WTF Chinese Beach Party Dance Video!

In case you missed it, and you probably did, recently on Youtube there has been a growing popularity of these wild and funny low-budget, locally-filmed, WTF Chinese dance music videos! Think cheap Bollywood on too much caffeine. Well for this one entitled "Local Swimsuit Dance - (Chinese peasant singer dancing)", the uploader/owner of the video zuoyezhideng claims the following:



"This is a very low budget production for peasants in southwest China. All the dancers in the video are peasant singers. They usually sing funny/flirting/teasing songs to each other, which is a tradition of rural southwest China. A lot of the people in the video have hundreds of Albums and are very popular in rural southwest China."



WARNING: This is a NSFW age-restricted music video which once seen, cannot be unseen:







You can see more of these kind of WTF, funny videos on Zuoyezhideng's Youtube channel.
