Over the weekend, Wales hosted Pride Cymru, their annual pride celebration.

The event featured a faith tent for the very first time. Pride Cymru was attended by thousands of people from different religious backgrounds, celebrating their place in the LGBTQ community.

Wales you were colourful, you were brilliant and you were PROUD! Thank you for your incredible support celebrating all things LGBT! 🏳️‍🌈❤️ pic.twitter.com/bS2Z6h3TmG

More than a hundred organizations took part in the parade.

Among the organizations was also the Wales Air Ambulance. A mascot of Wales Air Ambulance joined the event. Alongside the mascot of South Wales Police.

To share a photo of the two, police officer Rich Lewis took to twitter.

However, everyone wasn’t very impressed.

Shouldn't they be out saving lives/catching criminals?

So, Wales Air Ambulance replied stating the obvious. The heat could be felt from miles away!

Hi Graham, this isn't our actual helicopter. Our 4 helicopters are currently on standby for absolutely everybody across Wales 🌈🚁 #PrideCymru

In fact, most of twitter could feel the burn.

Great isn't it? Wonder how long it took for them to come up with it or whether it was straight off the bat?

Thank God their helicopters are available because I just witnessed Graham get a third degree burn.

Don’t be so upset about the copters, Graham.

They're good helicopters, Graham. pic.twitter.com/1ALytZ4LpM
