Watch: Zola the gorilla dancing like a ‘Maniac’

Zola the gorilla is at it again. And he’s dancing like he’s never danced before.

The gorilla was caught on video dancing, spinning and splashing in a tub at the Dallas Zoo, and one viewer decided to overlay the song "Maniac" from the movie "Flashdance," over the clip, Mashable reported.

Zola has attracted attention before, as a video of him splashing his feet in a puddle at the Calgary Zoo went viral.

Officials at the Dallas Zoo said water time stimulates his natural instincts, Mashable reported.

Predictably, one could argue that his moves have social media going ape.
