Mariachi dancer entertains busy commuters on the 5 South freeway in San Diego by dancing in support of the 'La Raza' movement.

The video, which was shot on, shows Frankie Javier Ortiz dancing on a bridge over a busy freeway near San Diego, California, by a Mexican flag.

Frankie Ortiz says that the reason why he dances on the bridge is to 'make the busy commuters smile'.

"It also symbolises Mexican pride", he explained. "I want to give it back to the Mexican community in San Diego", he continued.

Frankie Ortiz has been dancing since October 2017 and he explained that dancing has always been a hobby of his.

He said that he got the idea from his mother: "I actually asked my mom if I should go out and exercise or dance and she said whatever makes the people happy so I give her all the credit."

"My full name is Frankie Javier Ortiz and I dance on the freeway because I love making the busy commuters smile. I started dancing last October so it’s been a while now. More then life itself, dancing has always been a hobby of mine and being able to dance for San Diegans is a blessing.

I actually asked my mom if I should go out and exercise or dance and she said whatever makes the people happy so I give her all the credit. I found this bridge by the Mexican flag it has right at the start of the stairs and thought it’s a great way to support the 'La Raza' movement."
