Jul 10, 2020 by apost team
Making TikTok videos can be challenging, frustrating, or even impossible. However, for most of the global fan base, the real gem is in the process of creating TikTok videos.
For one Irish family, the time was spent learning a new TikTok dance to 14 seconds of the song "Blinding Lights." One content creator decided to take everyone on a tour of his dad learning a new dance.
Tadgh, along with his father, Derry Fleming, siblings and mother, committed their time to learn and teach, mostly Derry, a new TikTok dance. The Tiktok dance is to a fourteen second sound from the hit song, “Blinding Light.” To everyone’s surprise, popular does not necessarily mean easy. The TikTok content creator spends an excruciating amount of time to teach his dear father the right moves to execute the dance as a family. His failures are perhaps what makes him the best sport in the world.
The TikTok content creator, his two sisters, and mom quickly learn the song's dance patterns. It is now up to Tadhg to teach his father all the moves that complete the fourteen-second dance. He slowly shows Derry the right steps to allow his father to appreciate and memorize them. These moves are complicated and involve the use of a lot of energy. At some point, the dancers have to incorporate lots of toe moves plus a bit of air swimming to complete the challenge.

What was supposed to take a few minutes to a couple of hours, turned out to be days. What resulted from the process was a number of different dance videos. The beauty of it all is that Derry somehow found a way to ruin the dance pattern in every one of them.
The content creator's father doesn't seem to get any of the instructions of the dance right. Even simple moves that were learned quickly by the other members of the family prove difficult to Derry. Tadhg dedicates the video's length and the difficulties encountered to the lack of cooperation between his father's feet.
Watching the video will prove every single second of the 10-minute clip to be worthy of your time. You get to travel into the world of Derry, who is obviously the best of all and marvel at his dedication. The entire video is full of Irish accents, ridiculous clothing changes, and so many shouts to restart the song, it will have you stuck to your screen.
The laughter is also guaranteed to flow smoothly, as you watch one of the greatest human moments of a family stuck together during isolation. The family takes their dancing to the yard where the magic happens. However, the father takes more time to complete the sequence and, in the process, gives the world something to laugh about.
Let your family and friends see the beauty and struggle of a TikTok video then provide us with feedback on what they all think. Also be sure to pass this on to others!
