There are some things you can just watch over and over again, like every sexy dance sequence in Dirty Dancing... or this adorable eight-year-old's re-creation of the film's memorable finale. When the boy's mother realized her son had taken a bit of a liking to the moves on display in the 1987 movie starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey, she whipped out her cell phone and captured something you definitely need to see to believe.
Once you get over the fact that this eight-year-old has better moves than you, there's no denying this kid is destined for a future season of Dancing with the Stars. When asked about the video by Buzzfeed, the boy's mom said his fascination with dancing began after Michael Jackson died. He started watching all of Jackson's music videos and copying the dance moves. When he was four, mom posted this video on YouTube of the boy dancing to Jackson's "Thriller."
From there his obsession grew to include Dirty Dancing, a film his mom says he's only watched about 12 times. While that may seem like a lot, it's pretty amazing to see how quickly he's picked up the moves. Like c'mon -- does this moment not melt your heart or what?
Here's the final dance number from the film so you can compare. One thing's for sure -- no one will ever put this little kid in the corner.
