One child did just that when cameras caught him in a crowd shot during a live news broadcast. Instead of screaming and waving for the camera like the rest of the kids around him, the boy struck poses and mugged for the camera. The best moment?

Four snaps in a Z formation, new best friend. You saw an opportunity, ran with it, and now you’re a GIF. True Internet hero.
