An attention-grabbing new viral video has appeared online featuring several Swedish Marines performing some spectacular lipsynching and choreography to iconic GREASE showstopper "Greased Lightning" and it is now available to view in full.

The corps can be seen embracing the inherent machismo and musicality of the catchy '50s-inspired tune in the new clip - not to mention the theatricality of it all, as well!

"Ultramatic," indeed!

Of note, the Marines showcased were filmed in Afghanistan, where they are currently stationed.

Additionally, the vocals are sourced from the legendary soundtrack to the 1978 film starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John.
