"Suckas Break Like Turbo And Ozone ..."

Since I'm bored at work and I missed givin' y'all a Daily Dunk on Friday, I'm posting one for my old-school heads - Turbo's dance with the broom in "Breakin'." You young bucks may have seen Ginuwine's homage to this classic scene in his "None of Ur Friends' Business" video a few years back, and more recently Dave Chappelle's parody of it on his eponymous show.

Just remember this is a low-budget movie from 1984. Not only were Turbo's moves light years beyond what most anyone outside of New York and L.A. had seen at the time, but the broom "dancing" was pretty crazy. (Spoiler: Fishing lines were attached to Turbo's fingers to achieve the effect.) And for you DJs out there, the track he dances to is "Tour de France" by Kraftwerk.
