“Aircraft Carrier Style” becomes popular in China
An image from televised footage of China's first successful landings of a jet fighter aboard its only aircraft carrier has become a wildly popular internet meme since the video aired on Saturday.
In the picture, two crew members aboard the vessel Liaoning - wearing bright yellow vests and helmets with their backs to the camera - are seen crouching and using their outstretched right arms to point and direct a J-15 jet, while their left arms remain behind their backs.
The image has gone viral, with mainland internet users dubbing the crew members' pose "Aircraft Carrier Style", a reference to the Korean Gangnam Style song.
Countless people have posted pictures of themselves online doing similar poses, sometimes with funny personal touches. |
