Smooth Criminal school talent show performance (w/ lean!) by Jonny Cruz

Was the audio played from a Radio Shack tape recorder?

Amazing foott work.

That went a little too long...was starting to lose the momentum

Singlehandedly the most iconic dance in history

Fukn A.. Love it!!🥰

Greetings, this kid is great. Thank you. Not anyone can imitate mickael jackson.

Muzan's at it again

Perez Nancy Perez Brenda Davis Jennifer

WOW!! I never tought another person can do the same moves as Michael Jackson had!!

I always thought there was metal inside the shoes soles and a magnet under the stage. The thing he was stood on to the lean was noticeable but it takes nothing away from the preformance

Smooth Cruz, real smooth 💯👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Bro thinks hes MJ.

Seriously impressive footwork

I didn't rate it 😬 levels above anything I could do so I don't have much of an argument but it didn't look natural it looked like he agreed to do it on a weeks notice

Incredible job kid . WOW

Kid shoulda done the whole thing in the dark in front of that screen.

That young man is talented and entertaining!

You were too fast.. Felt like you were not even taking your time to feel the moment, I'm not impressed.

Damn!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

Love the guy in the white suit that takes attention away from the lean setup.

This came up in my recommended and im not gonna lie, this kid has talent and skill. MJ is not an easy person to imitate and he just crushed it. I remember watching MJ live when he was at his peak in the 80s.

That lean was dope! Can't say the same for the rest of the performance.

Johnny are you ok?

Amazing performance!!

Freeking killed it 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Im 54 and saw Michael perform this in 1999 and this was almost just as good. The doowap beginning with backlighting to silhouette the form was a nice touch,that lean was just like Michael did it.

I have seen many MJ impersonators Mr. Cruz, and I must say that you executed the lean quite well. Kudos!

Music coulda be louder

bro did not come home alone

Cool! MJ forever

I’m totally gunna learn this and do this at my middle school lol

Holy shit. It's a white dude.

2 years late, but man this is really good. MJ would be proud!

genius

Not that good.

Brilliant 👏

I grew up in the Michael era. I miss him so much. I cried for 3 weeks when he died. I really loved him. ❤ This guy is perfection. Almost like watching my Michael. 😊

I know this is 2 years old, but dude this is incredible. The movements are so sharp, just like the man himself. The fit is also awesome too. Everything about this is so good, nice work!

Found this at one in the morning, went through the whole thing and I just couldn’t stop myself from clapping once it finished. There’s nothing I could say that wouldn’t be a repetition of another persons comment, so awesome stuff! Definitely gonna revisit this and show family.

Hey Johny I really need to know how you got these lean shoes.

I know everything about it but I am trying to make my new loafers so that they can do the trick.
I am going to replace the heels, any tips?

Btw I know that loafers are bad for this but I will fix that issue, I just need the shoe to not break appart under the enormous pressure, thank you!

That was hands down the best dancing I've seen since Michael. He would be proud. Keep shining.

Next up we have Oliver who will be playing “My heart will go on” on his recorder…..

Not bad for a white guy

Michael Jackson! Thrills me everyday!

From the lean to the moonwalk, this man killed it

He’s as light on his feet as Oprah. But, he ok at imitating a pedophile.
