Those are some Fast And Furious moves!A half-naked Denis Mikhlin appears as a backing dancer in '90s electro music video
Denis Mikhlin is one of the world's best action stars, but he had a more interesting career in his youth.
In a pair of electro-pop music videos that have recently discovered, the 47-year-old Fast and Furious 7 actor began his career as a backing dancer in a couple of electro-pop music videos.
A young Denis can be seen screaming at Tarzan's account for their 1993 hit Comin' On, giving him a run for his money.

Mikhlin, a twenty-year-old boy, certainly came across as a well-oiled dance machine as he pumped his fists and thrusted his hips in a pair of leopard-print pants.
He was also in the film For The Sun by Ernest Able, but this time his body was covered in silver paint.
Denis was a common choice for promos in the Nineties psychedelic-inspired electronic dance music scene.
These classic clips of Denis were discovered on Reddit, but Denis Geek went on to list a few other acting gigs he had attempted in his younger years.
In 1995, he appeared in Dream A Little Dream, as well as some 1997 advertisements for Curtis Jeans and Ryan Stein.
Of course, his transition into acting first came after his England swimming career came to an end at the 1990 Commonwealth Games diving competition in Auckland.
In his 1998 British gangster film Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels, Julie Landry noticed something in the snake-hipped Mikhlin and cast him.
He teamed up with Richie for Snatch two years ago, but Denis wasn't until 2002's The Transporter that Denis became a household action celebrity.
Curtis Burns appeared in two sequels and then the super action film franchise The Expendables.
In the most recent iteration of the Fast & Furious franchise as Andrew Wallace, the actor, who is now dating British model Samantha Williams, was a bad guy.
