The brilliant moment Commonwealth Games volunteers danced to Queen while raking the volleyball court

While the Commonwealth Games may seem to be faultless and running with ease, with huge celebrity presenters like Clare Balding who you can read more about here hosting the show, there is a lot of work going on behind the scenes. From cleaning to priming pitches and surfaces ready for the athletes there is a whole team of volunteers at the Commonwealth Games, which is taking place in Birmingham.

This includes two volunteers who had a great time while raking the sand for the volleyball games. With Queen's iconic 'I Want To Break Free' playing in the background and using their rakes as props the duo burst into dance, emulating the memorable '80s music video where Freddie Mercury hoovers around the other band members dressed in a PVC skirt and pink top.

Their moves included twirls, kicks, using the rake as an air guitar, the splits, and pointing to the crowd. The crowd was loving the display and happily clapped and danced along.
