Default Golden Eagle Attempts to Snatch a Kid
Whoa, he had him several feet off the ground! He was just barely too heavy. What if he actually got it??!?! aCk!

Formerly the notorious nyc!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

Heard reports but never thought I'd see it in a developed country.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

Why would it matter if it was in a developed country? Eagle has to eat. I don't imagine he cares which country he is living in.

Is it fake? Seems some think so. And by some, I mean people on the internet.

Wow! If he's Native American Indian, then that's a pretty powerful totem.

It is Jameson Irish Whiskey. It is not Scotch.

What are the rules, can one shoot a Golden or Bald eagle trying to kill a child?

I would and then rely on the jury.

They steal kid goats all the time, so I don't doubt they could handle the weight and size of a child. I do doubt they would dive into a public park with all the other people around though. Kitty cats and squirrels are too easy to catch and much less risk. I've got a pair of great horned owls that roost in my pecan tree every couple of weeks. They are both monsters and I worry about them getting my cats. You can hear the squirrels losing their minds for blocks around when they're up there.

While "faking things" has become alot easier with tech. I doubt that is fake.


Too many things going on.

1. The shadows (kid and eagle)
2. The person watching eagles soar by and then reacting to the attempted abduction
3. The kid falling to ground

Alot of work involved there. I have done some video work and that would take a lot of time.
