Dances like “the hustle,” “the mashed potato” and “the macarena” have all become a part of popular culture over the years. For the most part, we can all say that we’ve grooved with these dance moves in at least one of our office parties (let’s not kid ourselves here – they’re total guilty pleasures).

The Art Gallery of Ontario has decided to honour the King Tut exhibit they’re currently housing with a Guinness World Record attempt. The challenge: How many people can simultaneously “tut” continuously for five minutes?

“Tutting” is a dance move straight from the ‘80s. According to Dancejam, an online how-to guide to almost every dance you wish you knew how to do, “tutting” involves the use of right angles and precise movements that create geometric positions – most likely originating through the mimicking of ancient Egyptian art.

On Feb. 28, with the help of Mark Cabuena from Toronto dance crews Grand Illusion and For the Funk of It, you and the AGO could dance into the record books. All you have to do is sign up and learn a short dance routine. Event participants even receive one free general admission to the AGO, and qualify to win one-night accommodations for two at the Westin Harbour Castle, $500 in shopping certificates and two VIP tickets for the King Tut exhibit. Not a bad tradeoff, I’d say.
