Sydney - An Australian mining services company has fired up to 15 workers who performed an underground version of the Harlem Shake and posted it online, in a second incident of the Internet dance craze sparking safety concerns.
The workers were part of an overnight crew working at the Agnew Mine in Western Australia owned by South African miner Gold Fields Ltd. The workers were employed by Barminco, an Australia-based underground services company.
The 30-second video posted on YouTube shows a group of miners, some wielding tools and shirtless, performing the Harlem Shake, which typically begins with a one solo dancer who is quickly joined by others, often in costumes or with props.

Seriously this thing is getting out of hand.
Nowadays you cannot look around without seeing the phrase anywhere.

Well that escalated quickly!
Poor workers, I can admit that it might not be safe to do such things, but firing them? Jeez, isn't that a bit rough?

People are getting addicted to this. :redface:

Pissing around with a f**king dance while they're doing a dangerous job in which lives are at stake, the mining firm made a good choice.
