When A Cheetah Decides It Wants To Take Over Your Safari Vehicle

Tourists at Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya got a little more than they bargained for when a cheetah jumped up onto their safari vehicle and practically commandeered it. 

One moment, you're watching the cheetah... the next moment, the cheetah's watching you: 

The cheetah quickly got comfortable and even posed for some memorable photos: 

The cheetah hung around for about 45 minutes before hopping off without incident. 

The footage was initially posted on YouTube in 2012 by Don Girskis, but has been going viral all over again and this week was featured on Facebook by Daily Picks and Flicks.
