Cebu Prison Inmates in YouTube

Did you hear about those Cebu prison inmates and their "Thriller" dance?

I first saw it in YouTube, but just awhile ago it was also featured on Philippine television.

There are quite a number of YouTubers who uploaded the same video using their own YT accounts, but the video I'm featuring above is the version uploaded by Byron F Garcia.

I particularly enjoyed the part of the television feature where the popular inmates who danced were shown the comments posted in YouTube. It somehow made them feel more appreciated not just in the Philippines, but even in other parts of the world.

I wonder if we will start seeing more production numbers on YouTube, performed by our brothers and sisters who have been isolated from the rest of society.
