled upon a documentary of them. I'm so happy that they seemed to still be happy and in harmony. Moreso that they now have improved equipment! Truly, I really wish and hope that these inmates managed to rehabilitate themselves and managed to integrate back into the society. Thanks for providing such an optimistic video!

[@mariomovillon1613]

Ed, you are a naturally gifted and awesome dancer, with so much zest and energy! And you truly enjoyed dancing with the inmates as if there's no tomorrow and what matters only is today! We enjoyed watching your dance performance all the way! Superb!

[@jessicamisic7849]

Es ist toll zu sehen, dass die Menschen im Gefängnis einen guten Weg gefunden haben, sich (sinnvoll) zu beschäftigen und mit viel Freude und Leidenschaft tanzen. Man spürt geradezu die positive Energie, die sie versprühen! Sowas müsste es viel mehr geben. Ein tolles Angebot im Gefängnis. Die Menschen lernen, dass man friedlich miteinander umgehen kann und tun gleichzeitig auch noch etwas für ihre physische und psychische Gesundheit! Weiter so! 😊
