Egyptian Government Finds No Humor in “Harlem Shake”; Four Arrested

The on-line craze called the “Harlem Shake” – is apparently not found by Egyptian authorities to be amusing. Four students were arrested after stripping to their underwear in a Cairo neighborhood to participate in the filming of a “shake.”  Reports from Cairo indicated that the quartet was assauted by the audience which found their act “scandalous.” A version of the Harlem Shake filmed in front of the Great Pyramids has gone viral.
