Too cool to miss - National Geographic Falcon & Skydiver

Recommended Posts

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.

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.
