Welcome to the first TGIF Video! Every Friday I’m going to bring you one of my favorite feel good videos on the web. The kind that put a smile on your face, maybe a tear down your cheek, and especially the kind that even if you’ve seen them before, you could easily watch again and again and send to friends to watch again and again. I hope you’ll enjoy this series and if there are any videos you’d like me to feature, please either leave a comment or send me an email!

In 2008, Matt traveled to 42 countries in 14 months, dancing with a cast of thousands to make this video. Watching it just makes me happy.

It also shows the power of doing something you love and the Universe sometimes bringing you a way to make money from that dream. Matt is currently sponsored by Stride Gum to travel the world and make videos of him dancing.

If your life could change in the blink of an eye tomorrow, what would you do?

    I loved the Where the Hell is Matt concept and movie too and was completely behind the whole thing. How fun! What great music! What a great idea. And then I saw this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogcqFaNbah4

    Susan – As it turns out, thanks to my friend Erica O’Grady, the hoax confession was a hoax. When will the madness stop! See the second confession here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVAg6YTgTn4

    I loved the video. It had incredible energy!

    One of my all-time favorite videos, gives me goose-bumps. I had no idea about the hoax confession or about the confession of the confession. :) Glad I can still go one enjoying the video!
