WWI Christmas video

This video is about something that happened in World War I. World War I was the first time all countries were fighting eachother. Some small countries were not fighting (like Switzerland for example). During the war at Christmas time in one part of the long line of fighting sides, the fighting stopped and both sides were friends for a short time. This video is about that short time when they were not fighting.

A man named Matt dancing in many countries

Where is Matt.

This person was working at Wallmart and saving his money for many years. Then he went travelling around the world to many countries. In the first country his girlfriend said maybe he should do something in the video. Matt said "ok" and started dancing. Then he began dancing in every country he went to.

When he got home, he put his video online. Many people liked his video. A gum company gave him money to travel again and make another video. Now there are two "Where is Matt" videos online made by the same person. Here is his first video made in 2008.
