Aww, now doesn't that just melt your heart. This isn't a new video, it was posted to YouTube over a year ago and has more than 200,000 views, but it was new to me.) And you know I can't resists a 'NeverEnding Story' tie in!)

Now, if you have no idea who 'Falkor' is, you need to go find a copy of the 'NeverEnding Story' movie and watch it right now.

Falkor is a Luckdragon and played a prominent role in the 'NeverEnding Story' and was probably the pet I wanted most as a child. (That or a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle)

Falkor is a luck dragon, a marvelous, feather/fur creature that saves Atreyu in the Fantasia land known as The Swamps of Sadness. Best known for his positive outlook, Falkor helps Atreyu with not only extra-fast flight, but with encouragement and hope. Falkor was one of the few survivors of The Nothing that almost consumed Fantasia, and was the subject of Bastian's very first wish to bring Fantasia back.-IMDB

Now get this...did you know that Bavaria Film Studios in Munich actually has has a life-size reproduction of Falkor which tourists can climb on and ride. (It even has a green-screen like thing that lets you create your own magical ride, check it out below) I think Germany just moved up about ten spots in my "places I need to go" list.
