An estimated 4,000 silent dancers had turned up for the spontaneous event, news of which is broadcast by emails and messages between friends.

The plan for these events is simple: attract as many people as possible to turn up with their iPods, and at a set time get everyone dancing to their different tunes across a public space.

The Victoria Station flash mob took place at 6.53pm, with 4,000 revellers taking part in a ten-second countdown before the scheduled time, when the concourse erupted into whoops and cheers, according to the Evening Standard.

The crowd then danced madly for two hours – until the police arrived to break-up the party.
