Montreal's notorious daredevil Yaya, aka @parkourporpoise, is up to his old shenanigans and we couldn't be more excited to see him back on the streets.

This time, a video shows the hilarious prankster crossing the street near the Bell Centre when he's intercepted by a couch-on-wheels that sweeps him up and carries him down the road alongside minimal traffic. In other words, he's literally couch surfing.

"I had a friend with me and we wheeled the sofa from my place," Yaya told MTL Blog.

"Some passersby were pulling out their phones and taking pictures and videos to send to their friends." 

The video has almost 3,000 "likes" on Instagram.

It's captioned with "When your friends try to get you to come out, but your couch is too comfortable."

How relatable is that?
