Pet mice ride on mouse-sized toy skateboards in a mouse-sized skate park built by Shane Willmott in his backyard
After achieving worldwide fame by teaching his pet mice to surf, Shane Willmott has now trained them to ride skateboards.
These gnarly little dudes ‘drop the vert ramp’ and get airborne on mouse-sized toy skateboards in a mouse-sized skate park built by Mr Willmott in his Gold Coast backyard.
The furry daredevils even fly through a ring of fire.
Mr Willmott, who has been training mice to surf for about 10 years, said he decided to teach them to skate because it was too cold in winter to take them to the beach.
« They love it, » he said. « Mice are built to surf and skate because their centre of gravity is so low. When they do fall off, they want to get straight back on board. »
