Comedian Betty White might be the only 93-year-old with more than 1 million followers on Twitter, and she keeps showing us why everyday.



Even on her birthday. Especially on her birthday.

White turned 93 on Jan. 17, and the cast and crew of her show "Hot in Cleveland" decided to surprise her with a hula flash mob to celebrate. They captured it in a video that has been viewed more than 2 million times over the weekend.



In the video, White, who is being escorted around set in a golf cart, is asked about her birthday. She's told there "might" be a celebration for it. TV Land said in the video description that it's tradition for White to be "greeted by her assistant with a hula."



For her birthday, though, they put on a special flash mob with -- what else? -- a hula theme. When she realizes it's more than her usual start to the day, White lights up with delight, clapping her hands and opening her arms in love.



Dozens of dancers join the fun and White gets more and more giddy as she continues to recognize new faces joining the performance. By the end she is reeling in excitement.



"At 93 you shouldn't be doing this," White jokes when she finally catches her breath.



But the actress is known for doing much more than she "should be doing" at any age. Here's hoping the big 9-3 is the best year yet for the lovable Golden Girl.
