The hilarious photographs were captured by German photographer Julia Christe in a studio in Berlin, after she decided to capture her favourite animal from an unlikely perspective. Dropped from their owners' arms onto a thick mattress, they excitedly fall through the air whilst displaying comical facial expressions.
