'Cyclone' of sheep surrounding driver becomes YouTube hit

London, Feb 2 (ANI): A short video, which shows a herd of sheep running rings around a car in Russia has gone viral on the internet.

The 22-second clip, which was reportedly shot on a camera phone, features a driver being surrounded by an unrelenting torrent of sheep.

In the clip, a saloon car crawls forward beeping its horn as the person behind the wheel attempts to negotiate a small dirt road next to a stone cottage, which looks like a property in the Caucausus region of southern Russia.

Despite the revving of the engine the persistent sheep continue their frenzied loop around the vehicle, much to the amusement of the person behind the lens, until the footage suddenly ends.

Since being posted on YouTube, the humourous clip has been watched nearly 140,000 times, the Telegraph reported.

One viewer on the video sharing website struck the right note when they left the remark, "You shall? not baaaaaass," which swiftly became the most liked comment on the clip. (ANI)
