Social media users have been stunned by this incredible footage of a deer jumping to an insane height in a gravity-defying feat.
A deer put Michael Jordan to shame after it was filmed leaping to an insane height while crossing a road in India.
A jaw-dropping video of the gravity-defying feat boasted close to 100,000 views on Twitter as of Tuesday.
“And the gold medal for long & high jump goes to…..” reads the caption to the high-flying footage, which was shared to the Twitter account of India-based environmental NGO WildLense Eco Foundation.
In the exhilarating slow-motion clip, a spotted deer can be seen emerging from a river and jumping effortlessly across a dirt path.
During the incredible soaring leap, the ungulate glides through the air at approximately the height of a person as if suspended by wires in a Hong Kong kung fu flick.
Although the clip’s poster doesn’t actually disclose what type of deer is featured in the footage, the axis deer — a species native to India — can reportedly leap over fences when threatened, Hunting Heart reported.
Social media wildlife enthusiasts were impressed at the animal’s “Matrix”-evoking jump.
“Wow, never seen such a long jump from anybody but this one is literally flying,” commented one awe-struck gawker of the acrobatic animal’s awe-inspiring air time.
Another wrote, “Yes the gold medal goes to daring ‘Deer’ what a jump! I can’t believe this.”
One fan compared the scene to something out of an “action movie.”
