That moment when you go "Oh shit, that's Harold Nicholas of the Nicholas Brothers" and you realize somebody's about to get schooled.
One of the greatest scenes in all of cinema.
In order, Arthur Duncan, Bunny Briggs, Jimmy Slyde, Steve Condos, Harold Nicholas, Sandman Sims and of course, Sammy Davis Jr. All masters of the art and still making it look easy in their 60s and 70s.
Is Harold Nicholas one half of the famous Nicholas Brothers from way back?
@@Winterstick549 yep.
I remember seeing this movie in the theater. I wasn't interested in tap dancing but loved Sammy Davis, Jr. I found it to be an amazing movie and recently started getting tap dancing videos in my recomendations. I'm becoming a fan.
Thanks for naming everyone in the scene!! I love this so much!
@@coraggio93 They did it again a few years later at the MDA Telethon. ruclips.net/video/lfRk7nukFx8/видео.html&ab_channel=MDATelethon
The saddest part is these men are all gone now, and they didn't ever really get the recognition they truly deserved.
I agree
Also gone are Gregory Hines and Suzanne Douglas. 😢
Wow🫡
" Thank you so much
for all the wonderful
memories , Truly a
entertainment that never ,ever goes away
never :) FORGOTTEN.
Be at peace ✝️
you all have given us
so much joy. 🙋♂️
On the contrary they absolutely got their flowers while they were still living
Possibly the best "Step aside, kid and let US show you how it's done." scene ever filmed.
so true!! this film is maybe for one just another dance film, but for those who know it is SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!
Indeed
This scene was wonderful.
💯
Bless their hearts!!!
BRings tears to my eyes. Todays generation has no idea of the greatness in this scene.
Thankfully I do.. Sammy the man
That's a remarkably popular and commonplace blah blah blah. Such a hipster thing to say, every generation.
You never lied😢pure untarnished & incorruptible talent
❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢😢 truly
Absolutely.
It's crazy that Savion Glover is the only one still alive.Everyone else from this film has passed away. I'm so happy to have been born in the 80s and was able to watch this movie at 6yr old
Hooked on (Savion Glover) this brother since Sesame Street cameo when I was I kid! Great Tap!
My 6 year old granddaughter put on her tap shoes and (tried) to tap along with the old guys. She started tap at three years old and LOVES it!❤
This was in 1989 and Sammy Davis Jr passed the following year...they ALL still had legs! I miss Gregory Hines.
RIP Mr Hines. You are greatly missed.
Gregory Hines did the world of tap dancing a favor by making this movie and bring lots of the GREAT tap dancers together for this fabulous emotional type of good entertainment ! ! !
"I ain't challenge nobody..."
"Oh, YES YOU DID..."
That's the YOU MESSED UP moment...
7 of the best dancers in the world in one room!!!!
That’s greatness!!!!
This film is maybe for one just another dance film from the dance film era, but for those who know it is SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. It is a masterpiece involving true legends at that time.
and the importance is that all those legends would be brought together, their varying legendary styles all memorialized on film for us to witness forever more.
It's awesome that Gregory Hines got to do a movie with some of legends just like Eddie Murphy with the comedy greats in "Harlem Nights". One of my favorite scenes ever...CHALLENGE
That's what I said.
I agree 💯%. I can't wait to watch both movies with my kids.
You ALWAYS show respect to Old School.
1:55 "Bend those legs, Arthur. Bend 'em! That's it, baby!" Happy 88th birthday, Arthur Duncan. Keep proving Gregory Hines wrong, him saying you ain't got no legs.
Some of the BEST tappers of the 20th century, AWESOME movie...
Sandman in the corner 👂🏿 Ear hustling😂 the greatest legends of tap in one scene
Gregory Hines is such a great actor because he has to sit there like he is not impressed by not just himself but these legends
One of my favorite scenes in any movie ever. Absolute magic
This will always be my favorite movie dance scene. Gregory Hines plus all these legends? YES!
When Sammy THROWS THAT CANE, DONE DEAL!!!
and when he gets caught, "gimme my cane!" LOL
I have never seen any tap look so freaking cool. Amazing
It's crazy how almost everyone in this video is no longer with us. 😔💔🙏🏾
Just SICK!! I always loved this movie. Saw this in the theater and stuck with me since. I'm only 28, but can appreciate that we are seeing ALL TIME Tap legends. Royalty in that world. I love the way the movie really was a tribute to true tap. We now act as if it is so low form of minstrel exercise, but it was THE dance of true dancers...Nicholas Brothers were the dopest!! If you haven't seen it do yourself the favor
Damn 😢u probably 40 now huh😂
@@atibarodriguez2.0 this was my Brother's post...he died at 29...but sure he would have been 41 #math
AMEN!!
@@kudabeen damn 😳, srry bro ,
The best of the best!!!
What a treat to watch these men tap! RIT
Rest in Tap!
The only thing more awesome than the pure talent and genius of these men is the absolute joy they show when they use that talent. And a true passing of the torch- from these men to Gregory Hines, the greatest of his time, all while grooming the boy who followed Hines and carved his own legacy in Savion Glover
To think this would the last time these legends will be together doing what they love. ❤
They made every moment count
Harold Nicholas was 68 when he did that split. Please watch Jumpin' Jive w Cab Calloway & the Nicholas Brothers in 1943 Stormy Weather film. Baryshnikov, Gregory Hines, Fred Astair, said it was the greatest dance sequence ever on film. Savion Glover said it would take CGI to repeat what they did.
Before Savion Glover finally became the goat, The Nicholas Brothers should have been universally recognized as the greatest dancers of alltime.
@@farrellcityking1honestly that is true and to bring it further in the Nicholas Brothers I forgot which one said that Eleanor Powell is truly the greatest tap dancer alive. Goes to show how masters respect each others art and honestly, I think Powell is truly the best but that’s my opinion.
@@wargamelarpdump2, Ann Miller?
Absolutely amazing, the floor was smoking with all of that talent ❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
🧨 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🧨
Hahaha I said the same thing lol they cooked his ass on the floor 😅
Walking into a room of old men who all wear tap shoes around like they were just their normal street shoes, you would be wise to shut up and not give them a reason to break one off in you!
It's the pure joy that gets me. You know they would be having just the same amount of fun with no cameras around to film them.
This scene never gets old.
This whole movie was a masterpiece it's terribly underrated and it has some of the best talent I've ever seen in a film. I'm glad it was made Gregory Hines was a great dancer and actor and to have Sammy in it too. Wow
Unfortunately, everyone of these masters are not with us anymore, including the great Gregory Hines. It breaks your heart.😢
There's absolutely no tension in any of them! This is phenomenal! I mean, I would expect nothing less from these men, but it is amazing to see such rhythm being made without any holding anywhere! Ugg! Stunning!
Here in Russia in 1989 (USSR) this film was also shown in cinemas. I went to see it 5 times when I was a teenager. This is a wonderful film. This scene is one of the best I've ever seen in a movie.
The first dancer Mr. Duncan spent nearly 20 years dancing on The Lawrence Welk Show.
A beautiful moment in cinematic history! Sammy Davis , Gregory Hines and all the heroes of Tap!!
All those wonderful souls brought so many smiles to the people. God bless
Arthur Duncan doesn’t get enough credit for being such a talented hoofer!
Indeed. We lost him in January of 2023. RIP ruclips.net/video/g-jXvsCdjE8/видео.html
I luv how Gregory was younger but still could keep up with the old cats 😍🔥. From a certain angle they look like they was shouting lol they took it to church the way they was clapping 🤣 👏 and Bunny's face at the end is hilarious 😅
My roommate and I just watched the tap dance episode from Psych. “That looks fun!” “You want to see some tap dancing. Let me show you some tap dancing.” Went straight to this video as an introduction to some real dancing. What I love about this scene is you get to see in one video how distinct each of their styles are comparatively. How fun it must have been to sit back and observe all these legends socialize and share.
3:09 WAHOO!!! Now that's a ice skating shuffle right there. Let Slyde, Big Jimmy. YEAAAAA!!!
Top 3 of all time movie scenes, never get sick of watching this.
Tap!! One of the greatest arts we ever invented!!
Wrong.
It was the Irish
The amount of talent in this one scene is just amazing to see. I have never seen anything like it. Sammy made it look like child’s play. Incredible.
Historic performance.
Watched this movie with my late father (1938-1994) and i a lighty at 15/16 remembered how amazed i was to see the young gun (HiNeS) get outshined/outclassed and outdanced by the great old-timers.
I was smiling uncontrollably from ear to ear with him seeing how the greats showed off their skill and talent and will be remembered by the younger generation for an eternity.
It brought joy to my dad's eyes and he wasn't one to bring to joy easily (him being an old-time teacher/principal and strict disciplinarian)!
It brings with it sadness but great memories and one i hope to share with my son (my only child)!
Just the way the Sun, shines in thru the window at their feet, let's you know even the atmosphere knew it was in the presence of Legends.
Finally this scene has been uploaded in good quality! This scene is absolute movie magic!
SAMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
at a loss for words...
Went to the theater to see this movie and I have to say, this scene is one of the greatest scenes ever caught on film. There’s a level of talent here that may never be seen again. And to think, the greatest dancer ever was just a kid in this scene, watching all the legends showcase their abilities. AMAZING!
One of the greatest scenes in film and one of the best I’ve ever seen
LEGENDS IN ONE ROOM!!!
OUR CHILDREN NEED TO SEE SUCH GREATNESS
THANK YOU!
I have always loved this movie and this has been my favorite scene I feel like this movie was so underrated and such a tribute and wow for them to all be together for Gregory Hines when he was at his prime and acting to be with the legends I still get goosebumps when I see this
Watching this again in 2024 smiling. So grateful that these guys were put on film!! Especially at this point in their lives. Phenomenal!
Don't underestimate the elders; they have more years and experience under their belt.
The best scene in the entire movie Gregory Hines, Sammy Davis Jr, Sandman, Harold Nicholas, even young Savon Glover, tap dance legends. we come from a greatness of talented people we can't let this die. We got to show how this dying art form to our children and grandchildren.
ALWAYS RESPECT THE ELDER PERIOD
ADORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS SCENE START TO FINISH RIP Sammy Davis Jr. Gregory Hinds and the entire cast of Tap.
Whole lot of incredible talent in that lil room, these hoofers are epic.
Pure talent much respect!❤side note Harold Nicholas DID THAT!
All the premier tap dancers in this movie even at their ages, made it look TOTALLY fun n easy, but I had this movie on VHS, n even though I was young, I still would rewind this particular section over n over again trying to emulate all these ab fab older dancers steps, n it was NOT Easy, but very hard work n also quite fun. My Ballet 🩰 teacher, Mr. Louis Ravenal, was giving me extra lessons after class in the secondary practice studio room, in soft shoe n tap incorporated with my Russian Ballet School training!!!! That was in the 1970's n up to the middle 1980's, when I embarked on my exotic dancing career around the Detroit area at bars n theatres n in burlesque!;;! With my earlier training I was able to incorporate all different types of dance n styles into my Rock n Roll persona, as "Electric Liz" n " Heavy Metal Liz" which I was known for at that time period.!!! Loved it all so totally n miss it immensely, as the old age n fibromyalgia set in n limited me!!!! Love seeing these blasts from the past,!!!! Thank you for posting n making my night 🌃🌉!!!
Even after all of these years,.....I still miss Gregory Hines!!! What a very talented young man he was!!!😢😢
How have I not seen this movie?! Thank you for posting the clip
Amazing seeing the old masters at work! Absolutely PHENOMENAL scene!
Bravo!! All of the greats together. An honor to watch and should be teaching moment for all.
Seeing this again make s me laugh and cry at the same time, GREAT TALENT!!! Nobody can touch these guys anymore. Don't forget the great women of tap too!!
The only reason I hit the LIKE is because there is not a LOVE button
I love this movie. RIP Hines and Davis. You are sorely missed. Both great actors and dancers.
I remember seeing this as a kid this was one of my movies back in the day. This and five heartbeats! Lol
A room full of masters!
How effin cool would it be to be in this group of young men
These cats are super cool
Hats off to them all
I've never seen this before--- and it brought me SO much joy. This was greatness.
Sammy Davis Jr made it look effortless!
I recognized Mr Nicholas, Mr Davis & Mr Hines. EVERYONE IS MAGNIFICENT!!
Man this is a beautiful classic in black history
What talent, what grace. Blows the mind.
This scene was one of the first times my mind was blown as a kid on several levels-thanks for posting-
i have this movie on tape. i put in once in while just for this scene alone.
He had the World in the palm of his hands & feet at one point.
The past.
Don't EVER DISRESPECT THE O.G'S!!!
Legends
One of my favorite movies and one of the best challenge scenes EVER!
Loved this movie, and I loved the Broadway play "Bring in da noise/Bring in da funk!"
Watching artists enjoy their craft is always great especially when they've reach such high levels.
Cinematography and lighting is superb. Black excellence
So much black excellence in this scene shoutout to legends who paved the way for us
This just blows my mind, respect to all. And Thank you. My 88 yrs old acquaintance is in awe of how these guys can move like that at their respective ages , so am I.
This is my favorite scene of the movie, real life tap dancers on screen together.
Fantastic! 👍👌😉

My hat is off, and I bow to these true masters of dance. All of them have left us, but their memory will live on for a long, long time.
I saw this movie in the theater and it was a treat.
Having watched those men in their prime day movies just flying through the air & seeing them still light it on fire in their elder years just divinity on earth.
This is SO amazing... I can watch it over and over!
Legendary
