Welsh camper goes Gangnam Style in a caravan

The tourer owner certainly delivered a unique performance of Gangnam Style

by Ben Wilby
Gangnam Style was the defining hit of 2012, getting over a billion YouTube hits, reaching number one in 34 different countries and has been countlessly parodied by everyone from school children to prisoners.
Now the famous song has received the finest honour – it has been performed in a caravan and uploaded to YouTube.
The caravanner in question is Leigh Bowden, a tow-truck driver from St Asaph, Wales.
He recorded his unique version of the famous dance in his caravan, which was parked near the Conwy Tunnel, waiting to recover any breakdowns.
Leigh explained how the video came to be:
“It all started last year when I was on roadwork’s recovery in Wrexham and I sent my daughter a video of myself dancing to James Brown while cooking my breakfast.
“She suggested I put it up on YouTube. It had over 650 views.
“Since then, I’ve become the mad man in a caravan – this time, I put on my padded suit and started dancing to Gangnam Style.”
His madcap antics come less than a year after static caravan owner Phil Ball wrote a ukulele serenade for his prized holiday home.
