Where the Heck is Matt?

Matt Harding got the travel bug - and boy, did he travel. And danced. Badly. Well, anyhow, we think it’s some form of dancing …

In February of 2003, [Matt]quit his job in Brisbane, Australia and used the money he’d saved to wander around the planet until it ran out.

A few months into his trip, a travel buddy gave Matt the idea of dancing everywhere he went and recording it on his camera. This turned out to be a very good idea. Now Matt is quasi-famous as "That guy who dances on the internet.No, not that guy. The other one.No, not him either. I’ll send you the link. It’s funny."

The response to the first video brought Matt to the attention of the nice people at Stride long-lasting gum. They asked Matt if he’d be interested in taking another trip around the world to make a new video. Matt asked if they’d be paying for it. They said yes. Matt thought this sounded like another very good idea.

At the start of 2006, Matt left on a 6 month trip through 39 countries on all 7 continents. In that time, he danced a great deal.

Hit play to see some of the cool places he’s been or go to Link [YouTube]. My favorite is when he danced on Kjeragbolten. Don’t forget to visit his website: WheretheHellisMatt - Thanks Martin Lopez!
