Prince Harry turned heads with his facial expressions before he and Meghan Markle left an Invictus Games event early.
The Duke of Sussex joined in the fun during a wheelchair basketball match when cameras zoomed in on him as part of a 'Moose Cam' segment.
During a half-time interval at the wheelchair basketball final, Harry enthusiastically participated in the 'Moose Cam', a playful take on the traditional 'kiss cam' seen at US sporting events.
When the camera found him in the stands at the Vancouver Convention Centre, the prince smiled, stuck out his tongue and waggled his hands beside his head.

While Meghan declined to join in the moose pose, she roared with laughter at her husband's antics.
The crowd, watching USA versus Israel, whooped with delight at Harry's willingness to make light of himself.
The Duke and Duchess left the match at half-time after a full day of engagement with the Games.
Sources at the event reported the couple had spent considerable time talking to friends and family of competitors.

They had also posed for dozens of selfies throughout the day with attendees.
Their early departure was attributed to fatigue from their packed schedule of events and interactions with the Invictus Games community.
Harry appeared to respond to Donald Trump's recent criticism with good humour, delighting crowds at the Invictus Games in Vancouver by performing a playful moose impression.
His lighthearted participation came just after Trump's dismissal of calls for Harry's deportation, with the former US president telling the New York Post: "I'll leave him alone. He's got enough problems with his wife. She's terrible."

Trump's remarks continue a pattern of criticism towards the Sussexes, with the former president previously stating he is "not a fan" of Meghan and claiming "Harry is whipped" and "is being led around by his nose."
The controversy stems partly from the Heritage Foundation's suggestion that Harry either lied about past drug use on his visa application or received special treatment from President Biden.
Meghan had previously branded Trump "divisive and misogynistic" in a 2016 interview and openly supported Biden.

In what appeared to be a veiled response to Trump's comments, Harry delivered a powerful speech at Saturday's opening ceremony at BC Place Stadium.
He spoke of the competitors' "courage, values and humanity" during a time "when there is no shortage of crises, no absence of uncertainty, no lack of weak moral character in the world."
The prince revealed the Games were born from a personal promise after his military service, pledging "to do whatever I could to help my fellow brothers and sisters heal."
