WATCH: RAF Brize Norton Wowed By Impromptu Tongan 'Sipi Tau'
The Tongan Defence Force has caused quite a stir by performing the nation's 'Sipi Tau' after stepping out onto RAF Brize Norton.
Tonga's manager Commander Sione Lino told Forces TV the team had performed the war dance after they were surprised by a visit from the Tongan ambassador upon arrival.

They made the long journey in order to take part in the 2015 International Defence Rugby Competition.
And they'll hope their performance of the 'Sipi Tau' has shown their opponents they mean business - with their first game against the RAF on Thursday afternoon.
