Millions of people fondly remember the classic Dick Van Dyke Show, but now the 89-year old entertainer is amazing Internet audiences with his dance moves and comedic genius. Just watch the music video featuring Dick and his wife, Arlene.
When the band Dustbowl Revival learned that actor Dick Van Dyke was willing to appear in a music video, they tuned up their instruments and took full advantage of the once in a lifetime opportunity.
