Loading...YouTube is officially 10 years old! As a celebration of this momentous occasion, YouTube has released a couple playlists dedicated to telling the story of YouTube’s viral hits, from Gangnam Style to the Giant Mutant Spider Dog. All these videos make up YouTube’s history, and not many videos define YouTube’s past much more than Judson Laipply’s mega-viral video, The Evolution Of Dance.
So, for today’s featured video, I thought I’d refresh you on what videos made Youtube the awesome platform it is now. The Evolution Of Dance, uploaded in 2006, was originally just one of those talent show videos that are now ubiquitous on Youtube, but what made The Evolution Of Dance so incredibly popular was not only was this video one of the first talent show videos on Youtube of it’s kind, but the performance itself perfectly fits what makes a good viral video. Funny, nostalgic, shareable, and altogether entertaining to watch. Not only is this video a piece of Youtube history, but it is also one fun and entertaining video, certainly worth the viral success it’s gotten.
