Well, this just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

IF YOU DON’T know what a flashmob is, just search YouTube. They’ve been a phenomenon since 2003, where large crowds of people will suddenly break out in choreographed moves in a public space, surprising bystanders who have no idea what’s going on.

This group of 200 in Mumbai performed a dance routine in one of India’s busiest train stations, the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus. According to Wikipedia, this was a tribute to those who lost their lives in the terror attacks on November 26, 2008 in Mumbai.
