Ninja New Year's Eve Dancing Fail Recreated in Fortnite
By Nicholas Barth ·
The now viral dancing fail by Fortnite Twitch streamer Ninja at his New Year's Eve event has been recreated in the battle royale title.
2018 saw Twitch streamer Tyler "Ninja" Belvins skyrocket into becoming the most popular video game content creator in the world with his main game of focus being the massively popular battle royale title of Fortnite. In a year that saw Ninja break numerous Twitch and YouTube records and become a household name throughout the world it would be difficult to see 2018 end in any other way for Ninja than by the Twitch streamer and YouTuber hosting a Fortnite stream from Times Square in New York City to celebrate New Year's Eve.
Unfortunately for Ninja, one of the most viewed moments of his New Year's Eve stream for the battle royale title from Epic Games was a failed attempt at getting approximately one million people in Times Square to do the popular Fortnite dance emote of Flossing with him during the broadcast. The failed group flossing attempt by the content creator has since become viral with the original Twitch clip having over 1,200,000 views at the time of this writing.
Community member CracklyPeach responded to the failed flossing dance attempt by Ninja by creating an impressive recreation of it in the battle royale title of Fortnite that has been instrumental in the rise of Ninja becoming the most popular video game player in the world.

While the failed attempt at getting an enormous crowd to all do the Floss dance from Fortnite will likely be one of the most popular moments from the Ninja Fortnite New Year's Eve stream event, the popular Twitch streamer was able to find humor in it as well by poking fun at himself on Twitter.

Dont try to get 1 million New Yorkers to dance in the rain on new years. Trust me.
With a history making run in 2018 now behind Ninja, the Fortnite star on Twitch and YouTube will no doubt not have his New Year's Eve Flossing fail stop him from seeing even more success in 2019.
