DeRose says he learned to moonwalk from watching Michael Jackson songs on YouTube. He said he came up with the idea while on a previous trip to Ireland.
“It started on a previous trip to Ireland when I was getting my photo taken in front of a castle,” DeRose explained. “Instead of just standing there looking awkward, I started moonwalking and it actually turned out pretty cool. So when I started this big Europe trip I started moonwalking every place we went.”
The young man “sometimes” felt it was “weird” moonwalking across all these famous places in Europe.
“I mean look at the video, I was in some pretty crowded places doing this,” he said. “One time a guy selling selfie sticks started moonwalking with me but I’m pretty sure he was just trying to get me to buy one. I think you can see him in the video.”
So, at this point, you are probably wondering how DeRose pulled off his video to the beat of Michael Jackson songs.
“I used my iPhone for the whole thing,” DeRose said. “My buddy, who was on the trip with me, took a shot of me from the exact same distance away every time. Then I used the iMovie app and mashed them all together in one second clips.”
