Coffee, tea or ‘Shake’ - Dance craze joins mile-high club








The feds are not amused by shakes on a plane.

The FAA is investigating a Frontier Airlines flight in which passengers got up from their seats and danced wildly to film what has become a viral “Harlem Shake” video.

A clip of the stunt has gotten 400,000 views on YouTube. In it, members of the Colorado College Ultimate Frisbee team and numerous other passengers turn the jet’s cabin into a mile-high rave by bouncing and gyrating in the aisle. One is dressed in a banana suit.




The Harlem Shake spoof, which took place on a Feb. 15 flight from Colorado Springs to Denver, was organized by Matt Zelin, one of the team members.

He said flight attendants OK’d the stunt and even gave the signal to start filming by saying, “The floor is yours,” he told the Colorado College student paper, The Catalyst.

Despite this, the Federal Aviation Administration is looking into the high-altitude antics. Officials admit, however, they are not sure if any rules were broken. “That’s why we do investigations,” said an FAA source.

Over the past month, the Harlem Shake has become a worldwide dance sensation, with groups trying to outdo each other by filming versions in ever more unusual locations.
