If you’ve seen 13 Going On 30, you’ll know that cranking out the moves to Michael Jackson’s Thriller is a surefire way of getting the party going.

Obviously, this Alaskan bear got the memo because when he spotted a wildlife photographer, he decided to show off his skills.

These brilliant sequence of photographs were captured by Russian photographer Alexey Tishchenko when the brown bear was drying himself off after a swim.

“I had been watching the bears fish for quite a while before this one decided to stand up and make it’s way across the shoreline,” he explained.

“I managed to get some shots of it drying itself off but I had no idea how funny they were until I checked my camera. I was with my daughter at the time and were both laughing about how it looked like Michael Jackson in the Thriller video.”
