Crash Dance

The Crash Dance is a famous dance that was originally performed by Crash Bandicoot, and would go on to be performed by other characters in the franchise.

Overview
It first appeared in Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back when Crash successfully collects a gem and returns it to the Warp Room or after defeating most bosses. This was reprised in Crash Bandicoot: Warped. An extended version also appeared in the Japanese adverts for the game and in the title screen of the Japanese version of Warped. At the end of Crash Twinsanity, Dr. Cortex ends up in Crash's brain after a scheme backfired. He was surrounded by miniature versions of Crash, who all started to perform the dance.

A variant of the Crash dance can be seen in Crash Bandicoot: Dansu! De Jump! Na Daibouken. The variant shown is when Crash puts out his fists and brings then back in. Crash does the small section of the dance when Crash and Aku Aku get their first "Power Stone".

Crash also performs it when he wins a race in Crash Team Racing, Crash Nitro Kart and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled on the victory podium. In Nitro-Fueled, Crash sometimes performs a simplified version of the dance in the seat of his kart upon winning a race.

The dance also appeared in the Japanese version of Crash Tag Team Racing, and all versions of Crash of the Titans and Crash: Mind Over Mutant where Crash would sometimes perform the dance as an idle animation.

Fake Crash has his own variation of the dance, as first seen in Crash Bandicoot: Warped. He would reprise his version of the dance in the victory podium in Crash Team Racing and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, along with all his appearances in the N. Sane Trilogy.

Coco has a variation of the dance as well, first shown in Crash of the Titans and Crash: Mind Over Mutant. While playing as her in the N. Sane Trilogy, she will perform her variation of the dance when Crash performs his.
