@jmax @Natasha_Jay I was guessing he's using it to correct his roll. Not to overlook that the jump itself is astonishing. Quite awesome.
@obot50549535 @jmax @Natasha_Jay Exactly right. They (and many cats) also use their tails to maintain stability when turning aggressively. It’s particularly visible in videos of cheetahs chasing prey.

I just watched this video about propeller-like body-part physics, and I suspect it is the same thing going on here. Wild.

@Natasha_Jay lots of helicopter puns in this thread. love them all, mistakenly though one of them was a serious question
Anyway, lurcher?
My lurcher also has a propeller tail, though he uses it to slow down, not to gain flight. -

My sister lived next door to a dog who could jump fences like that. The owner claimed that the dog learned from their cat.

It keeps popping up when I dip in today and it’s still tickles me to death even after the ninth or 10th time
