Squirrel That Gatecrashed Holiday Snap

Crasher the squirrel hit the headlines after he popped up in a photo taken by Melissa Brandt and her husband in Banff National Park in Canada. Since then he's gone global - with the help of a little photo trickery. Hundreds of people have superimposed the curious interloper onto famous pictures from around the world.


Now, the trickery:
First stop Thailand. Crasher demonstrates he's happy to court the media circus and doesn't think twice about stealing the limelight from a baby elephant trapped in a drainage ditch.
Next, the rodent wide boy cuts his showbiz teeth at sea, posing in the jaws of...well...Jaws.
Not everyone's pleased to see the squirrel. A web surfer superimposes the animal onto Edvard Munch's famous Scream picture.
It's time to revisit an old story with Crasher popping up in a picture of former president Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky
Michael Jackson's song Ben was about his favourite rodent. Here's Crasher paying his respects at the King of Pop's funeral.
Astro-nuts: It's one small step for man, one giant leap for squirrelkind.
Hair today gone tomorrow. Crasher is making the most of his fame while it lasts. Here he joins Phil Spector during his trial for murder.
And to crown it all the crafty squirrel finds his way into a picture with the Queen. Time for him to take a bow...

  1. That little hammer-head is amazing! Gotta love a squirrel that can get a selfie with President Clinton and the Queen Mum.
