So here’s the story from A to Zee …. Sgt Gary Watts of the Devon & Cornwall Police said if he got 5,000 followers on Twitter he would do the ‘Gangnam Style’ dance on YouTube.
Or did one of his colleagues stitch him up good and proper, and simply tell everyone else that’s what he said ???
The story from the ‘horses mouth’ about events leading up to the making of the video can be read here –> http://www.devon-cornwall.police.uk/ABOUTUS/BLOGS/Pages/voiceofanofficer.aspx?post=7112553400058575462
Either way, the Twitterati responded in their droves …. and @SgtGaryWatts soon went over the magic 5,000 followers mark …. so he had no choice, did he ??? 
Add into the mixture a very good cause which is supported by many of the active Police Tweeters, #JoshuasJourney (@journeyjoshuas on Twitter) – a fund to help 12 yr old Joshua Wilson, who was diagnosed with his first brain tumour in 2004 age 3 and a half & following complex surgery due to the location of the tumour on the brain stem, was left with complex physical disabilities & needs – and you have the makings of an amazing journey for everyone involved.
Watch the video above … then don’t forget to click on www.superjosh.co.uk and make a donation to help raise the £25,000 needed to fund extensive house adaptations, inc a ceiling track hoist, a special medical bath, building work & other basic equipment to make caring for Josh easier and give him the best quality of life possible.
And then get on Twitter, follow @journeyjoshuas and all the #GangnamPoliceman team that made this all possible: @SgtGaryWatts – @WildlifeCrimePC – @Cvinniev – @ShinyHorse – @ChrisBraddon – @SamBiggs and the guy who put the video together @PeteAppleyard – each any every one of them is a real life SUPERSTAR !!

This is absolutely brilliant and in such a good cause, I had to reblog even though I’ve only just posted. I hope you enjoy!

Thanks to Rebecca Bradley for highlighting this excellent post from Sgt Gary Watts. I swear such has been the intensity of The Era of Hermitude that I’ve somehow evaded Psy and his crazy song right until watching the Christmas edition of Top of the Pops. Seriously, hadn’t a CLUE! But these dudes knew the score and they produced this video to make good on a bet and raise some cash for a wee boy. Happy New Year to you and if you’re feeling the Gangnam vibe, you know what to do. I’ll put you in the capable hands of the fellas in the dashing uniforms of Falmouth : )

I subscribe to Rebecca’s blog and have just reblogged too! In fact that’s the first time I’ve ever reblogged anything. I even went to Google to find out how to do it. Good luck with that infernal song and raising the cash ; ) x
Awesome! And the say you don’t have senses of humour. What a great video for a great cause.

Absolutely fabulous – well worth a dontaion! x
Heehee, very funny Rebecca. Thanks for sharing. Can’t wait to play it to my daughter later – Gangnam is her fave tune
I am surprised that the readership of the Daily Mail are’nt complaining that the cops should be out catching criminals!¬! Of course this good news police story hasn’t been reported in the Daily Mail because it doesn’t fit their government backed anti-police agenda
Well doen to all concerned, and good luck with the fund raising for Joshua
