I thought Neil Armstrong did the first moonwalk?

Carlos Garcia says:

People here talk a lot of crab. I knew this for 15 years ago. Jeffrey
taught mike how to do the moonwalk. Mike said he learned it from who ? Kids
? Lmao. #1 mike always used to play mind games with the press. #2 I like
Mike moonwalk better than anybody. He took it to another level. But jeffry
was the one who taught him. as a matter of fact. Almost the entire Smooth
criminal video dance choreography is from jeffry. He was hired to do the
smooth criminal choreography. Which was very impressive as well.

MrSpideryfingers says:

Whatever.. but Michael was smarter and smoother 

Joshua Bruda says:

Michael Jackson named it the moonwalk and he did it better than the
original so to me michael Jackson made the dance

Rosaboo says:

That’s why people need to learn history. Neither Michael or Jeffrey created
it…yet they want to take credit for it. LMAO

Reynelle Diaz says:

First of all in Moonwalk michael said some kids tought him how to do it.
All he did was improve it

Kyle Carpenter says:

Bill Baily 1955 at the apollo… He moonwalks off stage at the end of his
performance… So.. unfortunately for this guy… It was not a new move for
which was ” Debuted ” on soul train…. “Watch and learn from the greats..
and become greater..”.. Michael Jackson

little mix says:

Bill bailey did it first 1955

Bonnie Lynn says:

Interview from Jeffrey Daniels who was close friends with Michael for 20
years
I was dancing on the Soul Train, a TV show. Little did I know that Michael
was watching me. I became one of his favourite dancers. I didn’t know that
until we started working together. At that time, it was a big pleasure
working with him; I used to pinch myself to know if it was real. You didn’t
get to see Michael unless he was on TV and here I was, sitting one on one
with him. It was a big deal. He was a superstar. He had always been a
superstar even before ‘Thriller’. For me to have the opportunity to work
with him was one of life’s greatest pleasures. I was so humbled and
honoured about it. At the same time, he was humbled to work with me because
I was his hero and I didn’t know that. That was why we worked together for
such a long time.

castineyra13 says:

sorry to be that guy, but what is the song in this video? and the one
heard in the last second or so of this video.

Benjamin Greigg says:

He didn’t learn it from him, in his auto biography Michael said he learned
it from kids on the street plus who cares who started it Michael masterd it

Gfggfcffgggvtf

Rachelle Tregear says:

What documentry 

Falana Jerido says:

Jeffery did it better however Michael made it life he Michael

Tina Lauderdale says:

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…………….. HARD BUT ILL PRACTICE
UGHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Falana Jerido says:

Bonnie Lynn u are bles

Vince Curry says:

don’t know why people make a big deal on who started what, Michael never
said that he discover the moonwalk nor did he say who he learned it from..
the fact is the man made it look good, it help Thriller sell 60 million
records and thats that!! every dance moved michael done it was choreograph
by someone else so stop hating and crying and complaining people

Gweapon01 says:

He didn’t even mention Michael “boogaloo shrimp” “turbo” chambers. Whos
backslide and sidw walk and moonwalk was taught to mj

MajinBadat says:

The moon walk was being done in the 1930’s and 40’s so this is not its
first time on record.

XIRTAMYLNOEHTMAI says:

Mj does it better than anyone. he does it so good it makes you want to
believe he started it. just like the other Mj played basketball so good it
made you want to believe he started it. lol

lacka ja kane says:

Michael only did the moonwalk, originally known as the bkackslide, in one
of his official music videos… can anyone guess? he sort of remixed the
moonwalk tho when he did it

karl bernz says:

fcuk mj !

Otis L Griffin says:
cw meyer says:

yes and you say the same comment that everyone else says…he perfected it
he perfected it he perfected it blah blah blah….there were alot of guys
that did it just as good but because of of MJ’s popularity and the millions
watching on that faithful day in 1982 it became a sensation.

juan braseas says:

You should see the Michael Chambers he does the moonwalk on street perfect
(: and you can see he does the Usher glide

gotham61 says:

This clip is from 1979. By 1982 (still a year before MJ did it live)
Daniels was much improved. Go to 1.58 in this video. watch?v=END_WYdf8pw

Anne Hamilton says:

M.J’s moves were still more smoother than J.D.’s

John Dough says:

MJ is great, buy be a man and give JD his respect, MJ admired his skills,
JD was the choreographer of many of MJ’S videos and taught MJ many of his
moves, just because you love MJ doesn’t mean that you have to hate anyone
that may be just as good or even better.

Lydia Iglesias says:

michael jackson didn’t want anybody to teach him how to dance!

XgenDaNcEs says:

Yeah he was proven innocent, the kid had to describe what Michael’s body
parts looked like and MJ had to go through a strip search and the kid
described completely wrong, his autopsy even proved it too. The police
searched his house for weeks and found nothing. The chandlers were poor and
only sued MJ for the money. Chandler himself committed suicide like i said
before. How the fuck do you think MJ would hurt a child? He went on an
entire tour to help save starving children, are you mental?

Jennifer Davidson says:

You people are going crazy about this someone did the moonwalk Michael say
and leaned so shut up

TheFridyone says:

The First Moonwalk – Bill Bailey

Jennifer Davidson says:

Saw

paygi110709 says:

Not only influences…he learn an copy from others, fuck he give money to
this guy for the moonwalk lesson. La toya say confirn it.

Alex James says:

I SAW A VIDEO OF BLACK KIDS DANCING ON THE STREET DOING THE MOON WALK , THE
YEAR WAS 1925 ( IT WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS MOVE ) IT WAS A SILENT FILM
OF COURSE AND THEY DIDN’T MENTION WHAT CITY THEY WERE IN , JEFFREY
McDANIELS ALSO DID THIS MOVE ON SOUL TRIAN WITH SHALIMAR DOING IT H-E-A-D
STAND MOVING BACKWARDS , I NEVER SAW ANYONE DO IT THAT WAY SINCE , THEY
SHOULD SHOW THAT VERSION OF IT …….

MJJSmoothCriminal says:

Or this guy could be lying.

Jordancemj says:

Michael Jackson perfected the moonwalk because honestly the first was
pretty crappy compared to Michael’s.

thedon360 says:

Fact: Brown people invented the moonwalk / backslide and perfected it. Case
closed.

cw meyer says:

yes but not in this way and nobody never said that Bill Bailey DIDN’T do
the moonwalk so you don’t have a premise for your argument.

Malcham7 says:

Wow, so that’s where it came from

BADBOYRICO21 says:

NONE OF YOU ARE CORRECT…MJ PAID MICHAEL “BOOGALOO SHRIMP” CHAMBERS $1000
AN HOUR TO TEACH HIM…I KNOW BOOGALOO ALSO MJ BOOK HE TALKS ABOUT HIM..

portlandrbc says:

So now the kids from the street have grown up. This guy could be one of the
kids.

Grim Fury says:

I thought MJ learned the moonwalk from Boogaloo Shrimp aka Michael Chambers.

Blue Crush says:

Moonwalk does look better with a Afro though..lol

John Dough says:

oh and he learned the spin from the old tap dancers that could do it just
as well as MJ.

Shownon says:

0:53 AHAHA!

paygi110709 says:

I never say he stole somethig…Im just. sayin he in not the great dancing
genious than everybody thinks he was.

XgenDaNcEs says:

Holy shit its like im talking to a broken record… did you even read what
i said you blind fuck? MJ never hurt a child, there is proof, PLENTY OF IT!
if you think that i am wrong, well then why dont you prove that your right?
Now this is the part where you repeat yourself again because there is no
proof lol. Stupid illuminati dipshit xD
