Hallway Swimming Has Gone Viral, All Videos Here

The Harlem Shake blew up fast. Hallway Swimming hasn’t taken off as quickly, but it’s building steam. The video above jumped on the craze, taking it to a new level, but something tells me there are levels of Hallway Swimming we simply have not imagined yet.

Here’s the original, in all its raw, spontaneous glory, with 3.5 million views and counting:

Here’s a Hallway Swimming effort with swim meets sound effects:

These guys claim to have the biggest Hallway Swim ever, but it appears our featured video tops them, and it seems we’re instore for far bigger Hallway Swims… Swimmers only need a bigger hallway.

Now we have someone claiming to have the official Hallway Swimming song, and…we’re ready to endorse “the track” as the official Hallway Swimming Song. It works, and it was used by the featured video at the top. You judge!

And here’s why we’re thinking the above is the official Hallway Swimming song. These guys try to pull-off Hallway Swimming with Michael Jackson. I say #fail.

This is just plain Hallway Swimming, backstroke swimming, very smooth…impressive really. Aaron Peirsol would be proud!

Bigger is usually better, but you don’t have to go big to be impressive. This guy delivers an impressive Hallway Swim in a tiny space.

For this to really takeoff, go Harlem Shake huge, we need entire swimming teams posting videos.  At SwimSwam, we’ll be watching.

1. If you post a Hallway Swimming video you think is impressive, we’ll post.

2. Email us at SwimSwam.com and include a little background on who you are, your swim team, your swim coach, etc.  (Also, you could tweet your Hallway Swimming video to us @SwimSwamNews.)

3. Send us your Twitter handle so we can tweet you when we post your Hallway Swimming video.

If we get enough Hallway Swimming videos, we’ll run a contest and award a prize.

Please note: Some call this Hallway Surfing. It is not. It is Hallway Swimming. Don’t make that mistake when labeling your video.
