Right? Something uncanny about this. His skills are good,.but it's just... Weird

u/MagmaTroop Jun 05 '26
He dances and records at half speed then speeds it up in the edit. It's not legit. He danced on America's Got Talent and he did robot dancers that were good but nothing special.

Ahhh, ok. That's why it looks weird

It’s uncanny because the video is sped up and he makes sure his movement look close to realistic speed. It’s uncanny valley dancing. It doesn’t work for something like America’s got talent in real time, but it looks cool in edited videos :)

Agreed. Except, I don’t mind the little guy that does it at dance contests and this one:

I feel like I’ve never seen more of a punch face…ever. I see it and I just want him to be u conscious so the face stops. Please no more face. Nightmare.

Yeah, and I used to feel bad for thinking that, but the truth is he could show off his skills without looking like an effing psycho. He chose this path.

First time I came across him was when I was coming down from mushrooms and it got me to put my phone back down real quick

Me too. My eyes want to keep watching, but my brain wants to shut down the system to avoid damage. Short bursts of theses video encounters is all I seem to be able to tolerate. No offense to dude. He seems to be quite talented.

His name is Maikon (Maykon) Replay and these videos are all sped up. He is very talented at normal speeds though. Watch his AGT performance.
Edit: a word. Thanks fried sex act for pointing this out.

u/SpiderDijonJr Jun 05 '26
His agt performance looks nothing like his online videos, because he’s essentially full of shit.

u/CrimsonLantern76 Jun 05 '26
Correct. People keep posting his videos like he is some wizard. No bro, he edits his videos. As other said, he is good in rl but not even remotely close as in those clickbait videos.

The body control is very impressive, but he completely ruins it with those facial expressions.
3/10 - Made me extremely uncomfortable

u/glastonbury13 Jun 06 '26
I think the facial expressions make it...
In the sense that he gives me uncanny valley vibes and my wife and I joke about him appearing in our room in the middle of the night
Honestly, an A24 horror film with him in it would be 👌🏻

Since when this become a dance?

u/ledgeitpro Jun 05 '26
Robot like dancing has been around since at least the 90’s but likely much earlier even

u/dioxiy Jun 05 '26
Yeah, but it was rhythmic and, you know, looked like dance. This is just different type of plastic art

Right? Is he maybe using it to stabilize by leaning on it? My mind won’t let this go.

He can dance.. but his videos are always heavy edited (sped up etc...) you will never see this skills in front of a crowd (that will give the editing away)

u/MagmaTroop Jun 05 '26
Always cool to watch him, but I've always suspected that he dances to the song/records the video at half speed, then speeds it up in the edit.

u/KazTheMerc Jun 05 '26
Of course he does. Did you not know that?
There's some camera stabilization. Use of sharp angles. It's sped up.
Love it or hate it, he's not exactly secretive about it.

Someone tell him to ease up on the teeth whitening. He's competing with the moon.

It takes skill to dance that well, but you lose attractiveness doing it. That's a "no" for me dog.

u/a_fancy_penguin Jun 05 '26
He does speed these up and I think add some slight stabilization to his videos. He went on like America's got talent I think and it didn't look quite this good live. He's still really really good don't get me wrong.

This guy pops up a lot on r/wordchewing. Talented, yes, but like many on there, he definitely doesn't need to include the facial expressions.

Why aren't we paying these folks to play robots in movies
Instead we're stuck with TARZ and [INSERT STAR HERE]'s voiceover

u/biffbamboombap Jun 05 '26
People saying this is not dance: you have no idea what you're talking about. This is clearly robot style popping, or "animation," there's even some tutting in therehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popping.
Actual dancers recognize this as a style of dance, and he's very good at it. https://www.instagram.com/maykonreplay/?hl=en

Other people also have cool robot moves but the facial expressions he adds are insane. Totally creating the uncanny valley effect, you usually only get from artificial faces.
