In order, Arthur Duncan, Bunny Briggs, Jimmy Slyde, Steve Condos, Harold Nicholas, Sandman Sims and of course, Sammy Davis Jr. All masters of the art and still making it look easy in their 60s and 70s.

The saddest part is these men are all gone now, and they didn't ever really get the recognition they truly deserved.

That moment when you go "Oh shit, that's Harold Nicholas of the Nicholas Brothers" and you realize somebody's about to get schooled.

Possibly the best "Step aside, kid and let US show you how it's done." scene ever filmed.

BRings tears to my eyes. Todays generation has no idea of the greatness in this scene.

This was in 1989 and Sammy Davis Jr passed the following year...they ALL still had legs! I miss Gregory Hines.

It's crazy Savion Glover is the only one still alive from this film have passed away. I'm so happy to have been born in the 80s amd was able to watch this movie at 6

Gregory Hines did the world of tap dancing a favor by making this movie and bring lots of the GREAT tap dancers together for this fabulous emotional type of good entertainment ! ! !

One of the greatest scenes in all of cinema.

This film is maybe for one just another dance film from the dance film era, but for those who know it is SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. It is a masterpiece involving true legends at that time.

"I ain't challenge nobody..." "Oh, YES YOU DID..." That's the YOU MESSED UP moment...

7 of the best dancers in the world in one room!!!! That’s greatness!!!!

It's awesome that Gregory Hines got to do a movie with some of legends just like Eddie Murphy with the comedy greats in "Harlem Nights". One of my favorite scenes ever...CHALLENGE

Harold Nicholas was 68 when he did that split. Please watch Jumpin' Jive w Cab Calloway & the Nicholas Brothers in 1943 Stormy Weather film. Baryshnikov, Gregory Hines, Fred Astair, said it was the greatest dance sequence ever on film. Savion Glover said it would take CGI to repeat what they did.

You ALWAYS show respect to Old School.

One of my favorite scenes in any movie ever. Absolute magic

1:55 "Bend those legs, Arthur. Bend 'em! That's it, baby!" Happy 88th birthday, Arthur Duncan. Keep proving Gregory Hines wrong, him saying you ain't got no legs.

RIP Mr Hines. You are greatly missed.

When Sammy THROWS THAT CANE, DONE DEAL!!!

Walking into a room of old men who all wear tap shoes around like they were just their normal street shoes, you would be wise to shut up and not give them a reason to break one off in you!

Sandman in the corner 👂🏿 Ear hustling😂 the greatest legends of tap in one scene

It's crazy how almost everyone in this video is no longer with us. 😔💔🙏🏾

This will always be my favorite movie dance scene. Gregory Hines plus all these legends? YES!

ALWAYS RESPECT THE ELDER PERIOD

Just SICK!! I always loved this movie. Saw this in the theater and stuck with me since. I'm only 28, but can appreciate that we are seeing ALL TIME Tap legends. Royalty in that world. I love the way the movie really was a tribute to true tap. We now act as if it is so low form of minstrel exercise, but it was THE dance of true dancers...Nicholas Brothers were the dopest!! If you haven't seen it do yourself the favor

Gregory Hines is such a great actor because he has to sit there like he is not impressed by not just himself but these legends

To think this would the last time these legends will be together doing what they love. ❤

The only thing more awesome than the pure talent and genius of these men is the absolute joy they show when they use that talent. And a true passing of the torch- from these men to Gregory Hines, the greatest of his time, all while grooming the boy who followed Hines and carved his own legacy in Savion Glover

This is my uncle bunny briggs

Absolutely amazing, the floor was smoking with all of that talent ❤️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

It's the pure joy that gets me. You know they would be having just the same amount of fun with no cameras around to film them.

I have never seen any tap look so freaking cool. Amazing

There's absolutely no tension in any of them! This is phenomenal! I mean, I would expect nothing less from these men, but it is amazing to see such rhythm being made without any holding anywhere! Ugg! Stunning!

Some of the BEST tappers of the 20th century, AWESOME movie...

Just the way the Sun, shines in thru the window at their feet, let's you know even the atmosphere knew it was in the presence of Legends.

The first dancer Mr. Duncan spent nearly 20 years dancing on The Lawrence Welk Show.

Historic performance.

Don't underestimate the elders; they have more years and experience under their belt.

Tap!! One of the greatest arts we ever invented!!

Don't EVER DISRESPECT THE O.G'S!!!

I luv how Gregory was younger but still could keep up with the old cats 😍🔥. From a certain angle they look like they was shouting lol they took it to church the way they was clapping 🤣 👏 and Bunny's face at the end is hilarious 😅

Top 3 of all time movie scenes, never get sick of watching this.

The only reason I hit the LIKE is because there is not a LOVE button

Here in Russia in 1989 (USSR) this film was also shown in cinemas. I went to see it 5 times when I was a teenager. This is a wonderful film. This scene is one of the best I've ever seen in a movie.

This whole movie was a masterpiece it's terribly underrated and it has some of the best talent I've ever seen in a film. I'm glad it was made Gregory Hines was a great dancer and actor and to have Sammy in it too. Wow

A beautiful moment in cinematic history! Sammy Davis , Gregory Hines and all the heroes of Tap!! All those wonderful souls brought so many smiles to the people. God bless

Unfortunately, everyone of these masters are not with us anymore, including the great Gregory Hines. It breaks your heart.😢

3:09 WAHOO!!! Now that's a ice skating shuffle right there. Let Slyde, Big Jimmy. YEAAAAA!!!

My roommate and I just watched the tap dance episode from Psych. “That looks fun!” “You want to see some tap dancing. Let me show you some tap dancing.” Went straight to this video as an introduction to some real dancing. What I love about this scene is you get to see in one video how distinct each of their styles are comparatively. How fun it must have been to sit back and observe all these legends socialize and share.

The amount of talent in this one scene is just amazing to see. I have never seen anything like it. Sammy made it look like child’s play. Incredible.

Watched this movie with my late father (1938-1994) and i a lighty at 15/16 remembered how amazed i was to see the young gun (HiNeS) get outshined/outclassed and outdanced by the great old-timers. I was smiling uncontrollably from ear to ear with him seeing how the greats showed off their skill and talent and will be remembered by the younger generation for an eternity. It brought joy to my dad's eyes and he wasn't one to bring to joy easily (him being an old-time teacher/principal and strict disciplinarian)! It brings with it sadness but great memories and one i hope to share with my son (my only child)!

Finally this scene has been uploaded in good quality! This scene is absolute movie magic!

One of the greatest scenes in film and one of the best I’ve ever seen

Went to the theater to see this movie and I have to say, this scene is one of the greatest scenes ever caught on film. There’s a level of talent here that may never be seen again. And to think, the greatest dancer ever was just a kid in this scene, watching all the legends showcase their abilities. AMAZING!

A room full of masters!

Arthur Duncan doesn’t get enough credit for being such a talented hoofer!

The greatest dance scene ever filmed!

CHALLEEEEEEENGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The boys are having a great time dancing themselves to oblivion until the lovely lady shows up to put some sense into them with her mere presence.

The best of the best!!! What a treat to watch these men tap! RIT Rest in Tap!

All the premier tap dancers in this movie even at their ages, made it look TOTALLY fun n easy, but I had this movie on VHS, n even though I was young, I still would rewind this particular section over n over again trying to emulate all these ab fab older dancers steps, n it was NOT Easy, but very hard work n also quite fun. My Ballet 🩰 teacher, Mr. Louis Ravenal, was giving me extra lessons after class in the secondary practice studio room, in soft shoe n tap incorporated with my Russian Ballet School training!!!! That was in the 1970's n up to the middle 1980's, when I embarked on my exotic dancing career around the Detroit area at bars n theatres n in burlesque!;;! With my earlier training I was able to incorporate all different types of dance n styles into my Rock n Roll persona, as "Electric Liz" n " Heavy Metal Liz" which I was known for at that time period.!!! Loved it all so totally n miss it immensely, as the old age n fibromyalgia set in n limited me!!!! Love seeing these blasts from the past,!!!! Thank you for posting n making my night 🌃🌉!!!

I have always loved this movie and this has been my favorite scene I feel like this movie was so underrated and such a tribute and wow for them to all be together for Gregory Hines when he was at his prime and acting to be with the legends I still get goosebumps when I see this

LEGENDS IN ONE ROOM!!! OUR CHILDREN NEED TO SEE SUCH GREATNESS THANK YOU!

He had the World in the palm of his hands & feet at one point. The past.

Legendary

An era of entertainment gone forever. Art,talent and showmanship.

Man this is a beautiful classic in black history

Having watched those men in their prime day movies just flying through the air & seeing them still light it on fire in their elder years just divinity on earth.

This scene never gets old.

So much black excellence in this scene shoutout to legends who paved the way for us

2 people ain't got no legs

This is my favorite scene of the movie, real life tap dancers on screen together. Fantastic! 👍👌😉 1:55 Arthur Duncan 2:23 Bunny Briggs 2:51 Jimmy Slyde 3:32 Steve Condos 3:56 Harold Nicholas 4:58 Sandman Sims 5:57 Gregory Hines vs Sammy Davis Jr

My hat is off, and I bow to these true masters of dance. All of them have left us, but their memory will live on for a long, long time.

...toto je klasika vybroušená do nejvyšší dokonalosti.. dnes už tyto kroky nejsou vidět a slyšet - takto to má vypadat..❤

Cinematography and lighting is superb. Black excellence

I saw this movie in the theater and it was a treat.

To have that many legends in one movie, showing they still "have legs" is amazing!

Sure sounded a challenge to me 😂

Can you imagine tellin Sammy Davis, you ain’t got no legs no more😂😂

Watching artists enjoy their craft is always great especially when they've reach such high levels.

This just blows my mind, respect to all. And Thank you. My 88 yrs old acquaintance is in awe of how these guys can move like that at their respective ages , so am I.

I remember watching this movie as a child. This movie was the 1 that made me want to tap dance.

I've never seen this before--- and it brought me SO much joy. This was greatness.

The greatest movie scene...EVER!

"I'll still be dying, just be more bored doing it."

This is SO amazing... I can watch it over and over!

This dance segment takes me back, awesome skill, awesome talent. I
