Eamonn Kilbride, 46, had just finished dancing to Korean pop star Psy's wildly popular "Gangnam Style" at his company's office party when he noticed chest pains around his heart and passed out onto the floor of Lancashire's Whitehall Country Club.
Paramedics tried to revive the man, but their efforts proved unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at the Royal Blackburn Hospital a few minutes after 11:30pm.
A spokesman for Blackburn coroner's office told Britain's that Kilbride died from acute heart failure caused by coronary artery atheroma, which can often derive from vigorous exercise.
According to Kilbride's wife Julie, the former IT manager was a "loving husband" and avid golfer who "was always the life of the party and loved dancing."
"We were having a fantastic time at the Christmas party and Eamonn had just finished dancing to 'Gangnam Style,'" she said.
"He was up on stage and entertaining everybody. He said he had a bit of a pain and just collapsed.
