The judges on the popular “So You Think You Can Dance” TV competition were unprepared for the body popping moves of Robert Muraine. He is a 20 year old street “popper” from Los Angeles, California where he is known as Mr Fantastic.
There were gasps and several “Omigods” as Muraine went through his extremely flexible and unusual moves dancing to “It’s Me Snitches” by Swizz Beatz (instrumental).
He is probably double jointed or hypermobile which means his joints can stretch further than normal. Robert Muraine has gone on to do a commercial for IKEA Canada.
