Harlem Shake!

There really is no exact question as to "why" people do the Harlem Shake.  It is basically just something to do for laughs and giggles.  The Harlem shake first started in Harlem in 1981.  However the a new version of a song was created in 2012 by Baauer.  Soon after that, videos of random dancing were made to the videos in early 2013.  I don't really think its actually "funny," however the actual part that is funny about it is how somebody may dance in the video.  I probably would participate in a Harlem Shake, just for the the fun of it, and because I like to dance.  I don't think the Harlem Shake is actually that cool, just because there's no talent behind it.
