Every day, Officer Bryson Lystrup of the Police Grove Police Department in Utah visits his favorite 7-Eleven. The manager, Sunny, says the officer is "always in here, always dancing" but last week was the first time the staff ever caught him breaking it down on video. Sunny couldn't help but post the clip on the store's Facebook page — and now Officer Lystrup is becoming an internet superstar.
Last week, the happy-go-lucky policeman was in the store when he started singing Silento's "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" The 7-Eleven employees asked him if he knew the famous dance, which has been featured in tons of recent viral videos. Of course he knew the dance, and of course he wanted to show it off — but only if no one filmed him. The staff promised not to pull out their camera phones, but Officer Lystrup totally forgot about those faithful surveillance cameras!
As soon as the police department saw the video, Lystrup's fellow officers made sure to copy the tape on multiple sources. You know, for prosperity's sake.
Thankfully, he's been a great sport. Though he admits to being embarrassed about the fact his dance moves are now shared with the world, Officer Lystrup says he hopes the video helps the public see that police officers are humans, too.
