    It wasn't until I started watching these videos that I realized how freaking terrifying herons are.

    • @valenciasanchez93

      CJCroen1393 they are cold blooded killers. It stabs with its beak

      For u maybe terrifying, for you maybe cold killers; for me they simply get hungry and look for something to eat; if he could talk, he would say: i get hungry often times, dont mind me

      And I thought birds of prey were brutal. They have nothing on herons.

    It is really awesome how the Heron uses its beak as a deadly weapon to stab through a catch until it is rendered dead or nearly dead before swallowing whole. Apparently, there is very little the Heron is afraid to take on.

  • @spiritmatter1553
    @spiritmatter1553 4 роки тому

    Quit complaining about the shaky-cam. It’s obvious that the cameraman was being a true journalist, trying to simply capture the action, while being under attack by the other eels in the swamp who wanted him to put down the camera and go rescue their friend. The cameraman held to his principles and got the best shots he could while surviving an eel attack. He deserves accolades for his professionalism.

  • @ultimatemexicano3535
    @ultimatemexicano3535 9 років тому +2

    No problem, you could still generally see what was going on there, it looked like quite a big fight there! So in the end was the heron really able to swallow that huge eel down entirely? It looked like the desperate eel put up some fight and was gulped still wriggling about as well?! I wonder if it had any chance of escaping?

    So the Heron never waits for it’s prey to die, it was always rushes to swallow it whilst it’s still alive?

    • @gregorymoore2877
      @gregorymoore2877 Рік тому

      I think it just enjoys impaling it over and over. Once the victim is dead, the only way to hide it is to swallow it.

    1. you camera pixel count needs to be higher and your zoom less. That means any "Zoom" applied can be done in software, thus no camera shakes, especially if it has motion tracking to stabilise final image.

    Every single time in these videos you get to the money shot where the animal is swallowing and the cameraperson gets all excited and decides to swap hands or zoom in or do something else to completely ruin the shot. If you're going to bother to capture this at all, just do one job and hold the camera steady. You've already got the shot, no need to try to improve it. Zoom in afterwards on adobe. People are so fucking stupid and annoying.
