Jerusalema: The dance sweeping the world - from Angolans to Israeli monks and Irish police

  • Video report by ITV News correspondent Sejal Karia


Devised in Angola, a single dance craze has swept the globe and given us something to smile about during the pandemic.

Jerusalema is a song by South African house musician Master KG. Friends in Angola filmed themselves dancing to the hit - the moves have since been recreated the world over. From health workers to nuns to children, everyone is getting involved.

When the Swiss Police took up the challenge, it sparked a virtual dance-off with the Irish Garda.
