Now, take a look at the video once again. It begins with them posing for the paparazzi. Of course, the Pope seems to be in a serious mood unlike his previous meetings with other world leaders that helped Jimmy to easily add up the spice in making it a really convincing video.

Anyway there were moments when the duo actually smiled at each other as well!
