Dancing Prisoners of Cebu, Philippines

Where else can you find prisoners dancing in the tune of Thriller or Soulja Boy’s tunes… no where else but only in Cebu City, Philippines.

I went there a couple of years back and had a chance to see them dance live.

Here’s the video that propelled them to “Stardom.”
