This video of a guy putting his own twist on the moonwalk is going viral on YouTube.com. The late Michael Jackson popularized the urban dance move that was first seen on TV’s Soul Train.

The dude, Eric “The Candy Man” Nash gives the moonwalk his own special twist.

If you can’t view the video, Nash launches himself backwards at high speed as if he’s running the 100-yard dash — but backwards. It’s an amazing feat that was probably aided by his athletic build and the street slick with rain or ice.
