A man in Denver now has an epic photo that was taken by police. 45-year-old Michael Whitington gave the camera a huge toothy grin for his mug shot.

Landing in a situation where you need to have a mug shot taken isn’t usually a pleasant thing, but some people deserve credit for making the best out of it.

Take one man in Denver who now has an epic photo that was taken by police. No closed eyes or hateful snarls in this one.

Instead, 45-year-old Michael Whitington gave the camera a huge toothy grin. He’s missing some teeth, but Whitington didn’t seem to mind showing the world his big smile.

His eyes are wide open, making it appear as though he was pretty excited for his mug shot to be taken. According to police, Whitington allegedly robbed a bank and then hopped on a light-rail train in an effort to get away.

Law enforcement officials were able to stop the train a few blocks away from the crime scene and arrest the suspect. Whitington is now facing a charge of robbery.

Even though the crime is a serious one, many are left getting a good laugh at his photo, which is being referred to as the happiest mug shot ever taken.
