Jed Lifeson, the dancing man of Main Street

Dance like everyone's watching.

That's how Jed Lifeson, also known as Jed the Dancing Guy, grooves down Main Street on a beautiful springlike day.

Back in 2003, Lifeson's mother was in a coma for 17 days. Then she revived. It soon became clear she would make a full recovery.

I walked out of Mount Sinai Hospital and I was so grateful. I was overpowered with joy. It had to come out. I didn't care if people thought I was crazy. I danced," he told the Spectator in 2011.

He's been dancing ever since.
