This is the adorable moment a bear 'back flops' into a pool of water to cool off on a hot day. <br /><br />The Asian black bear named James was seen sitting on the edge of the concrete pool inside a conservation centre as temperatures reached 38C.<br /><br />Footage filmed on July 21 shows the twelve-year-old bear standing on his hind legs looking curiously up to the sky. He then slowly falls back into the water with a splash.<br /><br />The adorable way of cooling off was captured at the Phu Khiao Wildlife breeding centre in Chaiyaphum, northeastern Thailand.<br /><br />Sompong Boonsanong, head of the breeding centre, said that James had brought joy and laughter to everybody since he was a baby. <br /><br />He said: ''James was an orphan when he was rescued. He had lost his mother in a hunt many years ago and we decided to take care of him since.<br /><br />''Everybody likes to watch him fooling around and playing in the water.<br /><br />''James has always been a funny boy and I don't think he even realises it. Everything he does is always cute and hilarious. We're just lucky to have him.''
