A photo of Pope Francis has gone viral on social media after he was captured in a classic rapper pose during a visit to the Central African Republic (CAR).
The now famous photo was taken during a speech in the capital, Bangui, and has been tweeted more than 100,000 times.
Tweeters have been making thousands of imaginary rap lyrics, known as bars, under the hashtag #PopeBars.
The Pope was in the CAR as part of a three-nation tour to Africa which also took him to Kenya and Uganda.
