15 Minutes for 1500 Phillipino Prisoners

(Guess prison isn't as bad as I once thought--RIP M.J.)

Their youtube video received over 23.6 million hits and this number is expected to sky-rocket since the news of Michael Jackson's untimely passing.

The 1500 plus CPDRC inmates of the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center, Cebu, Philippines who created this Internet sensation, are just as heart-broken as the rest of us at the news of the King of Pop's death.

“My heart is heavy because my idol died,” said Byron Garcia, security consultant at a Philippine prison who organized the famous video of 1,500 inmates doing a synchronized dance to “Thriller.”

Watch the tribute done by the CPDRC Inmates on June 27, 2009 below:
