We all know the macarena, the nutbush, the washing-machine and the hokey-pokey, but what about the 'sinking boat'. While Dannii Minogue was performing on stage she tried to point out to the crowd mid song that a boat was sinking in a lake behind them. Instead, the crowd thought Dannii was revoloutinising a new dance move, which from now will be referred to as 'the point'. The crowd totally ignored the real message in Dannii's moves and started imitating the dance diva thinking it was some cool new move.

"I really enjoyed performing here today but there was a moment in my act when, yes, I was a bit concerned," she said. Fan Gemma Jones, 13, said she had not realised anything was wrong. "I saw her doing this strange move which was not like her normal dance routines. I thought it might be some new sort of dance craze and started copying," Jones said

The capsized captain was embarrassed to learn that Dannii had seen the whole thing. Where's the funniest home video crew when you need them most?
