Hey, locals only!
An adventurous penguin showed who was the Big Kahuna in South Africa — as it hopped on top of a surfer’s bodyboard and took it for a ride.
Aden Kleve was teaching bodyboarding lessons at Witsand Beach in Cape Town in May when the bird fearlessly climbed on and started hanging six.
“I experienced a truly unforgettable moment when an African penguin decided to join me during a bodyboarding lesson,” Kleve told Storyful.
“He was so friendly, curious, and simply wanted to play on my bodyboard. I’ll never forget this.”
Video shows the tiny animal balancing on the blue board as Kleve, trying not to scare the penguin with his excitement, holds the board steady.
The penguin proved to be a quick learner and rode a large wave with ease — as the man filming the video shouted in disbelief.
“Yo, surf’s up, bruh!” the man can be heard saying.
