A video of a gymnast showing off her extreme flexibility by twisting her body into an airline seat is going viral. With her head behind her ankles, she nimbly manages to buckle her seat belt. Watch the Instagram video, posted by @passengershaming, and try not to think if the human body is supposed to bend like that.

The supple gymnast in the video is 26-year-old Austrian-born Stefanie Millinger. It appears she'll have no problem with leg room.

The hilarious and mind-bending video has racked up 267,000-plus views.
