In the United States, a man performed a break dance during an official meeting in protest of a tax hike.

According to the New York Post and other U.S. media, a man named Wil Tilly suddenly stood up during a public meeting at Cranford Town Hall in New Jersey on the 2nd (local time) and started a break dance called Windmill.

Windmill is a break dance technique that rotates in a circle with the shoulders and back on the floor and legs in the air.




After dancing for a minute without music, he later took the podium.

After that, he said "Why did our taxes go up so much?"I questioned city officials. Claiming that his tax was raised by about $900 (W1.25 million), he said "I heard it was because of the school education system, is that right?," he queried again.

At the same time, he pointed out that school system developers are passing on the costs to residents and urged improvement.




Tilly has performed at town hall meetings in the past, dancing or breathing into the microphone.

He said "I wanted to reduce the distance between the residents and the public officials"I want the public officials to recognize the residents as friends and equal beings"

After the meeting, he left the conference room doing a dance move 'Moonwalk' that glides backward without saying a word.
