Dancing Prison Inmates

Sure you've probably seen the "Thriller" video by now, from the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC) in Cebu, Philippines. But did you know they did a bunch of other songs as well? And it's a pretty curious selection, too.

The "Thriller" video, re-enacted by more than 1,500 CPDRC inmates.


"I Will Follow Him", from the movie Sister Act.


Queen's "Radio Gaga", featuring excerpts of the original video and special effects.


A world record-setting 967 inmates participated in the "Algorithm March".


And, finally, "Jumbo Hotdog" by The Maskulados. The refrain, apparently, roughly translates to: "Jumbo Hotdog. Can you take me? Can you handle me?"

This is one swingin' prison...
