That pigeon flying with a GoPro is insane.
that is no way a GoPro on that pigeon lol
It's a tic-tok influencer
Hhhhhha
The pigeon would be a lot faster if he wasn't carrying three cameras.
That was pretty mean
@@nisse18 how was it mean
rofl!
@@cecegiles4583 because it could've killed the pigeon?

Oh no! everyone casting spell on you.
Hahahahhaahahahahaha good dude.
"it must raise its game" ....that was my lesson for today.
Pigeons have higher wing loading than peregrines (less mass per wing surface) and are able to turn sharper. If both birds start from rest, the pigeon will be able to out fly the peregrine with higher acceleration and sharper turning radius.
Great and informative reply....a rare thing on TH-cam. When the Peregrine is able to garner speed from its stoop the pigeon stands a far greater chance of being taken. Around 90% of pursuits end badly for them. I've seen this bird descend at around 200mph and it is a sensational sight
Hi
but the pigeon is fwd and the falcon is rwd, so the falcon doesnt understeer as much when cornering
Yeah, they are much smaller
@@che3601 lol I know
Mad props to the cameraman..err I mean camerabird!
That Video is made in 2011

Evolve is a lie. Creation is true.
@@kanyenorth5711 No not my opinion. Creation is of GOD. And that opinion is the most important opinion. Truth is a hard trait to follow. Wide and broad is the way, and many will follow it. But narrow and straight is the way of salvation, and few follow it. Opinions are free, use your opinion as you see fit, and I shall do the same with my opinion.

I used to raise racing pigeons in Arizona and once watched a full on dual between one peregrine falcon and about 12 of my pigeons. I assumed I would lose at least one pigeon but I didn't. If you ever get a chance to see that you will have new respect for pigeons because as shown in the video they are absolutely superb flyers and they instinctively group up and are very maneuvering, especially racing pigeons. I think the only way a peregrine falcon can really get a pigeons is through stealth, once the pigeons are aware they can definitely out maneuver a falcon in the sky once the element of surprise has been used.
Pigeon, duel and manoeuvrable
The key I think is height. If the pigeons are at height they are vulnerable as the peregrine falcon can dive reaching speeds up to 390km/hour and launch an attack. At lower heights like this video, perhaps the pigeons are more likely to escape being attacked.
I saw one of these birds yesterday in the sky! It was amazing I'm a birder photographer and it was so incredible to see one!
peregrine falcons are our yousual bird of pray over in welwick
Oogh ..

The music beautifully enriches the video -- bravo BBC!
Do you know the name of it?

As I can testify.
Pigeon Cam is so awesome!
Magnificent cinematography to capture this. Fantastic.
That pigeon was dippin 😂
Excellent video. How a pigeon sees and a falcon learns :)
amazing camera work ...looks so cool .
What do we say to the God of Death?
Pigeon: Not Today
Amazing...Thank you.

Thank you everyone for answering my question.
Peregrines are highly adapted for their preferred high-speed vertical attack, to the extent that they've traded in some of their horizontal speed for the ability to make even faster diving attacks. Gyrfalcons and other hierofalcons are actually very well adapted to the sort of horizontal pursuit the peregrine in this clip attempted. Would be interesting to see how that would go.
i think gry is faster in forward flight
There is no such thing as adaptation. The notions of evolution, adaptation, and natural selection have as much basis in reality as the story of creation in the Bible. Think about, we have species living within the same environment, and they are all different. If there was adaptation, why only the peregrines would fly so fast. Species have appeared from day one already adapted. An 18-19th century naturalist by the name of George Cuvier has proposed the more rational theory of fixity of the species. Darwinian evolution makes absolutely no sense, more so in the light of what we know today through genetics about the DNA.
There it is!!! ADAPTED! None of these animals "evolved" only people against creative design push those narritives.

Cameraman never dies.
THATS AMAZING
poor pigeon had to fly with the camera on its back, im sure it slowed it down.
I'm 99% sure the camera pigeon was a different bird than the one hunted by the falcon, though. The camera-carrying birds in documentaries are usually tame and taught to fly on command.

Hermit4321 I'm sure it slowed him down
ElayasKun Yep...likely a homer that is better fed, better housed, better cared for than a field pigeon Without that camera, that particular falcoln wouldn't have been close.
Thanks heaps for sharing. :D
All through the nature programs it fascinating to me how the predator and prey both evolved to have equal chance of success.
Raise your game, son!
Peregrine Falcon: I'm Speed
Cameraman: are u sure about that?

What fantastic camera work !
It's amazing how they trained the other falcons and pigeons to fly parallel to the action and film it with such steadiness and precision.

Pidgeon is fighting for its life? Well so is the falcon.
Hansen Peter - No, it is fighting for its lunch. One missed lunch won’t kill it.
@@GH-oi2jf falcons can get hurt by pigeons but its rare
No mate, ithe falcon is looking for a meal.
It kills a few every day. Sometimes as much as 4 (in nesting season). But usually one pigeon is sufficient for the day.
There are peregrines nesting near our place in Wales, and I've seen the snatching g blackbirds, songthrush, from a building. If the bird is unaware there's falcons in the area, it's curtains for him.
Fantastic seeing them dive.
Like a missile, literally . You can't keep your eyes in it, it's that fast.

nah, the falcon community does not like this. it makes them look bad.
the pigeon is all like get away from me.
how did they put a camera on pigeon's back ? or its CG ? looked pretty cool.
Opened the door to go outside one day.
_WABOOSH!!_
An explosion of feathers envelopes me, like a bird just blew up in my face. A little commotion on the ground a few feet away draws my attention. A peregrine falcon is sitting on top on a very dead pigeon.
It must have slammed into the bird at full speed right in front of the door. Damn lucky it didn’t fly into the side of my head lol.
it's like watching an war plane dog fight
Nadeem
Falcon "why are you flying away from me? I just want to get that camera off your back!
how'd they mount a camera on the pigeon
I really wanna know what music this is because my god this is amazing.
There's a family of these living around my neighbourhood. They occasionally perch on top of my window sill (I'm on the 20th floor) to call out or hunt pigeons. They're amazing birds. I think they're the reason my area has no crows.
Crows sometimes gang up on birds of pray in the sky, I saw it once, looked crazy.
😅 crows don't give a crap on them,they probably don't want to have the place for themselves. Crows vs falcons/eagles and such, crows win always 🤷😅
outstanding camera footage
how'd you film them so close?
Healthy Pigeon will outfly falcon most of the time . You can see the stress level ease up on the flying pigeon after a couple minutes.
Pigeons have stiffer feathers which act like top gears on a bike .
Falcon catches old and weak and keeps disease down in the pigeon population.
Both , wonderful
And racing pigeons have a lot of endurance and an amazing cardio for their size.
Can you please do a video on the difference between the hawks, kites, eagles and falcons?
Pleeeeease..............
Hawks have short broad wings and fan shaped tail. Eagles are similar, only way bigger. Kites have a large v shaped tqpail. And falcons have big, boomerang shaped wings, black lines under their eyes, and thinner tails while soaring
Thank you BBC !
YOU PIGEON!!!!!! PERIGRINE DO BETTER NEXT TIME!
Plot twist: Falcon "I don't care about you, Gimme that GoPro!!"😀
Pigeons are very intelligent. I feed them every day in my backyard, even I am in my kitchen just thinking to go outside and feed them somehow around 100 pigeons fly over my roof before I go outside in my backyard
Bless you 🙏
That was one lucky pigeon!
MaxAnimal
Truly amazing camera
This would be so much better with the Top Gun theme tune in the background.
I actually thought racing pigeons have been documented to fly faster than flacons in flight. I think some of them based upon completion times were calculated close to 100mph
In level flight, I think they are roughly equal. The peregrine scores by walloping prey at very high speed, from above.
How beatiful they are! Watch the Nature close to You amd enjoy!
The falcon became the pigeon with a sharp left wing
That pigeon who did the camera work, actually makes full length movies.

You have to have a wall in front of your QB to fly,
It helps if the opponent cannot read your eyes because matt Ryan has adjusted to wearing an variable light visor.
Unbelievable camera work ! Wow
I wonder how they captured the video
Listen we all now pigeons are getting their asses whooped from the title alone, the real question is just how badly
Have you watched it?
The peregrine never seems that fast in these damn vids
In flight racing pigeons are faster. Its only dive speeds that the peregrine is the fastest. Free tailed bats are the fastest in flight
I have no words for what I just saw.
The pigeon listend to dutch and had FAITH
Good job retrieving the GoPro.
lostn65
what a relief, no animals were harmed during the making of this film
Why only 360p?
Looks like two fighter jets in a dog fight
They along with there smaller cousins Doves have a remarkable get away strategy if indeed they are captured. And that is to release as many feathers as they possibly can fooling the predator into thinking it has ceased it's victim. When in reality it's only left with a bunch of feathers this "loose down" if you will that these birds produce upon being seized is a remarkable method for evading predation. And i've witnessed it many, many, times in the field.
Sorry but this you saying it's completlly wrong
Pigeons are my favorite bird. Everybody thinks that they have no power but they do. You see, every creature has a power. They're the only birds that feed their young milk, they have powerful chest muscles up in their wings which gives them the speed of 40 miles per hour which makes them fly faster than a Peregrine Falcon, and they have the ability to find their way home by looking at the sun and stars, feeling the earth, and by smelling. They can eat human food like cookies and french fries. They can be kinda funny, but you might as well give them a chance. I want to warn you that pigeons poop when they get scared so it makes them feel lighter when flying away from a Peregrine Falcon, so if you scare them well.
Falcons are faster tho.
No they literally have no defensive options except running
Man it really is your favourite animal you know a ton about them! I respect that!
@@splatd7978 Thanks, I always love animals. I watched Wild Kratts and read animal books which is how I know a lot about animals. If there's one animal you want to know, I'll be happy to tell you.
@@jameswolf4894 Well, they're fast when they dive, which makes them reach speeds up to 240mph. But they're not a fast flyer to catch a pigeon.
SPEED IS KEY
There should be a All Pigeon Cam network.
I remember once a falcon flew right into my pigeon loft... chase one of my birds right in there...
Did it catch one ? That's awful. We have 8 pigeons and one is hand raised. They fly in a group. And mostly sit up on top of our roof. I do worry about these falcon and hawks. Have you found a way to keep them at bay?
@@karenyeshua5086 feed the crows they seems to be scared of them, also listen to a certain sound the wild birds make to know when they are around. I raised my pigeons around my dog (German Shepherd) so they stay on the ground which helps and she don't birds apart from the pigeons also helps keep cats away which use to be a big problem.
But the falcon chase my pigeons from sky to loft something I very very rarely see must of been starving to be that desperate.
@@nikj5460 thank you for your reply! We see crows about but never thought to try and feed them 🤔
Our neighbour has 3 cats and has been the biggest threat. We put up a higher fence and netting but the cats are still finding their way into our garden other side 😡
I've just ordered some plastic pointy strips to go on top of our wall. It dosn't harm the cats but hopefully puts them off walking along the wall!!!
As much as it's lovely keeping pigeons as pets it's also very stessful keeping the predators away ☹
@@karenyeshua5086 I use to have cat issues then got a German Shepherd and I've train him to get along with the pigeons after chasing them for a week straight now they even go up to him without issues and the dog hates other birds especially those Indian minors.
Once I was watching two birds fight in the air. They notice the diving hawk as it was almost on them. One bird went for the woods, the other went away from the woods. That little bird could fly, but the falcon was better.
360p?

No, it is flying for its lunch. One missed lunch won’t kill it.
im sorry but i was laughing so hard at the pigeon pov it just looks so sped up
I was wondering, do you know of anyone in Hawaii, that is an expert on peregrine falcons?
It's allowed here? Man beach the only thing holding me back from Falcons is the fact that I thought it was not allowed here
Oh lordy, another bunch who just can't enjoy watching a bird or wild animal freely doing it's thing without resorting to try and enslave them for their pleasure with the disguise of "I want a pet!" 🙄
just like F16 vs baloon
i just came to see its cause i have picked my gaming name from this bird...absolutely love it
One of my bird been hurt 2time by them and 2nd time died 😢
The peregrines are pretty cool; I've seen them a few times as in the city where I live we have a few nesting pairs amongst the high-rises. There they are legally protected by the city who use them as a natural (and very effective) form of pigeon control!
Where can I find the falcon?
