Just upped the video from my phone. I saw this as I went home from the DJ Yoda gig.

IT LOOKED like any other evening at Liverpool Street station, with thousands of commuters jostling to get home.

But at 7.22pm, the station's concourse was turned into a dance floor by a flash mob of more than 200 people. The group of strangers, who had been mingling with commuters, suddenly burst into dance, to the bewilderment of onlookers.

The participants, who had responded to an email telling them to arrive at the station with personal stereos, whooped and hollered as if perfectly in time with each other. They danced wildly, emitting cheers every so often.

Commuters gathered on the side to watch in amusement. Some even joined in without music of their own. The event is the latest in the flash mob craze, which emerged in London for the first time two years ago. Other events have included a pillow fight of more than 100 strangers outside St Paul's Cathedral and a mass siege of a furniture store in Tottenham Court Road.

Liked the one the other year where they all started worshipping at the new Xmas consumables at a toy store.

Santarchy still going this year? A mob of 200 pissed up Santa's would be wicked.
