Carroll's daughter, also the choreographer, posted the video on YouTube so family members could watch it.

"People need a good belly laugh, and to be able to smile and that's what it's all about!" said Bert Carroll.
The men all have a musical and dancing background.
Carroll is an accomplished pianist and songwriter.

"I think we could spin, but we'd end up with vertigo," said Carroll. "You wouldn't see us for a week!"

"We ought to do Lady Gaga," Carroll said.
