Flash mobs are a creative and entertaining social concept. The amount of dedication, focus, and practice required to put a flash mob performance together is nothing short of phenomenal. What makes them even more awesome is that as technology improves, more and more impressive performances continue to show up on social media to keep us entertained.
Take, for example, this fantastic flash mob created by 2ID, a Dubai-based performance studio that specializes in spontaneous and public performances.
This is one video you have to see! It is absolutely one of the best flash mobs ever recorded. The people at the airport were blown away by it!
When the fun begins, you see several ladies dressed as flight attendants descending on the mall escalator. When they reach the floor, suddenly music begins playing, grabbing the attention of the shoppers. Then the “flight attendants” break into an energetic dance routine. The crowd of onlookers claps as the smiling group of flight attendants begin dancing.
Suddenly, the music changes to the up-tempo “Moves Like Jagger”, and the group of dancers ramp up the energy.

The spectators, who are already enthralled, become even more excited and begin cheering when several "regular" people step out of the crowd around them and join in the dance routine! They move in perfect sync with the other dancers.
As more dancers join the group, delighted onlookers begin to realize that a flash mob is forming. In a flash mob, it is important for each dancer to perform their part of the routine perfectly. A single misstep will throw off everyone's hard work and choreography, and the entire show will be ruined.
People come from all directions to join in the fun and excitement - even running down the mall's giant staircase! Many of them join in the performance.
When the group of people running down the staircase reached the floor, the music switches to a popular hip-hop tune and the dance routine changes.
The newcomers begin breakdancing, performing spinning handstands before leaping to their feet and busting out some impressive freestyle dance moves.
Suddenly, a breakdancer wearing an eye-catching green blazer leaps from a block and joins in the dancing. There is now an impressive-sized group of dancers. The Pop anthem “Party Rock” by the band LMFAO explodes from the sound system, and the dancers’ moves flow perfectly into the new beat. The spectators are delightedly filming the performance with their cell phones.
When the music changes again, much to the surprised delight of the onlookers, a group of young boys appears and joins in the flash mob!
By now, a large number of people are taking part in the flash mob. Amazingly, every single dancer performs their part perfectly, never missing a single step! It is hard to even imagine the amount of practice it took for this group of dancers to perfect and synchronize their dance moves. It's difficult enough for a small group of people to perform a dance routine anywhere near a perfect level. To see this massive group of individuals pull off a performance of this magnitude, not just to one song or even one genre but rather to several different types of music and styles of dancing, is absolutely unbelievable. It truly boggles the mind.
Several people who recorded the flash mob performance uploaded the video to YouTube, where to date it has been viewed nearly 15.5 million times and has garnered more than 66,000 likes.
Not surprisingly, the video of the incredible dance performance quickly went viral. The comments left on the video make it clear that this was an unforgettable performance. Several people said it is the best dance performance they have ever seen. The studio behind the performance, which was done at behest of Dubai Airport, is 2ID.
Seeing is believing. Words cannot do this airport flash mob dance performance justice. Do yourself a favor and check out the video. You'll want to tell your friends and family about it too. It's simply amazing!
