A dancing grandad has been caught on camera bringing a little bit of extra festive cheer to Christmas shoppers - but nobody knows who he is.
The mystery dancer was filmed throwing shapes in Middlesbrough and since being shared on Facebook, the video has been viewed more than 40,000 times, reports the Gazette.
It was filmed by Teesside University student Jessica Rose Lewis, 21.
She said: “Everyone was crowded around him.
“We stood and watched him for a while - and he still there dancing away when we walked past 20 minutes later!
“Everyone was clapping and some even walked past him and joined in as you can see on the video.
“It definitely brought a smile to my face!”.
It was around lunch time that the flat-capped man decided to show off his dance moves alongside a busker near Binns and Jessica - who is studying to be a social worker - soon posted it to her Facebook page.
“I couldn’t believe it when I saw how many times people had watched it.
“A few people shared it and that was it!”
