Where the Hell is Matt?
 
I love this!

The best thing I've seen on YouTube.
:)


Edit to add: There's also a Part 2.

pretty fun stuff

:)

Wow, some company called Spride paid him to go all around the world to do that! Who is Spride, and why did they have him do that? Well, advertising I'm sure, but.......

Gemini Cricket 07-09-2006 09:58 AM

I'm not sure what Spride is, but I just saw an interview with him saying that he saved up money to travel around the world. He went to 55 different countries. He works on computer video games for a living. :)

RStar 07-09-2006 06:20 PM

Well, how ever he got there, that's cool!

I wonder how long it took to go to all those countires?

I love the video....there's something inspiring about it.

You can read about him at www.wherethehellismatt.com .

This looks like a series of Travelocity commercials. Is he the new gnome?

Gemini Cricket 07-10-2006 09:56 AM

I get to the part where he's dancing on that rock and I just cringe. Get down, Matt! Get down! :D

I like watching this clip because it's joyous. I don't know if that makes any sense, but that's why I watch it over and over...

The song's good, too.

Freaky Tiki 07-10-2006 01:37 PM

That was really cool. I want to do that now.

RStar 07-10-2006 06:35 PM

Thanks for the link CP. Answered a lot of questions.

He got tired of his job, so he quit to travel. He said it was cheeper to travel than to stay at home paying rent, auto insurance, and parking tickets (he gets a lot). He posted his trip on his website, then someone said he should dance in them. The first version was born.

Then Spride (a gum company) asked him to do it for them, and paid his way. The second one video was born.

BTW, he has yet to go dance in Canada. He lives in Seatle. What's up with that? He could drive there one afternoon for cryinoutloud!

The video moved to here. I watched it again tonight and teared up. It's so wonderful.

I'm waiting to hear the news story about the kid who tried to impersonate Matt at that location and died and now his parents are suing Matt...
