Everyone everywhere is talking about this new "Gangnam Style" song by Psy. You know, the one that has kicked off this whole look like you're horse-riding, giddy-up dance craze? Yeah, I watched the original video. I laughed. But I've gotta be honest, I think I like the spoof from the 22nd Company at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis a bit better.
OK, a lot better. Because heck, what's NOT to like about a gaggle of extremely good-looking men wearing skinny white pants dancing around ... pelvic thrusts included? Yeah, that's what I thought.
Watch the Navy men shake it to "Gangnam Style," here:
Wowza! The energy! The choreography! The tight pants! Thrusting and hip movements aside, you can tell that these guys clearly had a blast putting this thing together. Heck, if the Naval Academy is this fun all the time, sign me up!
More from The Stir: 'Call Me Maybe' Gets the Military Treatment -- and It's Amazing (VIDEO)
The video, which is a spirit spot (something that's encouraged by the Naval Academy to boost morale), already has more than 100,000 views on YouTube. I bet they had an inkling that their booty shakin' would become viral, and now I'm just waiting to see them on the morning TV news circuit. I say live it up! It's good that these guys can have a few laughs, let off some steam, and enjoy themselves every once in a while. Of course, it's best when we get to check out the end result.
What do you think of the video?

It's good to see even the Midshipmen blowing off steam. Besides, this is nothing... You should see some of the guys at the Navy formals!
They can do this because it is part of moral building. These videos are made every week at the acadmey and played at pep rallys before the weekend sporting events. These midshipmen have given up a regular college experience to become an elite, specifically trained officer in the Navy or Marine Corps by getting their college degree at USNA. The standards for conduct are very strict (1 night off campus per MONTH during the first year) and this is a sober, spirit filled way of having fun allowed to the Midshipmen.
WOW!
