NAW Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Herd about that on the news this morning. Craziness! That kids is lucky. A few more wing flaps before he let go, and that would have been a nasty fall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigugli Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Large raptors will commonly attack much larger meals like young sheep,goats, large dogs, etc.. The small child was just easy prey. It may sound horrible, but nature does what it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 Fake... Just ran it through some video.. and the shadow appears partway through the flight... I'll upload in a bit and post a link.I have done a fair bit of bird watching and you can see shadows of birds hundreds of feet above the ground so 20 feet should be plainly visible.

woodenboater Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 I dunno, the framing was off so the shadow coulda been just off the bottom ( you can see the relative location in the frame where you can see it) and out of the frame. Snopes didn't have anything on this yet so am giving the benefit of the doubt to the uploader. for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 look where the shadow first appears and go back it had about 200 yards to appear before the tree shadow. It would have been somewhere. PLus not a single other person in the video even acknowledges a bird circling so low to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
