If you have a pair of hard-soled shoes, two pressure-sensitive LED tiles, and some baby mama drama from which you need to extricate yourself, let this Instructable be your guide and recreate the special-FX steps from Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.”<\/p>\n

Admittedly, I’m not sure how easy it would be to do any sort of dancing with a gigantic LED tile attached to each foot. But when you’re standing still, and being viewed from the knee down, you will be the spitting image<\/i> of the King of Pop.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Instructable covers all the bases, from assembling the light-up squares to spray-painting the shoes just so. Be forewarned, though, these imitation shoes will make you just as irresistible to women as Jackson was (circa 1983):<\/p>\n

\n

You will get a lot of attention from people, people will dance around you on the dance floor, and you will feel a bit shallow, but you love it!<\/p>\n

The best chat up line possible is to ask someone to join you on your dance floor so they stand\/dance on your tiles, which puts them basically on top of you. Enjoy! Do not use these shoes for evil!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So there it is, plain and simple: don’t go around breaking young girls’ hearts. [Instructables<\/a>]<\/p>\n
