Pope Leo XIV has gone viral after surprising crowds in Madrid with an unexpected hand gesture that many younger people immediately recognized.
During his first official visit to Spain on June 6, the pontiff was spotted mimicking the popular “6-7” gesture while greeting people from the popemobile, drawing smiles from onlookers and quickly spreading across social media.
The moment came just weeks after the Pope was seen learning the same gesture from a group of Catholic children at the Vatican.
