"SO WHAT ARE YOU IN HERE FOR?"

"WHAT ARE YOU...OH NEVER MIND, I LOVE THIS SONG!" - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18I bet they downloaded this song ilegally
- boejangles, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14Well.... at least they aren't stabbing each other in prison.
They probably have made life long friends. Its like camp!
-Long Live Mercury - MattZed, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12How the hell... did they raid the local dance studio and throw them all in jail?
- luke16, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12I have booked tickets to see these guys next month...
- Lyght, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9"The" Queen?
- willmeister42, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7They should have done ''I want to break free''
- justpass1ngby, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I've been a lurker forever but registered so I can reply to you and explain to everyone.
I'm from the Philippines. These dances are all from a kind of variety show the inmates prepared for college students and other volunteers in a program that taught inmates to read and write, among other things. The inmates you see dancing around and stuff are there because they want to, to express their gratitude to the people that helped them. It's not some cruel form of torture like some at Digg think. - digimilleditor, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDTCKS4qXM8
This is the truth! Spread this fast... before this gets out of hand! Too late! - Flashman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5It doesn't get much more camp than Queen.
- GeekyGerge, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6WTF? Do they do weekly performances?
- e68895f, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6cue the RIAA banning this video, because they were dancing to copyrighted music....
- dampcloth, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8not another one - oh well i will look forward to seeing this on the national news when there low on stories
- mark_1581, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Do Virtual Insanity and I'll really be impressed.
- lesty420, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5http://www.youtube.com/user/byronfgarcia to see the all the videos of the inmates (atleast i think its all of them)
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3jail house rock!
- HayString, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3that dude should have uploaded them to Metacafe, he'd be making a killing
- pjdk28, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Apparently you really don't like to dance. Loosen up. It's better than gang wars
- boejangles, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Meh... its not so bad really, there are much worse prisons out there.
Besides, you do the crime, you do the dance. - TheSaladMan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3She's quite a manly singer apparently, and rocks on a guitar
- Yokohamalion, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2This warden is a prick. Thinks he's Kim Jung Il or something. I wonder whats happens if you refuse to be in his little production.
- DinX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The Thriller one is better, but very cool, all of them. There's also one where they do Sister Act.
- Nicksname1, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4This is ridiculous, I just don't understand it. I even watched this 10 minute long documentary about it as well and I still don't get it.

This video should be filed under the WYSIWTF category. - ericeman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"Prisoners of love, Blue skies above- 'Cause we're still prisoners"
- furii, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The BBC has interviewed them too:

- newbis, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I would literally do anything to not go to prison. Anything.
- ICSU, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You know, some countries actually take the "correction" part in "correction facility" seriously.
- omnithought, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1http://www.digg.com/videos/comedy/Why_don_t_we_have_prisoners_like_THIS_in_the_US
- SuperMoses, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Now that's what I call rehabilitation.
- sexybobo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1you would think the bbc would have higher quality video and maby a flash video option instead of real. seriously i hat those web sites that still use real for video. it means that i have to install their damn player on every pc i install.
- omnithought, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1After a hard day of canings, anal rapes and my daily handful of maggot-filled rice, I like to get jiggy with it!
- mapkinase, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I do realize that inmates who did not want to be in this were coerced to do so under ... I do not want even to go there.
- Jezper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1doublerofl :)
- kd1s, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Hey, if it helps keep the prisoner population happy they're more likely to be obedient. I think they've stumbled on a great idea. It's very much akin to boot camp for prisoners here in the U.S. A strict regimented life helps keep discipline problems in check.
- rotarychainsaw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1OMG YES! Quick someone email them.
- M1ST3R, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Not quite thriller, but I celebrate their entire catalogue...
- cheddar, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Radio Gaga? Why not use the Thriller video they did?

Am I the only one who knows that the BG music for the video I just pasted is from Yanni? - rxkyle, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1so it made it here in digg. cool. :)
- dikaiosyne, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0A prison is a prison is a prison.
- essenceappeal, on 11/30/2008, -0/+0You can see more stuff about the Philippines at http://americanlifeinthephilippines.blogspot.com/
- HuRrIcAnE3000, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDTCKS4qXM8 Is that the truth of the prison?
- ElTorrente, on 02/10/2008, -0/+0If only "Prison Break" was something like this....
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1Well looks like these guys picked up the soap a few too many times
Surreal but..... awesome - shorty9, on 10/10/2007, -8/+1That is by far one of the lamest things ever to hit digg. I mean, I understand the need for rehabilitation but this is ludicrous.
- eihwaz, on 10/10/2007, -8/+1I guess everybody who's seen the "Thriller" video has already seen all their other videos too, including this one.
I'll have to mark this as dupe, sorry.
