For those who feel that the weekend is still decades away and experience a dire need for entertainment, here's a video showing an elk playing on a trampoline.

The video made it online only a couple of days ago, and it has already scored over 200,000 hits. Truth be told, it is quite amusing, so it's no wonder that people seem unable to get enough of it.

The video was shot by a Greg Chase in Evergreen, Colorado, who was merely enjoying his cup of coffee together with his wife when the elk jumped on the trampoline and started bouncing around, just for the fun of it.

“We were just sitting down for our morning coffee when I watched this young elk poking his head into the entrance of the trampoline..when all of a sudden he decides to jump in for some fun!” Greg writes in the video's description on YouTube.

“For any viewers offended by my wife's comment on the notion of shooting it....the only reason my wife suggested doing so was to keep it from suffering if it got too badly hurt due to the hole in the tramp,” he adds.

Judging by how much it seems to have enjoyed the experience, odds are the elk will sooner or later return and give the trampoline another try.
