Dancers from Vancouver to Beijing to Buenos Aires attempted to make their mark in the Guinness Book of globe Records for the largest number of people dancing concurrently to Michael Jackson's Thriller.
It's estimated about 20,000 people in more than 200 locations in 37 countries around the globe participate in the dance which occurred Saturday night or Sunday morning depending on where you were.
I adore dancing, I love Michael Jackson and it was a perfect chance to do both and get into the Guinness Book of World Records, said elementary school teacher Heather Shantz, 26, who had travelled several hours from her area to join about 230 people in downtown Vancouver on Saturday night.
Dance co-ordinator Graeme Lea led the crowd — all of whom had brought food and cash donations for the city's food bank in order to contribute in the event.
When we take our first step, people in China will take their first step, said Lea. The dance around the globe was co-ordinated by cellphone so all the dancers could begin at the similar time.
In Los Angeles, a enormous crowd of more than 4,000 made-up dancers gathered at the Nokia hub to do their bit.
