This is the term they use in prison when someone gets hanged.
There were many hangings in Berlin, in which the victims would twitch and jump at the end of a rope...hence, doing the [Spandau Ballet]. Also, there were frequent suicides of Nazis being held for trial at the [Spandau] prison. A hanged person tends to jerk around and dance if the death is caused by strangulation (and not a snap) they say. As the years went by it progressed to floorless dance or waltz or the air [rumba].
