The Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) has described a viral video of one of its servicemen breakdancing on the runway as “creative marshalling".
In a Facebook post on Wednesday (Sep 3), RSAF explained that the video was “not done on a whim".
The RSAF identified the serviceman as ME1 Tan Wen Kai and said he was dancing to guide one of its F-15SG fighter jets as part of a planned segment for its recent Exercise Pitch Black held in Darwin, Australia,
“Creative marshalling is a tradition for many fighter squadrons and is deliberately scheduled into long exercises and during competitions to boost the morale of both the air and ground crew,” the RSAF wrote.
“Due planning and supervision are given to ensure that the creative marshalling is operationally safe,” it added.
ME1 Tan first posted the 15-second video on his Facebook page on Monday and in the comments, revealed that his performance got the thumbs-up from one of the pilots, who said: "Wow, good job. Nice show man!"
As of 8pm on Wednesday, the video had chalked up more than 2,400 likes and shares combined.
