# Sans Fortnite Dance Sans Fortnite Dance is a series of animated videos and edits showing the skeleton character Sans from Undertale performing the Default Dance emote from Fortnite. Kicked off in June 2018 by a Twitter clip and expanded a few weeks later into a full animation, it became one of the definitive crossover shitposts of that summer's Fortnite mania. ## Origin The earliest known version was posted on June 17, 2018, when Twitter user @Yahiamice shared a clip of a Fortnite character wearing a skeleton costume doing the Default Dance to a Megalovania remix[4]. About three weeks later, on July 6, 2018, YouTuber bbpanzu uploaded a proper animation of Sans himself performing the Fortnite Default Dance, which pulled more than 29,000 views within two months[2][3]. Toby Fox created Sans as part of Undertale, and Epic Games ships the Default Dance as a Fortnite emote; neither studio was involved in the crossover, which was built entirely by fans remixing both properties[3]. - **Platform:** Twitter (initial clip) / YouTube (viral animation) - **Creator:** Yahiamice (earliest known post); bbpanzu (viral animation) - **Date:** 2018 ## Overview Sans Fortnite Dance covers the collection of edits, GIFs and short animations in which Sans, the skeleton judge from Toby Fox's Undertale, performs the Default Dance emote from Fortnite Battle Royale[1]. The joke plays off two of 2018's biggest fandoms colliding, with Sans's boney frame looping through the emote's exaggerated hip swings, usually set to a remix of his boss theme Megalovania[3]. Variations range from clean green-screen renders meant to be dropped into other clips[3], to compositing edits that place Sans directly into Fortnite matches or scenes from shows like Family Guy[3]. The tone is pure shitpost, more absurd than skillful, and the format's staying power comes from how easily anyone with a video editor could jam the skeleton into a new setting. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Sans Fortnite Dance?
