There's a "making of" video. Very interesting http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_377058&feature=iv&src_vid=jTJYc8O1ocM&v=dGcGGkqKJkU Danger Dassie 1
Tumbleweed Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Was rooting for the falcon! Awesome vid! Thanks for sharing!
pezulu Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Very well shot, but when pitched against the Peregrine even an ostrich in flight would have been able to catch him. The speed of a Peregrine in a dive was clocked at 242 mph (390kph) by a British scientist recently. http://scienceblogs....egrine-falcons/ Edited June 6, 2013 by pezulu
Brian Fantana Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) Here is the birdcam version to see how it looked from the bird's perspective. It is amazing how the bird goes up high to evaluate his options and then shoots down to strike. Pure focus: Edited June 6, 2013 by Brian Fantana Danger Dassie 1
Capricorn Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 i wonder if one the world cup riders willl plant a sticker of a falcon on their lids, and point at it when Gee rolls by...

Pieta Stumpy Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Insane! Now imagine this with a cheetah chasing. Will make me shatter any world record
RED1408 Posted June 6, 2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Awesome Video but at 3:20 the hydration back pack was missing then it was back on again in the next shot
