Canadian Police Accepts a Challenge, Gets Whole Town Involved as They Perform to Backstreet Boys Song

Canada is dubbed one of the most peaceful countries in the world. So, does that mean that its police doesn’t have a handful of criminals to deal with? Luckily, it’s exactly like that.

The police officers of Saskatoon had some free time while at the job so they decided to make the citizens have some fun while watching them perform at one of the best songs from the 90’s, Backstreet Boys’ “I Want It That Way.”

Many of you may have already forgotten this huge hit, but these officers are here to refresh your memory and remind you of the time when this boys’ band was stealing the hearts of many both with their hits and their appearance.

The video starts with two of the officers in the station discussing whether one of them recognizes any of the people in the lineup. And as one would assume that lineup consists of criminals, it doesn’t. Instead it consists of other cops. The officer than says how he remembers the “suspect” sang I Want It That Way after which they ask the cops in the lineup to sing the song one by one.

Seconds later, they all sing together in a perfect harmony.

The challenge then shows other police officers lipsyncing the hit while at the airfield. The story continues at the bridge and then at the banks of a river. Honestly, it just gets better and better as you watch it. We are sure they spent a lot of time practicing this awesome dancing and singing routine.

The best part is when some of the cops enter a doughnut shop and sing to what is known as police officers’ most favorite food; doughnuts, of course. It’s both entertaining and hilarious and we can’t stop watching what these guys have prepared for us.

The video ends with the two of the cops who were at the dark room at the start of the song dancing together with mascots. The public follows and takes part in the singing and performing.

This truly is something that we don’t get to see every day. Police and the public having fun and making everyone laugh.

After the video was posted on YouTube, it gathered many people’s attention. Up to date, it has been seen more than 300,000 times.

This truly is an awesome way for the police to spread the message that no matter the job they do, like fighting crime and making sure everyone is safe and sound, they are just ordinary people like us who need to have some fun from time to time.

Check how these officers pulled this challenge in the video below. You are going to love it!
