There's nothing like seeing people do what they love the most. And seeing this elderly couple swing dance like there is no tomorrow is filling my heart!
Nellia und Dietmar Ehrentraut have a passion and talent for swing dance. The Austrian couple has been married since 1970. And now in their 60s and 70s, respectively, Nellia and Dietmar still dance like they are in their teens. They are truly incredible. You've got to see their incredible dance to the dance classic "Down the Road a Piece".

You only have to watch a few seconds to understand why this video quickly went viral. And while Nellia and Dietmar aren't new to dancing, in fact they have won five National dance championships for Austria, they are new to internet fame. When the incredible couple was interviewed about their sudden rise to fame the couple told the Mirror "We are quite flabbergasted. I had not even seen anyone filming us."

Well they may be surprised that something that is so natural to them is stunning the internet but we aren't surprised at all. Seeing how these two twirl and dip, kick and twist in perfect harmony is amazing. I can't even dance like that now. I can't imagine being able to do this in my 70s! But man I am so glad these two are still going strong.

It is so obvious that they love dancing, but more importantly they love dancing together. And while I'm sure this isn't easy, you can tell they are having so much fun together. And I'm sure they will keep dancing as long as they are having fun.
