Comedian posing as Irish dancer joins breakdancers on New York subway - VIDEO

Comedian Tyler Fischer doing an "Irish jig" on an NYC subway

Running into break dancers on a New York City subway is nothing for most native New Yorkers to bat an eye at. However, for the break dancers to be upstaged by a faux Irish dancer?
Comedian Tyler Fischer stole the spotlight from some break dancers on a subway recently when the music switched up to an Irish reel and Fleischer began to prance around the subway car.

“Look at him go! He’s a little leprechaun!” cheered on the break dancers who were presumably in on the stunt.

In our opinion the best part of this video isn’t Fischer’s fly Irish dance skills but rather how completely unphased the New Yorkers on the subway are about what’s taking place. Only in New York!

Irish dance troupe Prodijig win Sky’s “Got to Dance” – VIDEO

Prodijig

With a fusion of Irish dance and hip-hip, the impressive dance troupe Prodijig walked away with the top prize from Sky One’s British TV show “Got to Dance”.

Front man Alan Kenefick and his six colleagues won the grand prize of $396,000 (£250,000) after they received a standing ovation from all three judges on the show.

Their style of dance has clearly been influenced by “Riverdance” and according to Journal.ie, Kenefick’s first dancing memory is of trying to learn the dance moves while watching the Irish dance phenomenon on the TV. All seven members of the group were lucky enough to gain experience with Riverdance over the years, and they have clearly used what they learned there to create their own signature moves.

Here’s their finale performance:

Irish culture, Irish dance and 'Riverdance' embraced in Israeli - VIDEO

Airforce gents doing their best 'Riverdance' impression in Tel-Av

This has to be on of the weirdest clips to stumble on but also the most refreshing. From the Tel-Aviv TV series "Naor's friends" the clip shows "Israeli Air Force pilots performing Riverdance, drinking beer in an Irish pub and enjoying Irish music".

The clip is being used to promoted Israeli Film Days at the Filmbase in Dublin (November 24th - 27th).

Who knew Irish culture in Israel is considered pretty trendy.''
