@@mr.awesome8021 It's called strobing. If you wave your hand under a strobe light, your hand is in one position, the light goes off, comes back on, and it's in a slightly different position. In order to do this move really well, you literally have to twitch your whole body in unison. So he's basically "starting and stopping" his body really fast while moving. Just like a strobe light, your brain thinks you're moving in slow motion.

[@xtypox]

First saw this when I was in high school. 19 years later, still a legend.

[@timesmash]

I think we're seeing a moment that genuinely revolutionized dance, caught on camera. Like he taught himself all this ground breaking stuff, and revealed it to the world in this moment. This is the real life history of dance, or as close as any moment could be.

[@AboutFalling]

What an all time classic. STILL the best robot I've seen to this day.

[@YouGotPropofol]

Once in a lifetime routine. Glad someone caught it on camera. Amazing.

[@EarlSchieb]

They need to do a "where is he now" on this dude.

[@BenGmanUk]

There has been. Search David Elsewhere Bernal.

[@brendanfarthing]

As of Feb 2021 he has only 4.88k subscribers. I was expecting 4.8 million. kzbin.info

He's in a storage unit getting an upgrade.

2023 and I still go back and watch this. Such an amazing dance

[@bluemorpho4941]

After all these years... Still the dopest video I've ever stumbled upon.

[@dbodooley]

I agree. This is the coolest video on KZbin.

[@johnnyson7474]

Anyone remember watching this in 2010 and then 10 years later you find it again?

[@stoneyopinion767]

This first went viral in 2001.

[@Ric_1985]

See you again in 2031 mate.

[@D0NTMESSWITHTEXAS]

Saw it on Ebaumsworld early 2000’s before KZbin existed

[@FrancoFrame]

I've been watching this video for 10 years, and despite the billions of videos uploaded here since then, I haven't seen anything like this guy yet !!!

[@MrMerxes]

Legendary clip that I could watch over and over again and still be in awe every single time.

[@mind-numbingtasks1575]

I saw this so many years ago and that guy's performance is still legendary.

[@BeyondBaito]

For anyone wondering. This dude has a dance career. Being in the Tim Burton's Alice and Wonderland and even a dancer for Michael Jackson.

I must have watched this several hundred times. I've shown all my friends and family. I've posted links left and right. I first saw it back in 2008 and seem to come back to it every year. And it's STILL just as amazing as the first time.

[@longhornglfr1069]

That nod at the end still gets me. He's like, "yeah, that should do it. My thanks."

[@simsstev]

Ope. Scuse me. Just gonna sneak by ya and do a little dance real quick if ya don’t mind.

[@CSRTLLZ]

That was when I lost it. LOL EPIC!

Still nobody better than this guy. And they've had ten years to try.

Narrow minded idiots. Look at U-Min and other Japanese poppers.

Narrow minded newbies who knows nothing else but this guy. Look at Eclypse, Remote Kontrol, Robot Boys, Salah, U-Min and many other Japanese poppers.

[@stan2880]

The video was filmed in 2001, so closer to 20 years to try

[@konnen7354]

This is the physical manifestation of Jim Carrey's thought process when preparing for a role.

[@Ogrematic]

That's perfect.

[@elchiponr1]

This brings a tear to my eye, the sheer joy and excitement of the audience, the otherwordly performance and the strange time capsule of the video itself. Beautiful and melancholic

[@T10-i5s]

I remember as a kid showing this guy to all my friends being blown away by it. Still amazing to this day.

[@Devilot91]

lol same, that slowmo move was and is still unreal

Legend has it that robot dance was so good it distorted space and time and he’s still dancing in another dimension

It's now 2025 and this is still the best robot dance to me. Congratulations my guy because you deserve it. 👌👍☝️🍾🎊🎉

[@JustinSparkable]

How he makes himself look like he's in a strobe light. Just genius.

[@Simon0]

Yeah that bit was quite cool. Plot twist: he is actually a robot..

[@s10case]

I remember watching this so long ago and it imprinted in my brain as the comparison point for all such dancing. Unmatched to this day.

[@CptVein]

The ''lag'' at 1:16 is still so goddamn impressive, it's incredible

That's what always impresses me the most ! Looks really hard to pull off.

2024 here, still unbeaten robot dance

[@MrYberr]

That random ”moonwalk” - sideways ”steps-thingy ” he does when his time is out. Says something what a natural talent he is/was.👍🏼 I’m come back to this video every half a year to see this masterpiece.♥️

I do that, too! Need my six-month fix... : )

He literally got a collab with Michael Jackson just before his death

This is an AWESOME video and FANTASTIC moves. I used to love to dance all night long, the moves were different back in the “Disco” era but we always had a wonderful time. Anyway, thank you for this enjoyable video 😀
