A Bulgarian mountain resort closed its pool for the winter, but the staff began to notice that someone was sneaking into the pool late at night to go for a dip.
Checking their security footage, they were surprised to see that their mystery visitor was a bear. This furry giant returned night after night for his after-dark swim.
The staff watched in amusement as the curious bear wandered the property until he stealthily snuck under the chained “Closed” sign in front of the pool to take a dip.
Instead of attempting to shoo him away, the mountain resort staff nicknamed him Swimmy and allowed him to continue his midnight forays since no one was using the pool anyway.
Each night, Swimmy can be observed paddling his way around the pool, looking like a giant teddy bear in his own personal aquatic heaven.
During his nocturnal visits to the pool, his delightful antics provide a constant source of amusement that the mountain resort staff looks forward to each night.
The resort’s pool will be officially closed once Swimmy goes into hibernation once the winter cold truly sets in, but for now, the public facility will remain open to one very furry swimmer.
