A holocaust survivor, and his children and grandchildren, dancing at the death and concentration camps that represented humanity at it's absolute nadir. The song? Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive.
I'm a cynical bastard. I have little faith in the potential of my species to rise too far above the primates that roamed the African plains 5 million years ago. But occasionally, something comes along that reminds me that we are humans, with all the hope, promise, and sheer joy that encompasses. Dancing at Auschwitz. With your grandchildren. This video has restored my faith and hope in humanity. If this man can dance, then so can we all.
Of course, I'm thinking of the lyrics of Megadeth's You're Dead

"If someone had told me here, then, that I would come sixty something three years later with my grandchildren, so I'd say 'what are you talking about?' This is really a historical moment."
Of course, I'm thinking of the lyrics of Megadeth's You're Dead
One day I'll dance on your grave
Even if you're buried at sea
Till then, till when I exact my revenge
I'll tell them, "You're dead to me"
