This isn't something you see during your everyday commute.

Milly Price snapped a cellphone video of a surprise commuter on the London Underground.

In the video above, a squirrel scampers down the underground train carriage, causing fits of laughter and yelps of mild panic among commuters.

"We heard lots of excitement from the other end of the train and suddenly a squirrel appears and starts doing laps," said Price. "Lots of screams and jumping on seats at first because many thought it was a rat."

Thankfully the scared squirrel hopped off at the next stop. Perhaps he had a very pressing appointment at Notting Hill Gate.
