Swiss police fly an Irish tricolor from a federal building to applaud Garda’s performance in the Viral Dance Challenge.

Swiss police last month challenged their Irish colleagues to dance as part of the viral #JerusalemGlobal Dance Challenge on social media, and it is safe to say that Garda accepted the challenge.

In a video posted on social media yesterday, dozens of uniformed Gardas across Ireland danced to the tune of a popular song, dancing on beaches, roofs, roads and in the shade of mountains, and even Gorda horses appeared. .
