Eagle launches from nest to take down drone — VIDEO
August 13, 2015 - 9:31 pm
Eagles are vicious animals, and now there's a point-of-view video to prove it.
Uploaded by Melbourne Aerial Video, the video features footage from a drone flying above a wooded area.
Suddenly, an eagle flies up to the drone and uses a talon to "punch" the drone out of the sky.
The drone crash lands and waits helplessly on the ground for its owner.
Taking a closer look at the start of the video, the eagle can be seen in the distance, perched on a branch, right before it takes off at alarming speed.
A new rule for drone pilots: If you see a eagle in the sky, LAND.
Oh, and don't worry, the eagle is fine.
