A good-sport brother followed through on a childhood bet that he made with his sister and performed an amazing solo dance at her wedding.
The bet was made at a family wedding in 2011, when bride Grace Nation was eight and her younger brother, Grant Brockman, was six.
The confident siblings, from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, bet each other that they would be first to the altar, shaking on the moment, much to their parents’ amusement.
Fast forward 14 years, and with Grace, 23, set to get married talk of the bet emerged once more.

Unfortunately for Grant, 21, there was video evidence of the initial moment, so he promised his sister to go through with the bet, meaning a 90-second dance to a song of the other person’s choosing.
On October 2, at Hotel Domestique, near Greenville, South Carolina, Grant took the dance floor after Grace and her husband had finished their speeches.
As James Brown’s “I Feel Good” began to play, Grant busted a series of moves across the floor, much to the delight of screaming guests.
The moment was captured by Grace’s friend and videographer, Jett Stephens, and when she later shared the clip online, it soon received a viral response.
Grace said: “Part of me feels like I got the ultimate win in this bet, especially now that millions of people have watched him do the dance.
“But more than anything, watching him out there felt like such a full-circle moment.
“Growing up with Grant meant always laughing and always having a built-in best friend by my side.
“There was never a dull moment with him—if you’re around Grant, you’re guaranteed to be smiling.
“The response has been more than we ever could have imagined.

“As for the response on social media, I’m just so grateful that a moment that brought us so much joy has been able to reach so many other people and bring them laughter too.”
