WATCH: Amazing video of Mickey Mouse and friends on a surprise visit to shopping centre

Unsuspecting shoppers in a New York mall got an awesome surprise this week. A false shop with backlit front exterior was set up and then a host of Disney characters proceeded to shadow-stalk people passing. Grown-ups and kids alike were dancing and laughing as their "shadows" mimicked their every move. There was even an amazing dance-off with Mickey proving more than a match for his opponent. It was like a real life version of the shadow scene in Disney's Fantasia. Come spread the joy in Dublin next, Mickey.
