Thanks to the internet and social media, law enforcement has become more personable and accessible than ever. In such a divisive time, it's important for people to feel like they can trust the men and women who have committed their lives to serve their communities.

Officer Charlie Kingery is the perfect model of how police officers can connect and humanize themselves online. Recently, he participated in "The Git Up" challenge, a popular internet trend that's swept across the nation on the hit mobile app Tik Tok.

Officer Kingery, who works at the Lawrence Police Department in Indiana, couldn't resist when his friends offered him the challenge. The lyrics to the song are hilariously timed with the officer's movements.

The infectious track encourages every listener to "throw down and take a spin" with the "cowboy boogie." Officer Kingery's rendition was complete in his police uniform, which made it all the more entertaining for watchers around the web.

Most people think of police officers as stoic, all-business professionals, but Officer Kingery shows us that they're just regular people who love to laugh, dance, and have a good time like anyone else. In an interview with Fox 59, the officer explains that he's always loved to dance, and he's perfected his moves by dancing around the kitchen with his children.

Comments have shown how happy the public is to gain a new perspective on law enforcement after this video. One user wrote, "I love when people with such serious jobs do fun things like this."

The inspiration behind the wildly popular track by artist Blanco Brown comes from his grandmother. In the interview with Fox 59 he reveals that she always used to say, "Y'all better git up and do ya'lls work."
