On March 25, 1983, America witnessed a magical moment.
Michael Jackson, at the time, was already known as a great singer and performer. But very few people were ready for what he had planned on this day.
Michael Jackson was not the first person to do the dance move known as the “moonwalk” (Mike does it around the 3:38 mark above in the video).
But he did it so well, at a time when so many were watching, that it soon became known as Michael Jackson’s “moonwalk”.
After this performance, Michael Jackson continued his journey to become one of the best singers and performers of all time.
