Last year, a duo of relative unknowns named Zay Hilfigerrr and Zayion McCall, released a bouncy and playful track called "Juju on That Beat". It was wisely crafted tune that came with its own animated dance routine, which as you may already know, shot the group to viral superstardom. Along with the slew of recreations online, the song entered the Billboard 100, and landed its creators on Ellen and Live! with Kelly among other notable television appearances. While the dance challenge has already been incredibly popular for a minute now, "Juju" received another boost of media attention this month, thanks to an 8-year-old hockey goalie named Noah Young. 

Last week, a video of the young netminder was uploaded to multiple social media platforms. What it lacks in length, it more than makes up for in slick moves, as the clip shows Noah's own unique spin on the famous dance. In the aforementioned video, Noah rushes to the middle of the ice in full goalie equipment right before busting out some killer moves. His super fun rendition has been viewed by millions of people across the world, and much like his musical inspiration, it's put him firmly in the viral spotlight. It's only taken a few days for Young to get profiled on local news outlets, as well as TSN, folks over at the NHL, and countless other blogs and websites. You can view the entire thing below via Facebook.

The Toronto Sun managed to catch up with Noah's mom, who said that her son has an inherent passion for dance, even during regulation time. “When he’s not at net, you’ll see him dancing on the bench every time the whistle blows,” she told reporters. While Noah's future as an NHL goalie may be a few years away, his ability to dance is already making him a star. Most recently, he linked up with the ECHL's Brampton Beast to show their squad how it's all done. I think we speak for everyone here when we say, don't stop crushing it Noah!
