I've never seen a leopard jump from that height to catch prey. Incredible!
Just when you think you've seen it all ..
The things animals do for food is amazing
In Africa the impossible is the possible.
Jaguars are even more insane. They jump at the botton of the river and can drag out cayman from water.
@@Apple-Internationalleopard is more impressive . If leopard misses she dies. The jaguar has the water for protection
When you think you have seen it all, then you get to see this.
There is always something new to see in a wildlife documentary.
Try being there in the wild yourself
Imagine jumping from that height and falling directly onto the deer's horns.
The clarity of the videography, as it's more a cinematic, the leap of leopard , the patience & effort of the team is worth mentioning & as always , well narrated by David Attenborough
What is even more astounding is the camera man hiding and capturing these incredible shots.. Salute to the cameraman and BBC as well..
No, they use robot to capture

something like that
That jump gave me the chills! It's unbelievable that any creature made of flesh and bone could land in one piece from that height! I guess nature is full of surprises...💚🐆
God's creation at its finest.
Almost all feline (Felidae) family capable of doing that. Evolution that branched off tiger and domestic cats before 10.000.000 BC. Almost the same time modern human and gorilla have common ancestor 10.000.000 BC.
@@keremardicli4013you misspelled evolution.
@@AH-AHS stop making things up just because you learned something about evolution.
Just because a cat can run, does not mean it has the speed of a cheetah.
they have different skill setts
@@keremardicli4013 no god
The leopard is the most remarkable hunter in the animal kingdom . The stuff they can do can't be compared . Seen them flipping in the air killing impala . Jump like huge heights . Pound for pound king in my opinion . The strength to carry food up trees as well !!
Wow! It’s always hard watching anything being killed…but that is the epitome of fearless determination! How she doesn’t break her leg or back is beyond belief. And we think we work for our dinner…
I just watched it on the BBC. The third programme so far in this series. As always, stunning to watch.
This leopard's determination and skill in the hunt is truly awe-inspiring. 🐆🦌
Nature's raw beauty and the circle of life are on full display in this incredible footage. The leopard's courage and precision highlight the challenges and triumphs of survival in the wild. A reminder of the delicate balance that exists in our natural world.
Nature's wonders never cease to amaze us! 🌿👏
And all they do is try to destroy it with their dumb livestocks and worthless ideas and stupid trash they throw in the ocean
Hunting a prey is always accompanied with risk. This is riskier by much! Typical ambush with a big element of secrecy, but a slight miscalculation would become very costly. Landing on a prey would be clumsy, while landing far gives a prey time to flee. Pinpoint accuracy & extreme agility is required. Amazing! Amazing leopard & BBC staff who have spotted this unique, quite unusual mode of prey catching!
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!
Hats off to the hunter for its perseverance and precision.
Fantastic episode! That transition from deserts to grassland was an epic composition.
This was the best documentary I watched
agree 100x100
Must've only watched only 1 documentary in your whole life 😮
@@TheEnigmaticDeenTruth lmao no lil stop starting arguments drama queen I watched all nature docs and this was my favorite
@@s33animallover 👍🏾😂
@@TheEnigmaticDeenTruthwhat’s so funny blud?
That was a tremendous bit of hunting strategy! Then, to display such strength and agility by carrying her prey, which probably weighs more than she does, into the tree tops. Amazing
Amazing
Incredible
They have to do that or lose the kill to lions or hyenas
@zetectic7968 I know exactly why leopards take their kill into trees. I was not asking a question
Relax bud@@feedback1814
@@feedback1814Cool down, you can't blame him, your name did not clarify whether you wanted or were just willing to give some feedback 😂
The cinematography is absolutely beautiful!
The BBC has the best animal documentaries hands down. Sir David is such a legend here.
Cats, big and small, are the coolest animals in the world. Absolutely amazing to jump from that distance. And that's exactly why the leopard and jaguar are my top favorite animals
Amazing
This is one of my favourite moments in this series and I was saying how did that leopard survive because when David said leopards have killed themselves jumping from these heights I got very anxious and shocked but I think that she very clever and she knows what she is doing because leopards are intelligent and smart animals and have good eye sight
Simply amazing!
That was incredible to watch, finally something new! 👏👏👏
Incredible animal. Incredible camera work. Incredible series.
What a crazy but epic hunt
By far the most skilled hunter in the animal kingdom . Crazy what they can do leopards
Fun fact: Jaguars hunt in the same way, but over rivers & streams so they have a somewhat softer landing.
Yup. When I saw that clip of a jaguar diving onto a caiman, I was in shock.
Water is not always a softer landing depending on the height.
Yes they do
Jaguars don't jump from that height, if there's a stone in the river it would be killed by impact.
In the grass savannah it's safer to make such a high jump
A literal leap of faith by the leopard.
Big cats are so determined while hunting! But it can be challenging! Our crew got on camera two lions trying to hunt a buffalo. It's exciting to see both lions in action, but also how the buffalo reacts.
THIS MAGNIFICENT BEAUTY
That's got to be up there with the best scence I've ever watched, incredible.
I think I have to agree with you
That is absolutely staggering. They are one amazing animal, that’s like falling from a three story house! unbelievable and a beautiful animal too. 😵💫
David says two story, but he said 9 meters! !
Landing directly on the prey softened the fall clearly but still incredibly risky, but accurate.
The kill itself is upsetting obviously, but its nature. The tremendous pressure on the neck would put the prey’s lights out within a few seconds.
A dramatic hunt by leopardess 🐆
The serious narration by David sir🎙️
And perfect hd videography 🎥
Let’s take a minute to appreciate that after the kill, the leopard carried the antelope into the tree to eat. Pretty amazing.
That's insane and the tree itself was majestic too
Your voice is so good. It gives the real feelings.
This has to be one of the most amazing things i have ever watched, this is pretty much unbelieveable. Cats are apex of apex
Cant even imagine how precise this hunt was, blown 🤯
This leopard has learned that to jump from such a height and survive would require he land directly on top of his prey, bite it's throat and use it to break his fall.
*its throat, not it is throat, that’s what the apostrophe is for, it is a contraction of ‘it is’.
Unas imágenes sorprendentes un uno de los animales más maravillosos del planeta. Gracias por hacer posible estos documentales❤
Que belo leopardo fêmea é tão bela, os olhos hipnotizantes e corajosa !! Incrível...a árvore o seu refúgio e observatório!!
Congo.
There are more Leopards in Africa than Lions because they are so adaptable and prey on a wider variety of animals, but they stay so well hidden it's hard to know just how many there are. Magnificent creatures.
That was amazing! Great footage BBC EARTH
I wish I add retractable claws to climb trees like that
love you bbcEarth keep on surprising us it never gets old
seeing that style of hunting, made me think about human evolution , when were were transitioning from trees to grasslands. incredible film work
Survival is a MUST!
The Leopard timed her jump to perfection....what a clean job...well executed
Incredible thank you 😊
Wowzers that leopard and sir David equals perfection
2:33 That jump surprised me! The cat near my house also jumped from a high place like that as if unharmed, now I see it in leopards
Very best documentary
These beasts are the perfect hunter.
Crunch crunch crunch .. the sound of food being crunched under hungry teeth - anyone else eating potato chips and drinking wine right now? 😄
You know all the sounds in these animal documentaries are fake, right? They’re added after the fact.
@@kikujirob1ll Yes, although I don't think of that when watching, but if you asked me I would remember. We should do one. Get a BBC clip, mute the sound, and add our own. We could eat potato chips and record that sound, LOL!! 😂 Add voices of the baboons!! 😂
😮 jaw-dropping!
The impala experienced apocalypse from on high😂
Wow, this is Remarkable! ❤
That’s no leopard. Blud obviously think he’s Catman.
Thats what real "brave and stunning" looks like
This was soooó epic...
Best documentary ever.
Insane close up footage ❤ david u r amazing
Well, it's in the name. They are a Leap hard.
Bbc has done a fantastic job with these documentary series. Great production.
Quality of the video & narration is out of this world. Not forgetting the jump by the Leopard!
Chipazua! She is well known by the guides in South Luangwa national park, Zambia. We saw her last year with our guide Yoram at Shenton, dragging a baboon into the brush. 50 baboons screeching at her, but brave Chipa didn't care. She is still doing well at age 11, a testament to her hunting prowess!
My god! What an amazing video shot ! Simply incredible 👏
absolutelty beautiful and absolutely terrifying, from multiple view points
That was a crazy jump. Stealth. Though I was sad she got one I was happy she got a meal. Not like she can go to the grocery store and buy whatever she wants. Great footage.
It's feels like cinematic experience📹📹
Nice to see BBC finally seems to have learned from the first episode mistakes, because the second one was trully beautiful and full of color and this one seems to be mesmerizinglly colorfull as well. Thanks Godness, no more color desaturation !!!
10/10 for that landing! Well done Leopard.
THE PREDATOR!
Incredible. What a gifted cat! Able to do so many incredible things! ❤👍
0:13 Me oversleeping during the day after staying awake binge watching for too long last night.
0:14 Thats that good good sleep right there 💤😴
Good job for the cameramen. The angles, the movements, the timing are excellent 👍
That was the money shot in slo mo
Incredible to be at the right place and capture that
This exactly why no animal, especially predators, should be not only trifled with but never underestimated. Most of humanity is like the deer or worse like cows.
Victim impala never knew or even saw its attacker before being bitten! My my!
Leopards are underrated
Leopard...good strategy n good hunter 👍
Als der besten Jagdvideos, die ich je bei Tieren gesehen habe🇹🇷🌹🇹🇷
i cant believe their joints and hip are going to enable them to do this for long
Wow! that is courageous!
Unbelieveable😮
That is simply outrageous 😮. What an awesome animal. It will of carried it back up the tree as well. Incredible!!
That landing was smooooooth
South Africa 🇿🇦
Jaw dropping. Never seen something like this in the wild before.
As forest explorer, I can't sleep under trees anymore
Extraordinaire machine à chasser, sans doute l'une des plus efficaces du règne animal.
They are so strong for their size
that's unbelievable wow
These dedication is required
Then we can achieve anything ❤
Best documentary I ever watched
No member of cat family matches Leopards in terms of daredevil hunting.
My, my the ONLY cat fly like bird n decent aerial attack, NO other cat can replicate what leopard cat can n why Leopard is super cat!
After long time best video ❤❤
I’ve never experienced this stuff, but listening to the safari experts talk about Leopard abilities is unbelievable. They are like the ninjas of the animal kingdom🥷=🐆
not for dinner... for hunger
How brave she must've been to jump from such heights. She is relentless!
I'm speechless.. Just wow 😮
