Prisoners in Cebu, Philippines honor fallen Michael Jackson with Thriller Tribute27 Jun

Once again, the prisoners in the Cebu Provincial Detention & Rehabilitation Center have prepared a fitting tribute to Michael Jackson the “King of Pop” who died this week on Thursday June 25th 2009.

The original, you may recall, was a smash hit on YouTube with over 25 million views worldwide. This began as an experiment to get the detainees into better shape and allow for bonding and it’s turned into a meme. In case you missed the original, a must watch:

Whatever your thoughts on Michael Jackson, his influence around the world is incredible and his music has a timeless quality about it that does tend to bring people together. Whether you’re watching this from your living room or you were involved in this as an inmate in Cebu, Philippines, best of luck to you and yours wherever life might take you. RIP Michael.

    M. Jackson was like a family member to me. I’ve been coping with his passing away and it has been very tough for me. I cannot believe how he progressed the people around the world. I wish his family the best. Thank you Michael for the most amazing life!
