Hilarious.

 

[Matt Gottshalk]

I feel the pain.








For the camera.

 

[Benni Diez]

that's what you get for not using a RED.

LMAO.

Those claws must really be sunk in deep to cause that look on his face! :emote_22_yikes:

That's when his natural history film making ambitions have faded and he become a very successful sitcom DP. He got twice as much money, no expense for stupid permits and insurance was cheaper. No excessive "wear" on the camera too. LOL :biggrin5:

Wait, why haven't I worked that one out yet?

Simple - because seals haven't learned to fly yet! :lol:

That's one big bird.

Try to mess aroud with one and see what happens. LOL :lol:

It would look great at 120 fps in full 4k, though.

Had it been a RED, he'd probably still be holding onto it! ;-)

 

[Nick Gardner]

It would appear that the guy is holding on to a leather tether, so I would assume it's his bird, and he managed to piss it off some how. Maybe the bird wanted better crafty?

[Michael McLaughlin]

had it been RED, he could of beat the bird with it.





I kid... I kid. : - )

I once saved a Wedge Tail Eagle (5ft wing span) from a tick on its eyelid, had him for 2 months before releasing back into the wild, used to run up and down the beach with him on my arm trying to get some strength back into his wing muscles...friggin painful with his talons wrapped around ya wrist trying to balance, the bloke in these shots must have really pissed that bird off to get attacked.

Edit: the Wedge Tail is the worlds biggest raptor and can take out small Kangaroos

"If he chooses you, he'll attack you..."

 

[Andrew Walker]

Awesome picture. I can't imagine having a bird that big and well armed pissed off at you.

 

[Paolo Tinari]

Amazing.
I wonder if Borat commented this on local news.

 

[Iannis Holwech]

There was a longer text attached to this report when it was first published. It is the cameraman of the local news team that is attacked and he managed to grab the lead string to try to control the eagle. He probably was too close to the hunting field, of what was a eagle hunting competition and the bird got pissed off at him.

And a short video report, without the eagle attacking, naturally :smile5: ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PxzClfYV6WY
