Riverdance Flash Mob Central Station 2011

Tourism Ireland commissioned us to make this cool Flash Mob video of Riverdance and Sneaky Steppers dancers in Sydney's Central Station on St Patricks day 2011. It was a logistical challenge with 100s of dancers, 5 video cameras, and all the normal peak hour commuter hubbub. The dancers were amazing as were the great people from Tourism Ireland and Cityrail. This video has had over a million views across the various uploads. Gotta love the Irish!

❤️❤️❤️☝️🤝🌍🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️

[@tarnishedknight730]

It would be nice if one of these "flash mob dance" videos actually showed the dance. Almost all of them spend about as much time showing the crowd, or close ups of the dancer's faces bobbing up and down. Sorry to sound like a hater, but focus on the dancer's, please?

[@reic0002]

not at all Irish, very much English; but have to say, b***y brilliant!

[@anonanon3482]

[@iantitterington556]

quality of video terrible

[@lovetalx]

I love Riverdance and Michael Flatley like no other, but flash mobs are kind of annoying. People are just trying to get from point A to B and these turn into kind of traffic jams. Well done though.

[@quiltmomma5157]

No less annoying than people who walk at a snail’s pace or just stand there, blocking the way and won’t let you by. I don’t see anyone here who can’t get around the dancers or are annoyed. On the contrary, this put a little smile on their faces and lightened their way.

You must be fun at parties.
