My grandfather bred these way back in the 1930s with stock obtained from the British Isles..In his diaries he clearly stated that mortality rates where high not due to predators but once the crazy ones started to perform..they just had no control to stop.
Bruh it's a terrible sport, the pigeons aren't "performing", all pigeons can tumble, its a neurological problem that can be deadly if they hit something or if as you said it doesn't stop. However what are are doing is selectively breeding the ones with the worst case thus creating a breed of pigeons that all roll excessively, basically inbred retarded pigeons for our amusement
My son today asked me what my favourite animal is and was shocked when I said it was a type of pigeon. I’ve kept dogs cats reptiles goats pigs chickens of all types and nothing comes remotely close to these birds. God I love Birmingham rollers
This was a stroll down memory lane, however even 6 years after my posting I still enjoyed the slow motion in motion, where spin flaws and variation can be closely examined, but the impact of it for me is still impressive, alongside the sound track too.
One year ago, a beautiful, almost all white pigeon moved into our barn. We set up a food and water station for her. The first time we saw her fly, we thought there was something wrong with her. Since then, we did some research and found out that she is a roller. We love our 'wild' bird.
@@BartCoppens Nothing wrong or nor any defect. Its totaly natural and genetical. There's a university in USA which did a long research on rollers and tumblers and found out that its absolutely 100% natural. And some pigeons also learn from other rollers by seeing them rolling.
I showed my friend a photo of this pidgeon I saw on the roof opposite my house, it had a big tail and puffy chest. It's a tumbler pidgeon. I havent seen it tumble yet, I think it must be someones pet that has escaped.
Darwin called them "tumbler" pigeons, and it is believed they figured greatly into his theory of natural selection... as they were a perfect apposition... artificial selection at its finest. Awesome! Thank you so much for posting this!
To those saying 'sloppy junk', all rollers will look sloppy when the film is played back in slow motion like this. Most roller vids are rubbish, but this is quality filming and is slowed to show what actually happens when they roll. It is plain to see that some are rolling straighter than others, but I bet they look better when played back at normal speed.
silo13 I use to have a roller with a flock of high-fliers he use to roll and then catch back up with the high flighers. So high that I would loose sight of where the flock was. Also let that roller go from seaside and it made it back to union city 2 days later. It was probably about 110 miles. I thought I lost him. My next door neighbor like 10 years later told me he was sorry that he was the one that accidentally shot it with a Bebe gun.
I have been quite a vivid birder from when I was young after working in the Kruger National park for 8months like 8 years ago and only yesterday did my friends dad point them out to me. Was the craziest thing cant believe I have never noticed them before.
I just found out this species of pigeon existed a few minutes ago. Listening to “Snap Judgement’s Halloween Special: Spooked” on NPR (93.9), and the guy in one of the stories talked about them
Hawks got a couple of my birds, one a wonderful kit leader! Sigh! They say they 'learned' to roll to escape predators, LOL! When pursued by the hawk or other raptor they suddenly drop 20 ft. down, and the hawk has to go back,wheel, and turn etc ! It works pretty good too, so most often they are safe!
one of my female rollers lost control today and rolled around 200 ft. all the way to the ground. She is still alive but beat up pretty bad.hope she lives , never will I fly her again
Привет Стоян! Мне стало интересно откуда вы?! И как вы знакомы с нашей птицей Роллерс??? Вы их тоже держите? Наше хоби выросло до БОЛЬШИХ пределов, так что Чемпионат мира(финалисты) уже НЕвозможно закончить в 10 недель... Надеюсь услышать от вас ответ!!! Вы можете мне писать по Английски, по Немецки, или по Русски! Я также понимаю когда мне пишут по Сербски и по Голландски!!!
When I was a kid there was a man that had roller pigeons. He made the mistake of breeding deep rollers together. If you breed two deep rollers together, they will roll until they hit the ground and die. It was pretty sad.
Never seen such awesome Birds! I have deep regards for the person having those beauties of the world. Wish to see them in person. Can I get those in India?
Sure lots of Indian people have kept pigeons. You can find them and purchase a couple or just catch one at the beach. Soon he will attracts mate and you will have baby pigeons. Just put some seeds everyday. Its easy to start your own coop! Good luck
An uncle across the street had a bunch of these or very similar ones. Would look like they glitch out every now and then was crazy to watch. R.I.P uncle🤙🏼
que maravilla de video, viendo escenas como esas, es por lo que uno le siguen dando ganas de seguir criando palomas gracias por esos minutos de alegria
Super performance , thanks for posting these, just got 4 pairs of birmingham roller sweet colors ones to boot and now got my first young i hope the could perform like this video one day
I don't know why people have to always talk shit I mean come on now can't you be happy for the dude he enjoys his birds weather they roll tight or not he loves them I'm happy for people who are doing anything besides something bad you know come on now I really enjoyed watching them even if they weren't spinning God Bless
Fun fact: The birds are bred so its muscles bend the wrong way and messes up balance, which makes it so it can't fly, which scares it and pigeons have the instinct to fly when startled, which in turn puts it in a constant loop of panic and flipping because it can't fly right. Totally unethical.
@@TORAPEANDMURDERMuscles don't "bend", they contract and relax. So where on a roller are these muscles that generate this action? I'm curious to know. Thanks!

Father's day got me thinking of Rollers. He especially loved the silvers. Thanks.
Silvers are my favourite.
One of the best videos ever and the music fits like a glove.

This is amazing. I didn't realize this pigeon behavior until I heard Hannibal Lector describing Clarice Starling in "Hannibal" as a deep roller.
My son today asked me what my favourite animal is and was shocked when I said it was a type of pigeon. I’ve kept dogs cats reptiles goats pigs chickens of all types and nothing comes remotely close to these birds. God I love Birmingham rollers
Some of the best footage I've ever seen.... Could watch over an over...
Great job, quality birds👍
I love the spin on the white pigeon but love the blk body white wings in the air
I love my rollers. I live high on a mountain, and it is so amazing to watch them fly. They take me up there with them it seems.
Strap on a go pro, I would love to go too
I’ve been up there
I have never observed this type of action in pigeons. Amazing!
rollers and tumblers were bred for their ability to roll and tumble in the air
Mike Tyson brought me here and it is fascinating 😄

I wish I know what kind of bathroom and where Finn🤔
Very nice bathroom I have never seen like in my life from any country😘
@@user-ll1fn1ff3v ?bathroom
I find this absolutely fascinating. This is at the top of my envy list. Total white pigeon, Hold my beer
This video Lives up to its title!
They are Magnificent!
I have never seen anything better in my life.
Really enjoyed watching these guys to MY FAV SONG!
Totally flipped over this video of your birds, thanks for sharing, impressed, "Keep rolling them out'
Didn't think the birds had any vilocitythe birds are changing axis might be their a little on the weak side
This was a stroll down memory lane, however even 6 years after my posting I still enjoyed the slow motion in motion, where spin flaws and variation can be closely examined, but the impact of it for me is still impressive, alongside the sound track too.
Wow! This is a fantastic performance! Great video! Have a good day! Thumbs up!
A wild pigeon lives in my bathroom right now)

Something IS wrong with her if she's a roller - it's a genetic defect.
@@BartCoppens Nothing wrong or nor any defect. Its totaly natural and genetical. There's a university in USA which did a long research on rollers and tumblers and found out that its absolutely 100% natural. And some pigeons also learn from other rollers by seeing them rolling.
@@FirstLast-gc6ss It's genetic, but it's a genetic defect which is chosen for. It's basically a type of seizure they have.
Called tumblers in my neck of the woods, they can be used to help get racing pigeons back to the ground to get clocked after a race.
I showed my friend a photo of this pidgeon I saw on the roof opposite my house, it had a big tail and puffy chest. It's a tumbler pidgeon. I havent seen it tumble yet, I think it must be someones pet that has escaped.

Wonderful video and incredible birds.

Mike Tyson brought me here. And if I was to describe myself as an animal in my struggles in life, it would be a roller pigeon too
Both Tyson and a pigeon that just rolled in front of me, brought me here

Does anyone know how the rolling originated?
I have 2 adult Birmingham rollers (And 2 babies) and the adults are so fun to watch. :)
Awesome 😊
I never realized how awesome these birds really are. Most think they’re just dirt creatures
I want those, how much cost?
Интересный вёрт, когда то у нас в Селидово были такие голуби, мы их называли вертуны, но николаевские голуби их вытеснили. С уважением, Александр
У меня иногда головастики так забиваются. Только эти останавливаются, а головастики убиваются об землю.
я только одного всё никак не пойму - зачем они это делают?
Very nice pigeons
