A video of a mountain goat sprinting across snow-covered mountains is going viral. In the thrilling video, a chamois, a goat-antelope native to European mountains, descends from the top of a mountain and passes through a deep valley within a matter of seconds. The fast pace and impressive balance of the wild animal have netizens in awe.
This video was originally posted online by Perrot Couttet Zian, a snowboarder, on his Instagram account back in March. Soon, his video was circulated across social media platforms.
This is not the first video that has captured a goat and its physics-defying antics. In January this year, a video of a goat climbing a wall almost vertically had gone viral. The undated clip, posted by an Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, showed the goat climbing a wall in just a few vertical jumps.
Another video that showed a herd of goats carefully jumping over concrete blocks as fast water gushes past them also went viral after IPS officer Dipanshu Kabra shared it on Twitter in July.
