In this instructable i will teach you the theory and method of doing the moonwalk. The moonwalk is a dance that gives an illusion that you are walking but actually you are moving backwards. It's mechanics were invented by the mime marcel marceau but they were put to dance by michael jackson. Actually doing the moonwalk is simple you just need to practise and you can get really good at it.
