It's a good thing cats have nine lives.
A glider flight at an aviation school in Kourou, French Guiana took an unexpected mid-air turn when the pilot noticed a cat clinging to one of the wings, 9news reports.
Uploaded Sunday by YouTube user "romain jantot," the video, "Remove cat before flight," has already hit 135,000 views, and people around the world are tuning in to watch the death-defying cat. The video has been featured by several media outlets including Mashable and Uproxx.
"A standard flight until... i still don't know if it got in after the pre flight check or if i missed it," jantot writes in the video's caption, adding that "the cat is doing well, she is still our mascot."
Here's a look at the cat's high-flying adventure.
