That was well worth the wait.
Loved the Succah happy dance, which reminded me of just how long we’ve been waiting
I was surprised there was no DDR happy dancers, not disappointed, just surprised.
1f56I am a DDR nerdfighter. Permanently taped two mats to my living room floor. (though in Australia we call it Dancing Stage not DDR)

Agreed, this is definitely one of the best Christmas presents I’ve ever gotten. It felt so good to see so many Nerdfighters from across the globe being happy! The best part? It was infectious and I wanted to dance along even though I don’t have working speakers.
Merry Christmas everyone!
I submit that
1) ska music is ultimate happy dancing music in the world
and
2) the nerdfighters are the most awesome people in the world. i mean… the acropolis, the pyramids, and STONEHENGE!!!! you guys are so totally jokes
I second both opinions! Nerdfighters have proved their undying awesome once again, and wow, I love ska again. Russian ska? Seriously?! Well, it’s made of awesome.
That video is made of all that is awesome in this world. Hoo hah! Nerdfighters ftw!!
THAT WAS AWESOME THANK YOU FOR THAT AMAZING CHRISTMAS PRESENT!!!
Nerdfighers for the win!
(Did anyone else notice how most nerdfighters’ happy dances are actually a bit more on the side of semi-organized flailing?)
Lol, yeah!
Sooo awesome! Good dancing everyone! YDFTBA.
(you didnt forget to be awesome)
This made me so happy! Thank you so much Hank and John! Happy Holidays!
Just want to say . . . 4:15-21, BGSU CAMPUS REPRESENT!!!

Yes nerdfighters, there is a Santa Claus
and he’s a nerdfighter too.
So worth the wait!
Truly the culmination of a years work and effort to decrease work suck and increase awesome.
That video, that 10 minute nugget of pure awesome infused energy, completely charged my 2007 AND 2008 batteries!
That video just goes to show how much impact you’ve made on a small (and still growing) slice of the internet.
I truly hope you’re able to do something with the power that is this fan base in 2008. Be careful though, you have a TON of devoted followers. Use your power for good!
it’s almost too much awesome for one video.
then again, can there ever be too much awesome? i think not.
Happy Christmas guys!
This is amazing. I think if there was a level below “LOW” on the Worldsuck Index, that’s where we’d be right now.
Awesome x infinity=Happy Dance Project.
^Ha-ha, Nerdfighter math.
I saw people skanking to Ska! How COOL IS THAT! :’D
Merry Christmas!!
I’m even more full of awesome after watching this!

BRILLIANT! I love it so much. I cant get over how some one actually happy danced IN FRONT OF THE PYRAMIDS! thats just way too cool. I already posted mine as a video response! HOO HAA!
Dancing at Stonehenge? That rocks.
I was feeling rather Grinch-y today, but I think this has put me in a proper holiday mood. Thanks, guys!)
BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER.

I was smiling through wet eyes watching this. I know that the world is full of wonderful people, but seeing us nerdfighters all at once being so awesome just made it so real. I love every nerdfighter in the whole world.
Thanks for creating the place where we could meet, share and be awed by each other. And there are thousands of us not even in that video smiling at the happy dance right now. Yay.
I feel like a part of something unstoppable. A movement… a movement of awesome.

You’re all bombdiggity dancers. Merry Christmas Eve, everyone!
I wonder if the Girl near then end from Beijing hit that guy who was running towards the camera as she jumped across the screen.
I was wondering the exact same thing! I think someone needs to respond with an uncut version.

I know it doesn’t rhyme all of the time no rhyme intended but it is to te tune of Accio Deathly Hallows.
I’d never get tired of this
Eatig toilet paper and Hank’s song
You got all of Nerdfighter kind under your spell.
Doncha know Nerdfightria’s already gone
And did a Happy Dance song
Plus you’ve got ovr 10,000 subscribers.
Now do another year or go to Hell. (Just kidding not really cause then I’d be really sad and I would have to do my sad dance and it would increase Worldsuck>)
Cause I need Brotherhood 2 like Hagrid needs his Umberella
And as that day approaches my sadness grows.
Yeah Accio another year
Incendio December 31
That day’ll be like sharp fingernails on a broken Chalkboard
Woa Accio Another year.
Accio Another Year,
I’m getting kinda petrified
What would Hank do if John died
Well how do you think we’d feel if you guys stopped?
I have no confidence in theroies about Hank’ punishment
And what if Paper Towns didn’t sell?
Oh Holy Crap,
THAT WOUlD FREAKIN SUCK
And I need Brotherhood 2 like Hagrid needs his umberella
And as that day approaches my sadness grows
Yeah Accio another year
Indendio December 31
That day’ll be like sharp ingernails on a broken Chalkboard
Woa Accio Another year.
What evers up the sleeves of Hank and Johnny
I bet it has to do with vowing
To end the yearlong project once and for all.
But in the end I don’t think our gripes are gonna matter
Cause it’s over Just saying that makes me sadder
But the World is better after them.
Yeah the world is much better after them,
But still, WE NEED BROTHERHOOD 2 LIKE HAGRID NEEDS HIS UMBERELLA AND AS THAT DAY APPROACHESOUR SADNESS GROWS!!! OH ACCIO ANOTHER YEAR INCENDIO DECEMBER 31 THAT DAY’LL BE LIKE LONG FINGERNAILS ON A BROKEN CHALKBOARD,
ACCIO ANOTHER YEAR…….
bu mostly I’m just feeling sad (Have i said that) *sigh* i know this wont end real bad but I wish is didn’t have to end at all!
Cause I could care more about Brotherhood 2.0 if Missoula was my hometown and as that day approaches my sadness grows,
Accio another year.
I now i speak for everone when I say that we’ll miss you.
Goodbye Hank and John. You brought laughs that I’ll never see again, joy that I’ll never see again andmostly Friendship that I’ll never see again. This will probably be my last comment of the project as I am currently too sad to type. I guess I’ll have to watch something else next year if te site stops.
Let the legacy of Nerdfighteria, My Pants, and everyone live on.
You guys are wonderful.
Don’t forget it
And never forget to be awesome.
(Not that you have a choice.)
Hank, John…….do you realize how fantastically wonderously out-of-this-world-into-my-pants-AWESOME you guys are? You’ve changed all of our nerdfighter lives! Thank you thank you thank you! And i dread but look forward to seeing the last few days of Brotherhood 2.0. Happy Holidays!!!

BeyondTheCrystalShores
Mine made it! Yai international nerdfighters! Thanks for the unforgettable present, we all did a great job, being mocked by pedestrians while dancing in front of that Iguana was all worth it.
Who are the nerdfighters in front of the Memphis pyramid???
Holy Crap! That was freakin’ awesome!
Memphis nerdfighters FTW!!!
I love it.
ok. i’m trying to post this in the scavenger hunt thread in my pants, but i can’t log in at the moment.
I found sbtom’s clue in harvard yard.
more later when i’m not at work.
I have been a long time watcher and Russian (now living in America) as well as a Video Game Nerdfighter, and it rocked my socks to watch this and hear Distemper! I was like…wait…Nerdfighters listen to Russian music? And then I thought about it and I was like…why WOULDNT they listen to Russian Ska music? Totally wasn’t expecting that! Ill be sad to see the project ended, it has been a good year!
*oh shucks and shucks and shucks
I’m so glad to home with our own FAST internet. Thanks for all the lovely comments. Gosh, Dad 1.0 did a fantastic job editing the video. Thanks Dad 1.0
Glad to be part of it.

This was so amazing.
I wish that my birthday (which is on the first) wasn’t so close.
HipWriterMama posted this video, and I replied:
Times like these make me want a camcorder. Actually, there are many reasons why I’d like to have a camcorder, included but not limited to filming my own movies and immortalizing people, places, and moments.
I haven’t bought one for myself yet because I’m 1) frugal! and I never buy anything, and 2) because I record things in my memory instead.
Someday, I’ll actually open my wallet and buy a video camera.
Until then, I’ll continue to dance whenever and wherever - I’m a tap dancer and character/jazz kind of girl, and I came out of the womb dancing and singing - and I do admit that customers and I (hi, Angela! Haley! Nicole!) do happy dances in the bookstore plenty.
I’m not sure if my subscription info came via to you nor am I clear how to pay the $5.00.
Thanks this can be a wonderful idea if I can connect! Judy
Kudos for the great article on this area which I’m deeply interested in. Wonder if there are revisions coming up? I will set in place a book mark on this wonderful website for readings in the future. Forestville EC
I can’t say I agree with everything but it’s a great post overall.
I adore your wordpress web template, exactly where did you get a hold of it from?
1f7bI really feel other homepage creators really should take into consideration this unique webpage as an example. Definitely clean and intuitive structure, as well as beneficial articles! You are a pro here in this subject
I have learned new things through your blog post. One other thing to I have seen is that in many instances, FSBO sellers will reject people. Remember, they might prefer to not use your companies. But if you maintain a gradual, professional relationship, offering guide and remaining in contact for around four to five weeks, you will usually be capable to win a conversation. From there, a house listing follows. Cheers
Like what i seen here, it was very interesting to see and visit all the great stuff on here, and would very much recommend this site to someone else also. Great Job…
Boy, rounded 1949-1952 GM cars everywhere besides for just one similarly rounded Hudson. Wait, is the fact a white Dodge or Plymouth business enterprise coupe within the cross street driving the 1950 Chevy convertible inside the foreground?
Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having trouble finding one? Thanks a lot!|
Amazing blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you propose starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I’m completely confused .. Any recommendations? Thanks a lot!|
Great blog here! Additionally your website lots up fast! What web host are you the usage of? Can I am getting your associate hyperlink in your host? I wish my website loaded up as fast as yours lol
Hi, Neat post. There’s a problem with your web site in internet explorer, would check this… IE still is the market leader and a large portion of people will miss your magnificent writing due to this problem.
It’s actually a great and useful piece of information. I’m glad that you shared this helpful info with us. Please keep us up to date like this. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, all the time i used to check weblog posts here early in the morning, because i like to learn more and more.|
Great stuff there, many thanks. Hope you have a great wknd
This blog does not display properly on my droid - you may want to try and repair that
cheers for the advice it really helped
