the shot from below was one of the most creepy things ive ever experienced. her eyes werent leaving the cameralens, or the "prey", for even the fraction of a second. terrifying.

@wittywarbler1117 3 года назад

Bro I felt like a prey animal in that moment

@John-ei1wv 3 года назад

Its cute😍

@NoLifeButMyOwn 10 лет назад

Those eyes really stare into your soul.....

@NoLifeButMyOwn 10 лет назад

***** Might want to ease up on the ganja while you surf the inter-webs, yeah? People might think you're saying weird things...

@tenedria 10 лет назад

bet those eyes can hypnotize mouses... I mean when you really look at it, the face of that owl while attacking could look a bit like a mouse's face. Maybe thats why their feathers are white instead of being camouflaged.

@JuanDVene 10 лет назад

tenedria They remind me of a Janus mask

@gregwhitton2293 4 года назад

I'm not sure precisely which, but native Americans used to believe owls were what transported souls into the after life

@nalanix3058 4 года назад

looking at an owl's eyes. is like looking into the void. but if you zoom out a bit its this little fluffy creature just wanting a lil rodent snack

@leolldankology 10 лет назад

To us this looks amazing and graceful, but this actually a rats bad acid trip.

@Fugue602 8 лет назад

So majestic, but yet so terrifying.

@bryandyer5454 8 лет назад

+Fugue State It's most terrifying if you follow its eyes the whole time.

@CJCroen1393 8 лет назад

The last thing a mouse sees...

@Fritzafella 7 лет назад

More accurately the last thing a mouse most likely sees is deadly sharp talons or the rapidly approaching ground (If a barn Owl doesn't immediately squeeze it prey to total death it drops it from an incredible height), but imagine being the mouse seing this angel of death racing towards you!

@dreamwarrior93 10 лет назад

Those wings I tell you! She's like an angel approaching! Well, not literally an angel, obviously. lol What I mean is her way of approaching as she was flying and moving her wings like that. It's truly amazing! BEAUTIFUL creature! :))

@JuanDVene 10 лет назад

Until you hear the call of a barn owl. O_O That's definitely not angelic

@dreamwarrior93 10 лет назад

JuanDVene I've heard their screeches...The first time I heard it, it actually scared me, giving me a heart attack. Definitely NOT angelic. O_OV

@dreamwarrior93 10 лет назад

***** They say they were one of the Guardians of the Gateways of Hell. To keep any wandering soul from accidentally entering Hell by guiding them back to Heaven or something.... Maybe they really are "Angels of Death"....

@dreamwarrior93 10 лет назад

***** It's got something to do with religion, I think Christianity in particular. I saw a youtube video about religions and they mentioned about it. But I don't remember the video anymore. Since owls tend to be seen as the Wise Owl or that they represent wisdom and that they can See All since they are active at night, that's probably why they chose the owls to be a part of religion and to be the Guardians of the Gates of Hell. But they're not alone as Guardians of Hell. There's another animal that also guards the Gates as well, but I can't remember what it was, unfortunately.... I'm sure youtube and google might have the answers we're looking for. Question is, where do we start? :)

@georgedemean2228 9 лет назад

Jordan Lyons Back in Romania when you see Owls ...the Myth is like, they are reincarnate Angels of the loved ones that perished...coming back to visit. Round face and angel like Figure

@mokihaname 7 лет назад

Jordan Lyons that's what I was thinking while watching the owl.

@neopolly761 7 лет назад

Or the dystopian eye of the CCP getting a grip on you, you could distort it in any other way... It makes me think more honestly of how grasping it is to realize birds in general originate from dinosaurs !!=_=

@kalavaram_the_change 3 года назад

They are angels

@heatherwind 11 лет назад

ABSOLUTELY BREATHTAKING. The table view was freaky - watching her emotionless face as she swooped in like an angel of death. Beautiful and terrifying at the same time!

@krowenj 6 лет назад

I’ve watched this video so many times over the past couples years but seriously every time it’s almost emotional, so incredibly beautiful....like an angel

@EsReverni1 10 лет назад

This was so beautifully captured! I was mesmerized by her (owly) wings and intense focus that she appeared to be a hovering angel....until her talons came to view. She became a stunning angel of death. I just discovered these slo mo vids today (watched 9 so far) total eye candy. +1 Earth Unplugged

@apriljones1013 9 лет назад

The owl looks kind of hilarious if you imagine its wings aren't there. Just these long kangaroo-ish legs, a really short torso, and a huge head with no neck.

@apriljones1013 8 лет назад

HarryTuningIn They would also look stupid if you got rid of the torso and were left with a head, arms, and legs just stuck together in the middle.

@dentjoep 10 лет назад

A pity you guys added a soundtrack to the video, cos one of the most amazing aspects of an owl's flight it the complete silence of it. But: amazing images!

@OnlyThomasHayes 6 лет назад

It was in slow motion anyway. Sound track is fire too.

How does a barn owl spot its prey? Sam and Si get a closer look in slow motion

@teerifying 11 лет назад

owls for me are one of the most beautiful creatures man has ever seen... and visuals like this is rare... thank you for sharing it to everyone. Enchanted.

Until it tries to speak. The barn owl will haunt your nightmares X_X

This makes me want to master 3d animation just so I can make realistic angel wings on people.

@lisawalls1863 3 года назад

She's beautiful, some people say her eyes are terrifying and they might be, but remember it was in slow motion and in reality you can't take your eyes off of the prey(or target). I love owls they're cute >3

@quazarus 11 лет назад

That's pretty intimidating to see: a barn owl in the night, looking right into your soul and you can do nothing to stop it from killing you.

@ingajarvis3253 11 лет назад

one word to describe them - elegance

@DiddyKongsTrashCollection2001 8 лет назад

2:55 majestically unnerving

@kstormgeistgem461 11 лет назад

Stunning, absolutely Stunning! Like a prima ballerina of the air with out the pretense of being the real thing. [chuckles] There's something you could try getting in slow motion, even though it's not of nature. In fact there's nothing natural about them but still... To see a ballerina pirouette in slow motion would be cool.

@GyroShrike 6 лет назад

I'm doing an animation of a barn owl and all of these angles and shots help so much. Thank you so much for making this video.

@PurpleGiraffe066 11 лет назад

@InvalidationX145 11 лет назад

I was wonderfully surprised by this video... and was particularly surprised by how photoshopped her face looked between 3:52 to 4:07 just because of how still it is in comparison to the rest of the body. Eerily majestic.

@ChiefOfLife 11 лет назад

This will sound weird but you should do a slow motion of a turkey's head gobbling.

@starswater 7 лет назад

Incredible video. I am definitely going to use this as a drawing reference any time I need to draw wings in motion. Heck, even for a reference on feather details and how they actually appear when they're in a wing! There were absolutely some stunning shots of that in there, thank you so much for using a camera that could capture such details. Drawing singular feathers is one thing, but drawing a full wing and knowing _where_ to put the details so it doesn't look weird and over-rendered is a completely different ball game.

@eevee2joltyon 6 лет назад

What terrifies me, is how shes so locked-on to the camera. And those eyes are so still, large and dark. And as she comes in to grab the prey at the camera you cant help but focus on her eyes as her talons come in to capture you. Beautiful bird..
