It was a close call of the furriest kind.

Dash cam footage recorded in Massachusetts captured the jaw-dropping moment a squirrel plummeted from above, crashing onto the windshield of a moving car before scampering away without injury.

The incident, originally filmed in October 2020, resurfaced recently when the driver reposted the video on TikTok with the witty caption: “When life throws you curveballs … or flying squirrels.”

The clip quickly gained traction online, with viewers stunned at both the squirrel’s resilience and its seemingly miraculous escape.
