This is the incredible moment Ryanair passengers were treated to an impromptu swing dance performance by a group of Lindy Hoppers - and joined in.

The dance troupe was flying home from Vilnius, Lithuania, to Milan, Italy, when they broke into an improvised shim sham - a form of tap dance - at 32,000ft.

In the clip, the dancers can be seen busting moves in the aisles along to a tune.

Most passengers and staff on flight FR2871 watch enthusiastically, but some just can't resist standing up and joining in the fun.
