Kevin Bacon Congratulates Brookings Man On ‘Footloose’ Video Parody

There is even more big talent coming out of South Dakota.

27-year-old Brookings, SD native, Jake Murray, waited outside for 5 days to try out for American Ninja Warrior.  They didn't give him a chance to run the obstacle course.

Perhaps to show off his fitness for competition in American Ninja Warrior, Murray put together a really awesome video parody of Kevin Bacon's iconic angry dance montage from Footloose.

I received an email from Jake pointing out that now Kevin Bacon has seen his video and congratulated him on his nice job via Twitter.

How cool is that!?  And how cool is this video?  Well done!
