The eagle was fitted with a camera and released from the top of the 2,715 foot Burj Khalifa building in Dubai.
The eagle had no idea where
the tiny speck of land was that his handler was standing on or what it looked like among all of the other islands and buildings and people.
Somewhere along the way, the eagle actually picks out and recognizes his trainer from among all of the other objects, people, etc.
You can see him looking, looking, looking for his trainer, who is invisible to the human eye and the camera, and then once he spots him,
he folds his wings and drops like a bullet straight to his trainer.
What is surprising is not only how efficiently the eagle spots his trainer from that altitude, but how smooth its flight is, with no camera
shake whatsoever, even when it goes into a power dive.
May we all have the eyes of an eagle.

is the video link. Guaranteed enjoyment.

Incredible! Thanks. One question: does anyone know if the eagle sees one scene (a different one) from each eye?
lets talk about dubai,do you know,when the hotels were built,they had NO septic systems,and no way to get rid of the human waste,so they dump the waste into tanker trucks,and send it somewhere ( I dont know where) I saw a video,of these tanker trucks,waiting to unload,I gave up counting these tanker trucks,when the count reached 150,and there were a s**t load of trucks,still in line,some of the trucks waited for over a month,to unload. can you imagine,telling your friends,that you are a s**t hauling,tanker truck driver??? ( this is a TRUE story)
