Via Gawker, one of the coolest flashmob videos I’ve ever seen.

A large crowd of gold-panted dancers rush a crowded LA boutique and break it down to MC Hammer’s iconic 80s hit “U Can’t Touch This.”

The mob was not spontaneous or grassroots, however- AdRants reports that it was a guerilla marketing tactic to promote A&E’s new show Hammertime, detailing Hammer’s current day to day life.

Here’s a cool video of a flash mob doing the MC Hammer dance, gold parachute pants and all, at a store on Sunset Blvd. in L.A. The flash mob stunt was pulled off flawlessly and filmed as part of the promo for A&E’s upcoming reality show “Hammer Time” that explores MC’s family life.
