Sean Murray proves he may just be the coolest dad in the galaxy with his cutom-made Star Wars Millennium Falcon sled. It's pretty clear that he and his daughter had a fantastic time riding through the snowy plains of what looks to be Hoth -- it could also just be Earth.

The sled contains superb craftsmanship that serves to accurately depict the iconic Star Wars Millennium Falcon -- Chewbacca and Han Solo would certainly be proud. The aerodynamics of this crafty ship may not be the most appropriate means of snow travel, but that's what makes it so lovable.

The only downside of this sled is the fact that it only seems to fit young Jedi apprentices. This is certainly unfitting since several adults would surely want to take a ride in this [Sci-Fi sled](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-wars-x-columbia-collection).
