Trapped squirrel turns Superman to escape
In what is probably the best ever example of the 'Fight or Flight' rule, a German squirrel has gone viral on social media after taking a leap of faith.
The Youtube video, with over 170,000 views as of the 25th September, shows a cutesy little squirrel running rampant in a chap's kitchen before unexpectedly leaping from a window at least 3 floors up.

so how did it get in there in the first place?
ReplyKnow how it felt!
ReplyI don't think the squirrel would have realized just how high up he was, it was really just a matter of "there's an exit point, good!". I hope he survived.
ReplySome Squirrels can glide Was this a Glider?
ReplyThe window was left open on purpose so as to forced the squirrel to jump out for video. I think it's sick but pleasantly glad to know they can survive a fall/jump at such height.
