A video showing a pair of dancing American priests in Rome has gone viral over web.
The Rev David Rider, 29, and the Rev John Gibson, 28, were captured on camera during a fundraiser at an elite US seminary near the Vatican, as they took the crowd by surprise with a tap-dance and an Irish dance routine, Sky News reported.
The pair then started to compete, while the video being shot by journalist Joan Lewis shot at the North American College in April, who posted it on YouTube, where it has had some 260,000 views.
While most of the comments were appreciative and positive, few found it disrespectful to dance under a crucifix and a portrait of Pope Francis.
