About
Worm Dancing to Music, also known by the hashtag #WormDancingtoMusic, is a video editing meme where a video of a violently spasming worm is combined with different songs so that the beginning of the spasm coincides with the song's drop or climax.
Origin
The worm video was first posted to Tumblr sometime during the spring of 2014. The original post has been deleted, but a post by user unacclimated, reblogged from the original poster, received over 75,000 notes by August 2015.[1]
Spread
The video was used in several smaller YouTube videos and posts on Reddit and Imgur throughout the beginning 2015.[2][3] One such post on Imgur was captioned with "When I try to make something in gmod" and received 3,092,447 views between its post date on May 2nd, 2015 and August 5th, 2015.[4]
On August 3rd, 2015, users began repurposing the video on Vine, pairing it with different types of music to create a humorous effect. In two days, there were over 1,000 of these types of videos, many with more than 100,000 loops.[5]
