ghost riding

Dancing outside vehicle

Ghost riding is exiting a moving vehicle to walk or dance alongside or on top of it while it rolls forward unattended.

The stunt emerged from Bay Area hip-hop culture in the mid-2000s: He got out and started ghost riding down the block.

Also called ghost riding the whip, where whip is slang for car.

The practice is dangerous and often illegal.
