Harlem Shake - The Story About Harlem Shake

The Story About Harlem Shake is that the Harlem Shake is an Internet meme that went viral on YouTube in February 2013. The meme is in the form of a video that began being replicated according to a similar concept by many people.

Harlem Shake (meme) should not be confused with Harlem Shake (dance).

The art form of the meme was established by five teenagers known as The Sunny Coast Skate from Queensland, Australia. After a while, more people started to replicate the boys' video and upload their own versions to YouTube, therefore Harlem Shake became what is called an Internet meme, in this case a series of similar videos created accordingly to a similar concept.

YouTube's Trends blog attributes the meme to a video by a YouTube comedy blogger named Filthy Frank, while recognizing that the art form of the meme was established in the first video follow-up, uploaded on February 2 by The Sunny Coast Skate, five teenagers from Queensland, Australia.

An Internet meme is a concept that spreads from person to person via the Internet. The concept of a meme was defined and described by Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene, as an attempt to explain the way cultural information spreads; internet memes are a subset of this, specific to the culture and environment of the internet.
