Like a real life game of Russian Buckaroo, one Russian police officer was left clinging on for dear life after a donkey he was riding unexpectedly ran off.

In the hilarious video uploaded by Ruptly on Tuesday, the thickset officer is captured sitting proudly on his trusted stead in the city of Makhachkala in the Republic of Dagestan,

However, the donkey doesn’t prove as trusted as first thought, when, without any warning, the animal decides to turn around and sprint off.

The officer’s ordeal is found amusing by his colleagues who can be heard laughing at their friend’s unfortunate donkey ride.
