The Harlem Shake is an Internet video meme that became popular in early 2013. Videos begin with an individual dancing alone in a group to the song “Harlem Shake” by Baauer before suddenly jump-cutting to a wild dance party featuring the entire group dancing when the song's bass drops. Despite what the name suggests, the videos present a wide range of hip hop dances, including the Bernie, Twerking as well as improvisations.
The Muppets produced their own Harlem Shake video, entitled "The Muppet Shake" for Red Nose Day in 2013.
