Wombat Zoom-nastics

Let’s check in on little Tabmow, the backwards-named wombat who lives at Pumpkins Patch Kangaroo Sanctuary in South Australia. Today Tabmow seems to have caught Olympic fever as he performs an energetic floor routine on the couch, complete with a spin on his back. Maybe he hopes they’ll add breakdancing as an Olympic event.

    Tabmow is too adorable for words!

      I know! Is he just especially cute, even by wombat standards?🥰
      I love the back flips but the head-first in the corner did me in!
      It’s too bad wombats live in such a hot place with bugs and spiders the size of sanitation trucks! Or snakes…sharks…stonefish…cane toads…🤔

    Silly little fella. I see there’s a mattress on the floor, to soften Tabmow’s falls off the couch. Wish I had that burst of energy. From his point of view, on the couch, it looks like he’s bouncing off the walls and trying to get over one.

    Who’s the larger brown-furred animal lounging on the couch toward the end of the clip? Seems not impressed with the antics.

      Probably Rufus the Couch Kangaroo.

    Well now that gymnastics is done I need a new sport to watch. This’ll do.

    Definitely, Tabmow has gold-medal potential. What a fireball!

    Those spins have a degree of difficulty that is simply off the charts! PLUS he sticks the landing every time! I see Simone Biles has a worthy successor.

      How many skills can Tabmow get named after him? Simone has four (two of them on the floor). She might have had a fifth if she had performed that vault everyone was talking about at the Olympics (you have to do it in a major competition to get it named after you).

    Wait a minute! I KNEW I’d seen Tabmow’s signature back spin before! It’s riiiiight here at 1:55-1:59:

      I’m speechless. Your ability to watch this clip of an amazing gymnastic performance with close attention while an astonishingly repulsive sound track plays is heroic.

        Just doing my job, ma’am.

        It’s called a mute button. And I admit I used it the second time I watched.😏

      How come I am not aware of this performer?! What got me was at 1:04. I mean, he bounces his body off the mats!😳 Unreal!
