Watch a Wedge-Tailed Eagle, the largest bird of prey in Australia, knock a drone out of the sky, sending it into a tailspin before crashing into the ground. “It survived” said Adam Lancaster about his drone “but I need $100 in parts to get it going again.” The eagle, who was protecting her airspace, also survived the skirmish.
With all the horrible things happening in the world today, it's easy to have a negative outlook on where we are and where we're going as humans. But these morning commuters from the land down under have restored my faith in humanity!
You may remember the Australians who take a sport and find a way to super-size it. In one video, a guy throws a Frisbee off a bridge, and another guy catches it... after jumping off a speed boat. There's another where they set a Guinness World Record for a basketball shot from 45 stories. Now they've taken basketball to even more of an extreme.
