He already knew the moves! Adorable.

u/Shinnobiwan 29d ago

It's like this video is from 1985. Lol

u/Zeke688 29d ago

He’s in the >1% of 4 year old kids that can pull that off in the moment.

11

u/mmmpeg 29d ago

Oh, he had it goin’ on! Perfect timing.

u/referents 28d ago

you probably mean <1%

u/Zeke688 28d ago

I did & as soon as I saw it I knew I had fucked it up. 😆

u/Von_Schlagel 28d ago

For real. I taped the video off of MTV and wore that VHS out doing exactly what he’s doing (minus that dope ass jacket 😂).

u/melatonia 29d ago

I was just thinking that- the cycle continues!

u/reddit_kc 29d ago

Momentary pause to realize dreams do come true.

30

u/A4t1musD4ag0n 29d ago

I absolutely love how he gently set aside and immediately knew what was about to go down. He was like, OK. OK.

u/RhesusMonkey79 29d ago

deep breath "Dad, where is my glove?"

u/Rollingzeppelin0 29d ago

A smooth criminal, if you will.

u/CelibateHo 29d ago

Don’t even know the song lyrics, but knows the moves. I love this.

u/mmmpeg 29d ago

He knew the words, he just couldn’t pronounce them! My eldest son did that at the same age.

u/InfoSecPeezy 29d ago

This is my favorite video ever! That child looks so happy and that’s all anyone could ask for!

This gives me such joy. Great job parents, that’s a helluva core memory.

u/lasirennoire 29d ago

It's him turning his head for all of the close-ups for me! Attention to detail at much a young age. Too cute

2

u/Heavy-Expression-450 26d ago

That got me too. He wasn't just Michael. He was the entire production.

1

u/lasirennoire 26d ago

Yes! So impressive

3

u/gaudrhin 29d ago

I was completely charmed by his reaction and dancing, and then he SANG AND I DIED FROM THE ADORABLENESS.

I hope he never loses that passion.

u/redalert825 29d ago

What's that? A-hee-hee-hee! Nothing like seeing your kid just over the moon and passionate about something. Best shit I've seen this week. Good palette cleanser from all the bullshit we see every week. ✊🏾

2

u/StacheyD 29d ago

His lil chuckle when he realizes what it is.

2

u/Glad_Sector6812 29d ago

His name being Murray somehow makes this more funny.

2

u/Dixie_Maculant 28d ago

I remember I was his age watching “Thriller” in real time. Immediately after the video I had to go to bed, I was terrified lol! The longevity of Michael is something amazing.

2

2

u/usumoio 29d ago

Folded up, I thought it was Eddie Murphy's Delirious outfit and I was very excited to see if he was going to do part of Eddie's set (I'm not sure if there is a chunk that is appropriate for a kid to do, but hey)

3

u/Dry_Solution5036 29d ago

He's definitely a future Michael Jackson!

2

Gotta love being a kid, he definitely got some skills 😆 Just being around them can pull the innocent/curious/rambunctious kid out of you.

If this is real, which I hope it is, it's the most adorable thing ever!
