I think it might be a kookaburra from Australia that one.. but i could be wrong! By the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might interest some people!
What an awesome little video. From her spotting the fish so far away, to cleaning her beak and staring down the camera, and all the violence in between. 10/10

01:57 The bird is like " If you like what you saw , then Like and subscribe !" , I love the way it looked at the camera heheheh =) Great catch of a fish and a great catch of a footage !
i have one of these beauties in a cat carrier right now. She knocked herself concussed on a plexi partition down at the harbour. i tried to shoo her into the bushes and she came straight to me. hopefully this morning she will be able to fly away. i put my hand into the carrier this morning to change the water and she hopped right on, was expecting a brutal peck, instead, a very gentle grip and her head cocked looking at me. What an honour! i hope she flies true this morning🤞🤞🤞🤞🙏💚.
@@kentuckywolf1239 aww, i took her to the wildlife recovery centre after two days because i couldnt get her to eat and she wasnt flying. she was very pert and alert though. i never followed up as i moved away shortly after.
@@annmorgana2848 I hate you had to take her in on such short notice but at least she was bright eyed and bushy tailed goin in, she should have a good shot at makin it thanks to you.
AMAZING! This takes “Beating your Meat” to a whole new dimension! What a great video! I love these birds but never realized he beat his sardine like that! Bravo my fine feathered friend, bravo!
I loved it when I first saw this beautiful bird pershed on a tree branch in my background, (above the trout ponds) used to get some pics of it, then I realized this was a belted king fisher...when through at least 50 trouts!!!!
I'd imagine it's more likely instinctual muscle memory. Feral kittens have a tendency to bite their food and then shake their heads quickly back and forth as if to snap the neck of a small animal, even if never trained to do so. It's likely that some kingfishers started doing this and it ended up helping them not choke or cause damage from a conscious fish inside them, and so they lasted more often than others.
Amazing that they make sure the fish is dead before swallowing...due to size it probably would not be fun if that fish were squirming around in the digestive tract....it is
Wow that is amazing.. How it catch, smack, and eat that fish..didn't know it smack the fish before eat..and it did it hard! The fish must be : "O God.. O God.. Urgh.. Urgh.." 😂 😅..,, its wild! Really some great footage to see.. thanks for sharing! 👍
For those wondering why the kingfisher is beating the fish, it to render it unconscious so when the kingfisher swallows, it'll have no issues with the fish not wiggling it way down to the stomach.
Where was this taken? I recognize those as being the Pacific Northwest, but can't place the islands in the background. Great video, I love watching these birds and especially this girl right here!
Ok, Kingfisher's now have an italian mobster personality and voice in my headcanon... Thanks for that. Cousin Vinnie over here enjoying some fresh pesce di Lago. Defiantly staring into the dock's 'security' camera after a succesfull and literal whacking.

He's trying to break bones and tear flesh to aid in digestion.
Absolutely
Good
This isn't about hunger. This is about sending a message.
Hahahaaa
Underrated
LMAO!
Lol
😁
Man this is absolutely wild! I did not realize they slammed the fish that hard.
I had the same thought; I saw another video and it hit about three times, guess this wanted his good and dead.
I bet they break every single bone in it before swallowing
It's to make the meat tender... One day they will replace Chefs across the Globe...
You should see them catch a crayfish , first slam both pinchers go flying.....
r/natureisbrutal
insane how it can see a fish underwater from so far away. great hunter
That camera has a wide-angle lens, so to capture a large portion of the environment, thus everything appears farthest, but in reality, it's not.
@@montech5647 ñ
That's why he is named King 👑 Fisher
@@montech5647 How far was the fish from it?
@@ivanboskovic1260 about 6 to 8 meters... Not more than this.
He looks at the camera at end and is like: “did you get all that?!”
Or... Like "you are next"

LOL!!
I didn’t realize that kingfisher’s tenderize their fish. 😂
Thats exactly what he did 😆😆
well would you like a live fish to go down the gullet, or a dead one, I think my answer would be clear, smack the little SOB...
Gotta make em fish tendies, my dudes
It's to knock them out so that they don't flail.

Humans: We must not make our food suffer too much. It's the least we can do for their sacrifice.
Animals in the wild:
"Mans gotta eat"- randy bo bandy
That fish was dead within the first few blows. The rest was to tender it so it won’t get stuck in its throat.
@@aidingolrokh9102 i see, i thought it just wanted to brutally murder that fish before eating it lol
@@aidingolrokh9102 only if the bird managed to hit the head square and hard enough
@@raidenfrizz the pain is like salting the meat
What an awesome little video. From her spotting the fish so far away, to cleaning her beak and staring down the camera, and all the violence in between. 10/10
Also that it knew to tenderise it's meal
how do u know it’s a her?

I almost shit myself laughing at this. Poor fish is like “just eat me already!”
*smack* alright timmy! stop showin..*smack* alright tim..*smack* alr..*smack* hey!
Glad I'm not the only one.
amazing how much force that little bird can generate
01:57 The bird is like " If you like what you saw , then Like and subscribe !" , I love the way it looked at the camera heheheh =)
Great catch of a fish and a great catch of a footage !
I knew he was a paid actor the fish did his part very well too
Hehe boi 😅
You are next.
Hehe... I thought exactly the same!
More like..."You didn't see Anything!"
I don't think people would react well if I started treating my catches this way 😂
Its the most natural way. Do what you must do. One hard hit. Dont abuse
You catching a big one, standing on the docks, hammering it against the boards, yea, I think that would be a spectacle.
Yup...the irony of the hardcore environmentalists
@@danraul9759 what irony exactly?
I used to slam mackerel on the ground to instakill them on the pier because i got tired of the cuts from the fins. the looks i got were hilarious lol

This has to be the coolest footage of a king fisher.
The king fisher will often hover like a helicopter or hummingbird above the fish before diving down.
The king fisher is a cool bird to watch.
The precision of spotting a fish from that far and getting it in one try
His autofocus is Godly, just randomly turned and locked the target
And that my friend, is why Alien UFO's are always crashing.
At the end the bird looks at the camera like, "THAT'S how you do it."
That look at the camera at the end... "and that's how it's done, folks."
That fish had no chance. He dove like a heat seeking missile.
that fish must have been talking smack the way the bird wacked it on the branch 🤣😭
The fish was saying: "You're gonna drop me before you can swallow me."
Wooden plank 😂😂😂😂 not branch u 😂😂
Looks at camera after savage beatdown........ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, dat look.
when you're slammed till you're fit to be eaten.
after 5 minutes of beating it like it owed him money...mmmm, tender!
2:07 long video.
The bird eats just like my wife washing dishes when she got angry.
At least, you have a wife(:
After watching that beating, all the other fish have now left the lake!
Classic kingfisher behavior: tenderize before eating 😊
After eating: "What's that thing looking at me?"
AMAZING! This takes “Beating your Meat” to a whole new dimension! What a great video! I love these birds but never realized he beat his sardine like that! Bravo my fine feathered friend, bravo!
"let me just flip yer lil head around... Line her up real quick aaaannnnddd" WHACK
XDDDDD
Incredible footage, amazing Bird could watch this 1000 times and never get bored.

Great video Tommie thanks for sharing! Love how you've anticipated setting the camera up on this perching spot
Kingfisher : mummy, mai bazaar se machchi lane jaa raha hu
A FEW SECONDS LATER
Kingfisher : mummy, mai aa gaya!
So he had battered fish, yet all natural.
I was saying “RKO OUTTA NOWHERE!!” In my head every time he slammed the fish lmao
Very wild. Amazed he had such a grip on the fish.
“STOP IT STOP TOUCHING ME THERE!! STOP STOP STOP!!”
*PUFFS UP*
“WHY ARE YOU ALL LAUGHING!?!MONSTERS”
This is Animal Planet’s version of the Oscars
Wild creatures always amaze me!

This is unironically one of the funniest videos I've seen all week
the fish: "bro wtf"
Cool footage of this kingfisher fishing! Great how it's thrashing this fish around! Thanks for sharing! Like 👍
It even cleans its bill once done! Wood is a great napkin!
Wow! Well done Kingfisher and cameraman
So much intelligence in the little guy.
"...we can do this the easy way or the hard way." - Fleece Johnson
What a beautiful nature
I like how he sharpens his beak in the end. He stabs his pray, whacks it dead and devours it. Cute little monster
I love how it looked at the camera at the end. Like if it was thinking "What're you lookin' at, huh? You're next!"
I can't be the only one laughing their ass off as he just starts beating the fish.
We found the psychopath
You're not.
Crazy that bird knows too knock the fish out before swallowing it, its literally knocking it out. Thing is super adapted to its enviornment.
Me: "I think he's dead"
Bird: "nah FEW MORE WACKS"
“Stop it, he’s already dead!!” - Simpsons
The fact that it knows to smack the fish against the wood shows that it understands mortality or even the existence of a brain in animals
A lot of animals know about the brain, its what Bears go for first in salmon

@@_jeck_ great comment, thank you
It's to knock the fish out so that they don't flail and fall out of their beaks as they swallow it head first.
@@_jeck_ exactly this
Always, I mean ALWAYS tenderize the fish before eating! 😂
The way it stared the camera saying “it’s you next buddy” lmao
the eye contact at the end. i was freezing for like a second!
Amazing that they make sure the fish is dead before swallowing...due to size it probably would not be fun if that fish were squirming around in the digestive tract....it is
The Bird smash it 22 times
Got to knock it out somehow
Hey fish, move! Come on, move! Oh you still moving? Well, we need to fix that...
1:01- kingfisher: What'd you say?
Fish: Let me go, u sucker!
kingfisher: POW! who u calling sucker?! Hahaha
I after doing this to a trout on a FISHING pier, some Karen lost her mind and started yelling.
That bird just beat the shit out that fish 😂😂
this is incredible footage
Bird's throwing it down like it's a WWE match lmaoo
Brutal killing 🥵
He beats his meats before he eats
1:55...he looks over at the camera and says,"you're next!"
He is a determined little guy..
King for a reason
This has to be worthy of some kind of Academy Award!
"Wanna see me catch that fish?"
"Wanna see me do it again?"
crazy how the first few slams were gentle because he didn't have a good grip. Once he settled the fish in his beak it was over.
That fish is like "C'mon dude I'm already dead"
1:55 the bird looking at the camera "well is this what you wanted to see? well is it? you freak!"
The fishes' spirit flying away: alright, alright, man, I'm dead! Can't I die in peace?
The king fisher: 'I don't see dead fish.'
The way he looks in the end...
-i'm coming for you
Wow that is amazing.. How it catch, smack, and eat that fish..didn't know it smack the fish before eat..and it did it hard! The fish must be : "O God.. O God.. Urgh.. Urgh.." 😂 😅..,, its wild! Really some great footage to see.. thanks for sharing! 👍
I'd have never believed this beautiful bird was a psychopathic killer.
“ stop it he’s already dead! “ that’s all I can think about as I watch this
best capture of a Kingfisher! the right choice for your wildcam...
"Stop STOP! He's already dead!"
Very impressive, totally amazing video.thanks man.
Amazing footage.👍👍
the most intense 2 minutes i've ever seen.
1:53 sharpens its beak, then looks directly into the camera - "you're next, m'fer!!!"
Humans: Chewing 32 times
Kingfisher: Hitting 32 times.
For those wondering why the kingfisher is beating the fish, it to render it unconscious so when the kingfisher swallows, it'll have no issues with the fish not wiggling it way down to the stomach.
you seem smart-

Great video, I love watching these birds and especially this girl right here!
He's like "I ain't no state dependant, I'm a real O.G...."
Great footage
Ok, Maybe birds are descendants of dinosaurs.
That was flipping awesome
That slam game is wicked
The fish be like "When will this suffering end, just gouge my brains out with your beak goddamnit!"
What a hunter. Kingfisher is amazing hunt.
Awesome footage!
Great video
*At the end, he looks like, so what? What are you gonna do?*😂
Amazing such an eye opening video
Ok, Kingfisher's now have an italian mobster personality and voice in my headcanon... Thanks for that.
