Fayard was 50 no less when this was performed. Amazing dancers - the best tap dancers of their generation.

[@TFlexxx]

Amazing that they were still doing their dance at this age!

[@HollyLebed]

They make my heart soar. ❤️

[@MrCrowebobby]

I once heard a radio recording of Harold singing "I Double Dare You" at, I believe, 14. Would love to hear it again someday.

[@deborahflorence2332]

They could SING too!

[@jonmaas]

Bliss.

Why do they look 3 feet tall

[@jakesoriedem4747]

I see what you mean about them looking 3 feet tall. It's probably the camera lens they used. But considering that top dance platform is a 7 storied building, They look about 100 feet tall. The Nicholas Brothers are so great at dancing and singing. Have a great day J Doggy Dog

[@user-lp8gv1ys8v]

They were very short men at roughly 5 feet tall.

Lin'dos amor

[@deborahflorence2332]

Harold was a gay as a jaybird, but still great.

[@ThrillerALi]

Deborah Florence What are you talking about? Harold was married three times to three different women and had two kids.

[@livelystone9367]

@@ThrillerALi doesnt mean a guy isnt undercoverly gay tho lol 😬 Sadly

[@katherinedorsey3426]

Didn’t he marry and have a daughter with Dorothy Dandridge??

[@edwardrichtofen1252]

I'm not sure what you meant, but he was indeed happy.

[@MrCrowebobby]

It was Fayard who looked gay; whether he was or not I don't know.
