It's been the unexpected hit of the summer. College bands have copied it, newly weds have woven it into their celebrations - and now everyone's favourite prison dance troupe have adopted South Korean rapper Psy's Gangnam Style.
The inmates of Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center in the Philippines are famous for performing an epic Michael Jackson Thriller performance in 2007, which now has over 50 million views.
And now the world renowned dancing inmates are back with their Gangnam Style performance that has instantly gone viral.
Even though it was pouring rain, the large group danced to Psy's hit single that has taken the world by storm for visitors to the prison.
Hundreds of the prisoners performed the routine, thrusting, waving and jerkily popping their limbs to the catchy tune, clad in their bright red uniforms.
The inmates - of which nearly 1,000 participated - join a host of groups eager to parody the crazy choreography which includes the iconic horse-riding dance move.
Sadly, their wardens would not allow them the use of a pool, sauna or elevator so they could completely mimic the video, which sees the eccentric rapper relaxing in a swimming pool or enjoying a steam bath in a towel.
They are the latest to mimic the video, which went viral through social networks and was shared and tweeted by celebrities across the world.
