Filmed on a camera phone in the Caucausus region of southern Russia, the video sees a flock of sheep forming a frenzied, cyclonic circle around a car, much to the amusement of onlookers.

No amount of beeping or edging forward on the car's behalf moves them, and the sheep stick fast.

The clip clocked up over 300, 000 hits in under the time it would take for your gran to knit you a winter woolly, and sparked flocks of video responses.

And despite all our best attempts at witty puns, it was a YouTube user who summed it up better than we ever could: "Ewe shall not baaaaass!"
