Discofinger salvation

A shining example of 19th century British discofinger found in London's East End and submitted by discofinger-spotter Casionova.

William Booth (1829 - 1912) was the founder of the Salvation Army. He preached to alcoholics, criminals and prostitutes about the path to salvation, which can clearly be found in the dance move affectionately known as the discofinger.

Discofinger, circa 210 BC, China

One of the earliest examples of the discofinger has been spotted in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, China, at the home of the Terracotta Army. It is believed that the Terracotta Army, which contains more than 8,000 statues, was a form of funerary art, the purpose of which was to be able to rule another empire in the afterlife. The figures were buried with the First Emperor of Qin in 210-209 BC.

The significance of the discovery of a discofinger from this time cannot be understated. Its existence strongly suggests that the Qin Dynasty was no stranger to the discofinger, and indeed, it may have been a part of traditional Chinese dance of the time.

A Mozambican discofinger

Finally, a discofinger is spotted in sub-Sahara Africa at a Mozambican wedding. You'll easily spot the perpetrator, Cameron Morris, quite easily due to his tailor-made Ugandan suit. Cameron has made it his lifelong mission to "keep it real" and has been documenting his adventures in Mozambique on his Kiva blog.
