Harlem Shake哈林搖舞步
发表于 : 周三 3月 06, 2013 3:57 pmThe Harlem Shake is an Internet meme in the form of a video of various groups of people performing a comedy sketch accompanied by a short excerpt from the song "Harlem Shake". As a meme, the video was replicated by many people, using the same concept, and this rapidly led to it becoming viral in early February 2013,[1] with thousands of "Harlem Shake" videos being made and uploaded to YouTube every day at the height of its popularity.[2]
The form of the meme was established in a video uploaded on February 2 by five teenagers from Queensland, Australia known on YouTube as The Sunny Coast Skate.[2][3] The video started a viral trend of people uploading their own "Harlem Shake" videos to YouTube.[4] The teenagers' video was, in its turn, a follow-up to a video by a YouTube comedy vlogger named Filthy Frank[3][5][6] which featured a section where several costumed people danced to the song "Harlem Shake" by Baauer.[7][8]
