While you might not be familier with “Twiggy,” this waterskiing squirrel has been around for more than 30 years, even being called “world famous.” Of course, squirrels don’t live for decades, but according to a report by the Asbury Park Press, eight different squirrels have posed as Twiggy since the first was trained to ski by a roller rink owner from Deltona, Florida.

The current Twiggy is appearing the Indianapolis Boat, Sport and Travel Show, on now. To see this furry critter ski across the water for yourself, watch the video below.
