3. Anti-gravity lean
Undoubtedly, Michael Jackson was one of the greatest singers and dancers in the world, but his performance in the music video Smooth Criminal left all of his fans with one single question: How did he do this amazing gravity-defying forward lean?
How it’s done: The secret here is his specially designed shoes with a hitching mechanism. A special slot at the bottom of the heel connected to a peg on the floor, so Michael could easily support his own body weight even when performing that iconic dance move.
