In September 2012, a group of fashionable lifeguards in California, USA, were extremely happy but sad. They were all fired after filming a "horse dance" short film at the swimming pool where they worked.
Fourteen lifeguards at the El Monte Municipal Swimming Pool in California filmed a 2-minute short film in which they danced the "horse dance" in a creative way in the swimming pool and in the office. They uploaded the video to the video sharing website YouTube late last month, and as of September 10, 2012, it had been viewed by more than 280,000 people.
Unexpectedly, the swimming pool management staff believed that they were "using public equipment for personal use" and fired all 14 of them on September 5, 2012. The incident caused an uproar, and some netizens launched a petition to support the incident on Facebook. [3]
"Gangnam Style" was originally a satire on the current Korean people's emphasis on materialism and appearance. PSY compared "Gangnam" to Seoul's Beverly Hills. This MV became popular on YouTube and was uploaded from July 2012 to September, with more than 120 million views.
Action breakdown: Half squat, wrists together. Take one step to the left, one step to the right, and three more steps to the left, repeating the exchange. "Uncle Psy" went to the United States, and Britney Spears also learned this move.
This action is very demanding on the knee joint, because you have to squat half-squat all the time. This action appears most frequently in the MV. If you follow the full set of actions, the pressure on your knees will still be quite large. I tried it myself once and was sweating profusely. If this action is repeated too many times, the impact on the joints will be similar to that of mountain climbing. Continuous flexion can cause wear and tear on articular cartilage and damage to the tendons and ligaments surrounding the joint. People who have suffered from synovitis are especially not suitable for this action.
