Hopping on the trend train, Montgomery County Executive Ike Leggett stars in a county version of the "Harlem Shake" video -- the popular dance craze that has been hitting the Internet.

The Harlem Shake -- which last month became the latest viral video trend -- starts off with one person dancing, and when the beat drops everyone goes crazy.

Leggett appears in his Harlem Shake rendition with the Jewish Council for the Aging, where members were holding a Senior Prom on Sunday in Rockville.

Leggett starts out the dancing waving his arms, while everyone joins in at the end. The only person upping Leggett's dance moves is a gentleman in brown, who breaks it down about 25 seconds into the video.
