A terrified possum was ruthlessly beaten to death with folded metal chairs in a horrifying video allegedly taken by two teens for social media.

The video appears to show a defenseless possum repeatedly struck with chairs which were swung overhead like axes and then brought down upon the helpless animal.

Possums are gentle, shy creatures who involuntarily "play dead" when threatened by predators, leaving them unable to run away.

In this horrifying situation, the scared, vulnerable animal lay still-- occasionally twitching -- as the beating went on.
