Crank dat Soulja Boy

Is the whole country "Crankin' it?" Apparently, so. A recent glimpse at You Tube proves that Soulja Boy's hit song has influenced people of all ages to take part in this fun and catchy dance. The moves are made up of a few hops, leans, and the famous SuperMan dive-move that has caused Americans from East to West to "bust a move." (Oh, wait.. that's from the 90's..oops).

Hampton Roads TV reports "Soulja Boy's 'Crank Dat' became a huge hit after instructions for the dance hit the web. Since then, thousands have put their own spin on the dance causing a viral video dance-storm."

Am I the only one who doesn't know this dance? I think it's so fly! I "You Tubed" the dance and found hundreds of home-made videos. From kids to teenagers to adults, everyone's Crankin' Dat! The links below are my favorite 8 videos I found of people Crankin Dat:
