When Life Gives You Lemons, Dance and Make a Music Video | Dance the night away

Missing your flight and getting stuck at the airport is, without a doubt, one of the less enjoyable experiences out there. Mahshid Mazooji, however, might disagree with you.

Last month, the friendly traveler missed a connecting flight at North Carolina's Charlotte Douglas International Airport and ended having to wait all night for her next flight.

Rather than sit around and sulk about the inconvenience, Mazooji decided to make the most of her time and turn the waiting time into a positive and fun experince.

She spent the better part of the night organizing an impromptu dance party with airport workers on the night shift and fellow passengers waiting at the airport.

Mazooji filmed herself dancing with a host of total strangers and edited the footage into an awesome music video set to Lionel Richie’s 1983 hit song “All Night Long (All Night).” 

She posted the video to YouTube, where it quickly went viral with over 2.5 million views. “I didn’t want to sit in anger all night long, so instead I did what makes me happiest…DANCE!!!! Oh, and I made some really great friends along the way!” Mahshid captioned the fun video.

Even Lionel Richie himself caught wind of the video, sharing it on his official Facebook page. “HAHA! Seems like a really fun use of downtime at the airport… That moonwalk though, wow!” the singer wrote.

Judging by the excitement Mazooji created with her awesome video, it's fair to asume we're gonna see a lot more people dancing at the airport soon.
