"She's keeping pace with us without even trying" . . . meanwhile, she's rapidly flapping her wings to keep pace and not just effortlessly gliding 😂😂😂

it aint trying tho

@Ira_Avaritia 6 лет назад

That's incredible!! Your job is truly amazing, & I'm embarrassed to say I'm a lil bit jealous lol

Thanks for not disabling comments on this video for your dinosaur-related videos are scientifically disputable and although entertaining at times I am becoming annoyed by not being able to enlighten others about my hypothesis of dinosaurs.

@KhanMann66 6 лет назад

Maybe if they actually took the dinosaur topic seriously, BBC might not get so much hate. Keep it logical and not fantasy.

@Amy-zb6ph 6 лет назад

There are a lot of those where I live, thankfully. They are beautiful and quite impressive birds. I love to watch them!

That's just incredible!! 🦅

@sshum00 6 лет назад

I'm pretty sure the falcon's trying plenty lol.

@ebsanu 6 лет назад

Shelby S I think the point is this isn't even it trying it's hardest. You can see that it just glides a couple of times and is still able to keep speed. Also, that is a tiny animal in comparison with comparitively tiny muscles. For it to keep that speed for that long is remarkable. Perigon falcons are built for great speeds while diving which isn't the same as flying at speed for long periods of times. So not sure, but there might be more to him saying that the birds not "trying".

@Reu_ag 6 лет назад

The can reach up to 200mph when they are diving that's insane!

@orlduniverse 3 года назад

I different this man and his show today. I can feel the love and joy he has for these animals on land, air, and sea. It's beautiful. He talks about them like he's cheering them on. I can't help but cheer them in too. He also talks in a way to show you that they are not the monsters in the movies. They are part of the Earth like we are. Omg and how about them play ng massive attack, prodigy, and ulrich schnauss?? Lol Huge fan now!

That is one great scene! Are you going to upload some clips from Steve's Deadly Pole to Pole series as well?

Omg I saw this when I was a kid and was obsessed with the song in the background, does anyone know the name of the song? :/

Another arc-worthy video of proving that peregrine falcons are indeed the fastest animals in the entire world. I didn't think for a moment that it would keep pace when flying in horizontal speed, but gotdamn, that is one impeccably fast bird. Even more faster when nosediving (stooping really) - aaow man, talk about incredible high-rate velocity there. Now I personally think the peregrine falcon is one my favorite species of birds. So cool 😎

all fun and games until the driver does a break check

@wag18 6 лет назад

Great video. I'd like to know how fast the car was going at top speed. Peregrine Falcons can hit fast speeds in a dive, this experiment was not a dive. Thanks!

@ArmanArman-jd6vd 5 лет назад

What speed did he develop?

@andy-the-gardener 3 года назад

a couple of problems with this experiment. firstly they did not push the falcon to the max. 40 mph?? really. surely a peregrine can do 70 mph flat out. would have to, to 'catch the pigeon'. even a starling can do 50 mph at least. they needed to speed up alot to see what it could really do. second problem is slipstreaming. the car is going to be helping the falcon quite alot. a motorcycle would probably be a better vehicle to test the bird

@Semendrija123 3 года назад

That peregrine was flying at least 50 mph or more because she was easily catching up with the car that was going 40 mph. Also, the wing beat frequency and the depth of the wing beat are indicating that the falcon was flying +50 mph. Very important thing about the strait level flight is the wind speed and direction. It looks like the bird was having very light head wind. I have tested my peregrines with GPS telemetry, and the highest speed in no wind conditions was 75 mph! Slipstream can be somewhat beneficial , but the big problem is turbulent air behind the car that is causing problems for the bird to have uniform and efficient wing beats which reduces the overall performance. So, in order to measure the exact/true air speed, the bird needs to fly in no wind conditions, or we need to know the wind speed using anemometer (or some other means of measuring the wind speed) and than adding the wind speed in to calculations.

@andy-the-gardener 3 года назад

@@Semendrija123 i agree. these tests are meaningless without making allowances for wind direction, speed or vehicle slipstreaming and turbulence. ive seen a couple of these tests of level flight speed of peregrines over the years and both were conducted poorly and no way reflected the birds real capabilities. 40 mph. yeah right. part of the problem is motivation. a peregrine is inevitably going to be far quicker when actually hunting, than just following a car. esp if its a truly fit wild bird.
