The BBC fixes tiny video cameras to raptors with impressive results. See a peregrine falcon perform 150mph dives, and 10g turns off a cliff; and extraordinary scenes as a goshawk flies at ground level through dense woodland.
Awesome footage. Really annoying editing.
Peregrine falcons are one of nature’s most interesting creatures. What speed and power. Can you imagine 10 G’s of force? I tried that once. That’s why I look this way!
