These Police Officers from Canada lip-sync Backstreet Boys and it’s too funny to miss

We’ve all heard the famous Backstreet Boys song, “I Want it That Way,” most of us have even sung along and know most of the words. The famous song was released in 1999, and even all this time later, it’s still making a buzz!

This time it’s not the Backstreet Boys who are making the buzz, it’s these cops from Saskatoon, Canada, who sarcastically lip-sync the song and deliver an epic performance! The video starts off with five cops in a line-up, one by one they sing a portion of the chorus.

A minute into the video, the camera changes to a full-on music video, they’ve even got a police airplane in the video

Dozen’s of Officers volunteered their free time to make the video happen, they went all out and it shows!

In the airplane scene, one Officer stands in the middle of a group with a flight helmet on he perfectly lip-syncs the words, hand gestures and all.

The Saskatoon Police went above and beyond to make the video a success, they shot scenes at multiple locations to make it like a professional music video. I’m not sure if they practiced or just knew the song, but their lip-syncing is impeccable!
