and this

there are little hooks on the floor that fit into the bottom of the shoes so that they hold you place as you lean

>>84407709
They had strings to pull them up and down. Most special effects were done this way back then.

> In the music video, Michael Jackson and the dancers immediately around him perform a seemingly impossible forward lean, the illusion was created using strings and wires in the music video. To accomplish this manoeuvre in live shows, a hitching mechanism which Jackson co-patented was built into the floor of the stage and the performers' shoes, thereby allowing performers to lean without needing to keep their centers of mass directly over their feet.The system consists of pegs that rise from the stage at the appropriate moment and special shoes with ankle supports and cutouts in the heels which can slide over the pegs and be temporarily attached to the stage.

> In the patent, it is stated that the illusion in the music video was achieved by means of harnesses and cables which had to be connected to and disconnected from the floor by stagehands.

>>84408221
I agree with you although everything else they've done is shit.

>>84408282
>>84408264
why would you mess up shoes and do something as dangerous as putting nails that stick out in the floor while you can just rotate the camera slightly?

>>84408045
>very little of his Greatness remained

He died 3 weeks before his series of comeback concert was scheduled to start.

How could you possibly know there was no greatness left in him?

He was never a pedo. Original kid has admitted he lied and his father was just out for money. It was just an attempt from a pack of filthy Jews to try and kill his career.

I never saw it but I really should. Enough time has passed but I just felt like it would be a horrible affirmation that we were gonna get 50 fucking unbelievable concerts and then a re-energized Michael getting back into the studio to record a new album and now we'll never have it. He was probably ready to premier something new in the same manner Billie Jean was done live for the first time, albeit synced because he wanted to ensure the choreography was perfect.

He did it at live concerts too. No clue how. He also did a bunch of other magic shit for other songs. Like during thriller he put himself into a glass coffin, and covered it with a sheet, levitated in the air and vanished only to appear on a crane elevated above the stage moments later for another song. That VHS is awesome

For anyone who doesn't know, incredibly horrible case of Vitiligo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitiligo

I assume it got to him so much that he just said "Fuck it." and got his whole body bleached, then started the plastic surgery hoping to make himself look "better" and "mrore natural" somehow, then it just kind of got out of control.

Straight up, Michael had a hard life. The shit he had to deal with just being Michael Jackson, almost makes it not worth being Michael Jackson.

When I was a kid back in the 80s, my whole family (excluding dad) would watch the Smooth criminal video and try to copy the dance moves. We could never do the lean properly.

My theory is that he must have had shoes that hooked into some type of grooves in the floor to support him doing a 45 degree lean. That shit's not possible without falling over.
