What Is The Harlem Shake?

The 30-second dance meme begins with one dancer moving to “The Harlem Shake” by Baauer. Halfway through, the rest of the group joins in by moving, shaking and frantically dancing.
According to YouTube trends, the meme first started gaining traction when a vlogger named “Filthy Frank” uploaded a silly video with his friends. As of February 11, around 12,000 Harlem Shake videos have been created receiving more than 44 million page views.
