This is Part I of a two part pancocojams series that showcases the 2009 YouTube video of the "Terminal Reaction" Soul line dance that was performed by a group of New Jersey dancers.
This post also includes selected comments from the discussion thread of this embedded video. This compilation documents some of the comments from that discussion thread that include superlatives about that line dance performance.
I'm particularly interested in comments that document some examples of African American Vernacular English terms which mean that something is "great" and/or "performed very well".
