Squirrels are wily little critters, capable of running quickly and climbing adventurously. But did you know they were also budding daredevils?

This video shows a guy filming a squirrel that has clearly become trapped in his apartment. The squirrel is desperately looking for a way out, clambering up and down the walls.

And then he spots the open window, runs as fast as his little legs can carry him, and leaps out. Without a parachute.

You assume it’s going to be curtains for the little fellow, but no, as by the time the guy reaches the window and points his camera down at the ground there he is scampering around as bold as brass.
