-The Harlem shake, originally called the albee, is a dance introduced in 1981 by a Harlem resident named "Al B". The dance was initially referred to as "albee" after his name, but later became known as the Harlem shake as its prominence grew beyond the neighborhood. The dance became mainstream in 2001 when G. Dep featured the Harlem shake in his music video "Let's Get It".

Harlem Shake,the first thing that came to my mind upon hearing this words was NOTHING!I had no idea what was that all about.Out of curiosity, I searched it on google and found videos and I watched it. And BOOM! I was surprised. It was a dance and man,it was insane!

The dance steps were crazy.In order to achieve a perfect HARLEM SHAKE video,you just have to be CRAZY!
