tomleone 0 #1 February 5, 2007 Hey I came accross this podcast. It is the coolest national geographic I've seen. This guy trained his falcon to dive with him out of the plane and retrieve a lure that he drops in freefall. http://podcastmedia.nationalgeographic.com/wildchronicles_pc18_TerminalVelocity.m4vTake risks not to escape life, but to prevent life from escaping ~ Author Unknown (but I wish I knew) YouveGottaTryThis.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diverds 0 #4 February 5, 2007 Norman Kent's film Willing to Fly has a great segment with Frightful the falcon. Not sure if this is some of the same footage because it's been awhile since I saw the film. I do know there were more and better shots of the falcon in Willing to Fly though.
