This Canadian dancer recreating the most iconic Dirty Dancing scene is clearly having the time of his life
That lift in Dirty Dancing has to be one of the most recognisable scenes in film history, and Canadian social media star, choreographer and dancer Pierre-Émile Lemieux-Venne has clearly seen it many times, because his homage to it is, frankly, brilliant – and hilarious.
On his Instagram post, he wrote –
Dirty Dancing … and the famous lift!
Enjoy the performance – and watch right to the end.
Here are a few comments from Instagram users.
