Dancing is a favorite past-time no matter where you are on the globe. For centuries, humans have used dance to express themselves, evoke emotion, and most of all…have fun!
It doesn’t matter if you’re watching a live performance of professional dancers or a high school event, it’s exciting to see so many people with a passion for and ability to dance.
An old saying
Surely, you’ve heard the saying
“Don’t judge a book by its cover.”
That simply means that outward appearances are often deceiving.
A good example of this is Susan Boyle. She might’ve looked like a frumpy housewife but when she opened her mouth to sing, she sounded like an angel.
Boyle told The Washington Post,
“Modern society is too quick to judge people on their appearances. … There is not much you can do about it; it is the way they think; it is the way they are. But maybe this could teach them a lesson, or set an example.”
The same applies to dance
One of the biggest misconceptions about dance is that larger-sized people can’t do it.
Even if they try, they’re clumsy and awkward. But that’s actually far from the truth.
A lot of large people can heat things up on the dance floor just as good, if not better, than those of “normal” size.
An event to remember
At one particular formal event, something happened that people couldn’t believe.
They were so mesmerized they couldn’t take their eyes off the dance floor. Well, more like they couldn’t take their eyes off the guy dancing on the dance floor.
A perfect song
Sure, there are all kinds of incredible songs to dance to. But one that just about everyone loves is “Great Balls of Fire” performed by Jerry Lee Lewis.
Considering it’s fast and furious, anyone who dances to it has to be able to do some pretty fancy footwork.
Larger than life
With guests standing and sitting around the edge of the dance floor, a beautiful woman in a sexy gold-colored dress comes out.
She’s stunning. But it’s her partner that gets all the attention. There he is, a large man wearing black slacks and a dress white shirt.
The music starts
From the second the song “Great Balls of Fire” begins to play, this guy starts to move.
Undoubtedly, people expected nothing spectacular due to his size.
But he fooled them all. This man could dance. And he dances with the best of them. Tall, short, slim, muscular… everyone!
Trying to keep up
He was so good and accurate with his feet that several times during the song, it looked as though his female partner was having a tough time keeping with him.
His size didn’t stop him one bit from pulling off some fantastic moves.
So impressive
Not only did he twirl his partner but she also twirled him.
He even spun around on one foot as though it was nothing. And boy, did those hips move.
We don’t know what his background is but somewhere, he had to have taken dance lessons. He’s that good.
He stole the show
Throughout the entire dance, people were stunned yet super excited.
He captured their attention from the second the music started and held it through the entire song.
He might be large but he was extremely light on his feet.
Such an inspiration
This video, which has now garnered more than three million views, should serve as an inspiration to people of all sizes.
If you love to dance, then get out on the dance floor. You might not be as good as this guy but who cares.
Along with being a blast, dance is a great form of exercise. Sure it benefits the body but it also does wonders for your mental and emotional health.
