These police officers know how to keep the vibe on the street relaxed.

A group of seven Queensland police officers in Brisbane patrolling near the secure zone of the G20 Summit on Sunday decided to let their hair down and get into the party mood.

The group performed The Nutbush line dance to Tina Turner's classic "Nutbush City Limits" opposite Irish Murphy’s pub at after being challenged by a group of ladies on a night out.

David Licence, who filmed the event, told the Courier Mail it was great to see the police enjoying themselves.

“They were looking pretty bored where they were standing, doing their job of course, but I think by about midnight the leaders were all tucked up in bed,” he said.

A Queensland Police spokesperson told Mashable they "fully support these officers."

"First and foremost, the role of officers during the G20 was to be ambassadors for the [police] service and Australia, while ensuring the safety and security of the leaders at the Summit," the spokesperson said. "This at times can be a fine balance. The Queensland Police fully support these officers and we believe we got this balance right."
