2 edits | The problem with a slow version is you don't get done watching it for the first time and think "how did he do that?". It just looks like a guy sliding his feet in a weird way.
When someone does it fast, it looks awesome. It tricks a person's brain into thinking he's walking forward while moving backward, and it takes a double take before people actually look closely at the feet and see how it's done.

| Re: [video] Ronnie Hawkins "MoonWalk" ^^ the moonwalk at the beginning of that with the spin to tip-toe move at the end is epic
BTW, go to 1:30 in this video for a better representation than that weird OP video. ;P
i think MJ was first to call it the moonwalk, instead of the backward slide or whatever... anyway

Tap dancing is really impressive sometimes.

@insightns.com | I thought MJ invented that dance step. Regardless, they are all amazing dancers and leagues ahead of what I can do. I tip my hat to them all. | |

| Re: [video] Ronnie Hawkins "MoonWalk" Jackson really invented nothing at all. He copped all his moves from the old timers as that "origins of the moonwalk" video proves. Nothing wrong with that but let's give credit where it's due. Those old timers.
Jackson was talented but had mental issues. I'm all Jackson'd out. Liked the J5 but not a Mike solo fan..... | |

YouDontKnow
| For the record, La Toya Jackson stated that Michael stole the moonwalk and his whole late '80's look from a transexual nightclub dancer in the Phillipines. | |
