Chinese Hammer fucking rules, originally uploaded by mathowie.
I stumbled across Chinese Hammer tonight and fell in love with it for a thousand reasons. Just the thought of someone halfway around the world mimicking a video from 1989 in a move-for-move remake. Also, the mom on the couch crocheting, oblivious to the awesome dancing. Then I posted it to MetaFilter only to find there's a such thing as YouTube Doubler to play them side by side.
I captured the best bits in a short movie here. About 30 seconds in, things start matching up and it just keeps staying awesome for another minute or so.
update: cool, the dude has a ton of other videos (Thriller, more MC Hammer, etc)
