Awesome / Where the hell is Matt?

• All of the videos, really. Matt dancing in zero gravity in particular, but also him at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, him in Bolivia appearing to dance on the waters surface itself, and him dancing on top of a rock wedged precariously between two cliffs.
• In his 2008 video, he got about as close as he could to dancing in North Korea; namely, the Demilitarised Zone. Reasonable expectation, even though he put film of his time in Israel with his time in the West Bank. 2012? Gaza Strip, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria (with Censor Dots) ... and, yes, him with a crowd. In Pyongyang.
• He also reveals in his blog that MTV once asked permission to feature him in a discussion of "dancing douchebaggery". In response, he wrote back:
  "Dear MTV, I will consent to use of my image on your show if you can kindly meet the following conditions: I would like MTV President Van Toffler to sign a consent form agreeing to change the network's name from "Music Television" to "Crappy, Condescending Reality Show Television." I would like him to then issue a statement apologizing to our nation's youth for making them lazy, stupid and pregnant. Also, please ask Van to get a less douchebaggy name."^note  Although it might have been worth it if he'd agreed, because his videos would introduce depth to a station otherwise known for its shallowness.
• The song in the 2008 video, Praan, was sung by a 17-year old singer prodigy, Palbasha Siddique, and immediately became among the top 10 of Amazon's soundtrack downloads over a week and also made the top 100 of all its MP3 downloads.
