4 Amazing Global Flash Mob Videos

I have always admired flash mob.  It takes a lot of coordination, planning, and practice.  When it is "showcase", it is amazing! 

Here are my top 4 picks for flash mob videos.  They range from use of various instruments, to singing to dancing.   My favorite is the one done in the Korean Drama, Dream High.  I know it is probably staged, but I love the synchronized dance moves.
 

[ 4 ]  Flash Mob Chorus in Taipei 101, Taiwan


A great performance of popular Taiwanese and Chinese songs performed in the food court of Taipei 101 in Taiwan.

The songs performed are:
Green Island Serenade (lv-dao-xiao-ye-qu), Jasmine (mo-li-hua), Spring Breeze (wang-chun-feng) and Mountain is Green (gao-shan-qing).

The Marching Band Flashmob was performed by the TSV Lauf Marchingband complete with drummers and color guards.  The performance took place on April 27, 2013 in front of "Weißer Turm" in Nuremberg.

[ 1 ]  Dream High Flash Mob


My number 1 flash mob is from the Korean drama, Dream High (Episode #16).  It was probably staged, but it appears to be random.   There are special appearance by 2AM Jinwoon, Changmin, Seulong, missA Jia, Fei, Min.
