Backflipping Hamster Could Take Over the Internet

Anyone who's ever owned a hamster knows the furry critters do much more than run on exercise wheels. As the cute little guy in this video shows, hamsters are also natural acrobats. And this little guy could become the next internet sensation.

This hamster does more than 50 spectacular end-over-end tumbles over the course of a minute. According to the video's description on YouTube, he literally flips whenever music is played.

Although there's no audible music in this clip, this hamster apparently hears something in his head. Maybe it's death metal. After all, we've seen animals freaking out to that caustic music before.

One thing is certain, though. If being a full-time pet doesn't work out for this hamster, he can always pursue a career in the circus.
