We need cops like this in every city! Although I'd might get tempted to get cuffed by one of them ;)

Thanks @elainepul, glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :-)

The heels look great on those ladies, bring it on! Classy, elegant, and a touch of authority, right on the money.

@elainpul - Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :-)

i lived in chengdu for 4 1/2 years and i can say this never happened, this is just very - VERY poor reporting

And who is she to judge them?

@Jeff ah yeahh true

Women always hate attractive women

@***** you really think that women can fight in high heels ?  DEADLY WEAPONS ? really... do u know how much time and money it will requir for them to be trained in combat with high heels on ?

Hey man I would love to see some Chinese policewomen marching down my street with heels on.

0:18 PARIS ??

Never seen so many dislikes in a less-than-a-minute video before... until I saw this one

Actually, a good knock with a 3 or 4 in heel has been known to be a pretty good weapon. :)

I'd probably try and get friendly with a cop wearing heels than want to argue with one wearing jackboots! The heeled/jackbooted ones are still in charge anyway. Might be hard to work out what I say but think about it on a basic level to begin with.If you are with the police, which one do you prefer? If not, Which one do you prefer? Your answer alone will help you decide!

@AyanaLinval Thanks for the support. We think the policy is pretty ridiculous.

Physically fit females in smart uniforms, minimal makeup and high heels are a sad sad example of a police force? Hah! You could imagine wearing high heels only if you were 160 cm in height and 46 Kg's. This is a police force that projects confidence during patrols and gets attention in return. Thumbs UP!

this is so sexist! heels are soo pretty i love them but that's fashion i can understand if it was for some kind of photo-shoot or a charity police walk-a-thon or even a party where u dress in uniform something like that or even for an office but still not even i think being forced to wear heels is completely sexist and for a policewoman dangerous this is just beyond ridiculous

Words of truth, my friend.

There is a level of authority that is shown when a woman wears a good heel. Personally I think it should be a choice of what height the heel is. On the other hand, how is she supposed to keep up with the offender when she's in heels? So yes, the authority point works to a certain extent, but they're giving up practicality.

impractical? you got no idea they are trained to fight wearing high heels!

dont judge others !!

It seems you've never been to the US or China. I've traveled extensively for work and even lived in China for a few years, I can tell you that I feel safer in Shanghai then I do in New York. Shaighai doesn't have an unconstitutional 'stop and frisk' policy, and their cops do not carry tasers and pepper sprays (and usually not even guns) or treat the population like the 'enemy.' The moment you get off a plane in the US and get greeted by the TSA, you know you are in a police state....

Actually when i was living China they really afraid from their police.It's like if u hit policeman .. it means you're hitting Chinese government or ideal or whatever.So their police are very very confident.Also when it comes to police women ..if you're talking about detectives ..who cares what they wear coz they even don't wear uniforms.If they're patrolwomen wearing uniform then their main responsibility is preventing crimes by patrolling in public.So who cares high heels again.

In American police procedurals? ALL THE TIME! In real life? NEVER!

Best Q and A ever dude...much love.

In the police force or at work, high heel are alway impractical, women just don't get it.

A Chengdu woman in heels beat me in ping-pong... I've seen hundreds of Chengdu women climbing steep mountains in heels on holidays. Maybe it reflects a greater misogynist culture--I could believe it. But for whatever reason, Chinese women (and I've lived in Chengdu in particular) love high-heels.

hey, now. I agree that their delivery wasn't all that great in many parts but they did bring up many parts. I think making female police officers wear heels does force them to prioritize their conforming to the social gender identities before their actual occupation, which is a police. Many officers may not feel comfortable with this sort of new exposure. Police are meant to be seen as figures of authority, not figures of sexuality.

Yes. A lot can change in two years, including our style. Please check out our latest videos.

i go to chengdu next month and i hope to see this. china looks fun and cool.

Just want to point out that "Chengdu" is pronounced the way it looks, not "Shengdu" as you have done, just a friendly fyi.

cops need love too

rollerblades are pretty practical for flat urban territory, you barely break a sweat at running speeds, but scooters-like devices are probably better since you can quickly transition to running on foot

HA, HA, HA, HA...I AM URINATING MYSELF OF SO MUCH LAUGHING WITH THIS....

Actually, in China, there are strict laws governing when a police officer can carry firearms. Most 'street beat' and 'traffic' cops cannot carry firearms when executing those duties. So no, cops can't just 'gun down' a suspect in China. Also, as been mentioned before by people who lived/traveled/worked in Chengdu, this 'story' is completely bogus.

I fail to see the point of this... The shoes had English logo on it, hence it wasn't designed by the Chinese. And sexism? Well... you can really only start to call that sexism if male policemen are able to wear heels without getting laughed to death. My conclusion: video = fail, period

@SalafeeSpot When the clothing inhibits your ability to preform the task at hand, yes. It's a uniform for a reason, your clothing shouldn't keep you from doing your job. Ask yourself this, if you're getting stabbed by some drugged up phyco are you going to feel safe when some woman in three inch heels comes clopping down the ally, barely able to run, let alone save you? Yeah? Add a pencil skirt to that that cuts her stride in half. Ok, have fun with that.

Thanks for the support, sapoviajante

She's right about it being impractical. If these ladies can run a mile under 7 mintues in heels, I approve.

I would be at police headquarters waiting with my camera for them to come out, and looking for one to flirt with and possibly ask out to dinner when she is off duty.

Interesting. Perhaps it was a pilot program in a small area?

Don't you know that as part of the strenuous training programs they go through, Chinese women officers are trained to turn most props into weapons? We throw shoes like ninja stars. They are deadly even without any shoes. :P And btw, a random fact: There are more females in the Chinese army than the whole population of the US.

How often do female police ever catch a fleeing suspect? Especially if the suspect is male. They might as well wear heals and call for back up because that's what they would've done anyway.

A harsh bias review on a barely researched  "story". Now, I'm all for equality, but I'm also for news that doesn't feel so much like thinly veiled "opinion propaganda".  How did this new female police program start? What are the operating regulations of the clothing standards for the female police women? How many hours are these police officers required to walk while patrolling? Is this a pilot program? (because if it is, then it's still going to have a lot of changes before the final sign off. After all when females first started in the American military, they too were required to wear heels and skirts, whilst only being in careers that were face value or paper work only.)  I think it's good to see that China is starting to embrace having a female work force within the area of law enforcement. As time goes on the rules will change to something more effective and common sense, whilst less focused upon  gender and aesthetics alone.  Instead of reporting with so little information and so much...*opinion*, it would be good of those at Buzz:60 to try and add more to the story, and stop trying so hard to connect with an audience. We come for the report, not the bad acting and horrible jokes. Don't be the tryhard. Sure they're interesting for a short while, but then they get annoying very quickly.  This video alone feels more like an alienation of the viewer, than trying to share knowledge in an entertaining way.  Too much "sass." Not enough smart. Too much arrogance. I don't even want to know what you mean by "authentic sense of humor"  The quirk is less eccentric fun, and more like someone singing off key. Loudly. Guys, stop trying so hard. Let your writers make a basic script and allow your video cast to improv. with the only mandate of "make sure to tell all the facts." People don't want news that's been glossed over with opinion and too little information. We see that everywhere on the internet, and always on the main news stations.  

Female officers in heels look elegant. Respect.

The only thing "disgusting" is that I will never get my 55 seconds back

It is a different kind of style for the policeman and women, I am sure there is much more disgusting clothes and wearing than that in some countries.

Hi heels is the way!! Should be done here in the US

While in college getting a degree in law enforcement and police sciences I met a couple of women from China who were studying management in our Criminal Justice program. Believe me, even in 3 inch heels they could beat your ass. They were smart and motivated.

I want my 55 seconds back. this is DUMB.

Limited mental capacity, how did sexism get involved?

55 seconds of my life I'll never get back.

Did you mean minds? And in your definitions you're calling most of the modern day world small minded...

So explain how they chase after criminals on the run in those heels? Do they have to take off the heels, put on their rollerblades, then skate after them?

BEST COMMENT! Why can't more people react like this?

cant you? many people can run in heels roller blades could be a convert like heels

I think it's delicious! I would have liked to wear heels instead of boots and loafers many days! Once you get used to them, you can run, jump and fight in them (heels that is) DELICIOUS!

Thanks for your feedback.

shame the heels are deadly. the damage a kick or hit from one of those is likely to hospitalise people

Even though we all have a thought. When they wear those, they can't be taken to as you know ... Cheer up ... It's just a video

Chengdu Tianfu Software Park, or as you label it 'Chengdu Square', is a very vibrant and rapidly growing high-end industrial district. It's not somewhere you'll be chasing down muggers, quite likely. Additionally, as you didn't point out implicitly, it's only eight women. I would imagine this is more of a state-sponsored relations and protection service for the successful of this technology park: consequently, you appear to be jealous and petty in your assessment of this aesthetic choice.

Heels for women police officers are appropriate at banquettes... I suppose.... but not chasing down criminals! It would make as much sense to do this as it would to make female firefighter wear heels during vehicle extrication. Not practical for anyone!

Sorry you feel that way, Francis. We were looking at the absurdity of putting women in high heels and rollerblades to fight crime. It was not a comment on race or nationality.

Use the heel to jab someone in the eye, ouch D:

Those heels are deadly weapons. Does the TSA say anything about high heels?

you have to see the heels...there are a whole line of them that are made for walking....and they have air pads just like sneakers....oh and if you are not 210 lbs...it makes a huge differance too....so thanks for the "medical facts".....

i'd love to wear high heels, but i've not found any strong enough

Bit like watching a cat chew on a spanner.

thinly veiled sexism works for me

... haha could you imagine them pulling off their heels and doing 100 mtrs in 10 seconds and walloping the suspect on the head pointy side down?

what do you know ? if this presenter were to wear heels maybe no one would even bother ;)

Were the Chinese Police complaining? Did you ask if it were their(the police Idea or the authorities) sweetheart you were passing judgement.

I MUST SUBSCRIBE!!

So true, so true.

Heels are, as Rena mentions, impractical. They're hard on the feet and bad for posture. In addition, an officer will be unable to chase a suspect in heels. They are for "show" only and serve no other function (unless of course, you count stomping the toes of an attacker). It is counter-intuitive. Rollerblades offer mobility, but heels take it away. How about, add rollerblades, and also good boots/shoes, and teach everyone parkour. THEN you'd have a policing force to reckon with!

I've been to Chengdu, and the police are looked up on as people who help the population, not as folks that bust criminals and do sober faced observation of the public. I can see why Americans would find this all amusing (roller blades) but it seems to me that the police in Chengdu are trying innovative ways to deliver services to the public. The high heels are a bit much, though....

I'm curious why do even care what a woman that doesn't even where her own hair thinks?

This hostess has total class.

She asks a question, then answers it. Speak for yourself. No wonder you guys have 2,000 subs.

Honey, those shoes are so "nice" that even Walmart wouldn't sell them.

What's the big deal? I got pulled over today by a female cop on blades, and I was going 60 in a 30 zone...hehehehehehe She was nice and just told me to slow down, no ticket or anything! More female cops world wide...That's the solution...:-)) REV 17

What a dummy! Hot Chinese cops in high heels is AWESOME!!!!!

Those are not Chinese male police officers, they are MP, army police man, they usually don't interfere local security issues.

What's wrong with women in heels and skirts? (As long as it's decent and classy)

@klausbmj, agreed. Nothing wrong with a little "eloquent authority?" I guess if you dig a little deeper in their equipment bags, you'll find a pair of Nike running sneakers, but they're for running -- not styling.

they do look elegant but it's harder for them to run in heels and after a day standing on them their feet would hurt :/

I agree with you it is highly impractical for women in high heels to try and chase down criminals. The rollerblades thats a little more practical because its almost as good as running but what are they supposed to do if they have to jump? but either way i agree with you

Netherlands here, female police with (low) heels. Although not for special services teams, combat outfit for marechaussee(dress uniform has heels), road police.

Disgusting or delicious.... Disgusting! Yep, fits you perfectly.

Delicious...I'm loving it....

Woman...what is your problem? -.-

taking a sharpened heel in the balls will subdue even the most determined criminal....

I live in nyc....i think the record for shooting for 2013 summer is 15 one weekend.....chicage...i believe the record for 2013 summer is 30 shootings....and of course I never seen people handing out fliers in nyc....or bad air quality...nope thats just china..US cities don't have smog alerts to warn people.....where do you live? one of those square states that people just fly over? Try to look up crime stats...and compare...its all on the internet...not that hard....

delicious! 

0:26 What you came for.

thank you.

Thank God for John Paul II and Ronald Reagan!

I feel like this report could have been given much more tastefully.

She made valid points. Imagine a police officer trying to chase down a criminal wearing those. Completely impractical. It turns every female officer into a symbolic gesture rather than an actual useful tool to help society. "Disgusting" is a strong word, but this woman's point is no less valid after all of the knee-jerk comments on here. People need to think before they start crying foul.

How can you chase criminals in high heels. Seriously.

LOL..yep this is the ultimate form of entertainment

i cant agree more

@goscott4 Where do you live that there are rollerblading cops?
