Dancing flashmob in crowded Mumbai train station [VID]
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. ![]()

Oh yeah, absolutely anything can be expected…it’s Mumbai!
I’ve seen a couple of these in London, but the people are far more in their own world – 100′s of them – all with walkmans/ ipods listening to their own tunes rather than doing synchronised dancing. The above looks looks like they’re selling tickets for a well choreographed concert:)
