I would've figured this had been done before. And it has, but all of them only included one of the ham(p)sters.

I'm assuming the reason it hasn't been done is because all of the hampsters were in separate .gifs before. I had to compile them together into one .gif.

This was YTMND before there was a YTMND. In a way, we all owe something to the hampsterdance.

I regret this everyday, for a friend and I right before graduation were going to burn the audio track from this on to a cd, and loop it over the school's PA. There were some loose wires in the locker room where you could tap right into it.

Course this was all behind a tile in the wall, so it would have covered the cd-player nicely.

I'm pretty sure the audio is a sped-up recording of the song from the 1973 animated Robin Hood.

The Hamster Dance was ahead of its time. That sh*t is a YTMND before YTMND.

Deleted by mods. She's a big whiner. To be honest, I can't actually remember if it was infact YTMND i'm remembering it to have been removed from but I'm sure it's been posted before anyway.

"a nice clean loop would be appropriate. Get to work!" That wouldn't be true to the original. Hamsterdance brings back good memories :)

To everyone saying "PUT THE WHOLE SONG!!" or "Make a cleaner loop" obviously miss the point. This is the origional sound clip, from the origional hampster dance site. The noise at the end of the loop, makes the YTMND, changing it to 'clean it up' would ruin the whole idea.

You should watch yourself. Didn't the original creator threaten to sue people who recreated Hamsterdance.com? Saw it on somethingaweful. Also c*cks.

I hate to stress this, but it took me hours to combine these into one .gif, since the original .gifs were at different speeds and lengths.
