SHEEP are not exactly born swimmers — but un-baa-lievable Mildred is wowing fans as a talented SURFER.
More than 50,000 web surfers have flocked to get a glimpse of the six-year-old.
In the footage of her unprecedented surf at St. Agnes in Cornwall the anything but sheepish ewe is seen being helped on to her board by three surfers in wetsuits before being towed out to sea.
As the waves carry her back to shore she uses her skill and clever footwork to keep the board steady and straight — before leaping on to the sand.
But for her legions of admirers all is not quite as it seems - the film is actually a computer generated viral designed as a publicity stunt for a British clothing firm.
We knew it was to good to be tr-ewe.
Its fake
I guess this is England, still, it’s a fun video.
Why?
It’s still a fun video.
Can black sheep swim?
Yep. You can tell that only the head is superimposed onto a fake body mounted to a surf board.
The first photo in the Sun’s article is a wee suggestive. But then, it’s from the UK.
