    It wasn't until I started watching these videos that I realized how freaking terrifying herons are.

    • @valenciasanchez93
      @valenciasanchez93 Před 4 lety +5

      CJCroen1393 they are cold blooded killers. It stabs with its beak

      @pepsicola6951 Před 4 lety +4

      For u maybe terrifying, for you maybe cold killers; for me they simply get hungry and look for something to eat; if he could talk, he would say: i get hungry often times, dont mind me

      And I thought birds of prey were brutal. They have nothing on herons.

    It was a mistake to zoom in. A steady wider shot would have been better.

  • @faerieSAALE
    @faerieSAALE Před 4 lety +4

    It is really awesome how the Heron uses its beak as a deadly weapon to stab through a catch until it is rendered dead or nearly dead before swallowing whole. Apparently, there is very little the Heron is afraid to take on.

  • @ultimatemexicano3535
    @ultimatemexicano3535 Před 9 lety +2

    No problem, you could still generally see what was going on there, it looked like quite a big fight there! So in the end was the heron really able to swallow that huge eel down entirely? It looked like the desperate eel put up some fight and was gulped still wriggling about as well?! I wonder if it had any chance of escaping?

  • @forefatherofmankind3305
    @forefatherofmankind3305 Před 4 lety +3

    Good... I opened the video just to see the dancing grass ...
    No one's interested in heron eating an EEl, right?

  • @spiritmatter1553
    @spiritmatter1553 Před 3 lety

    Quit complaining about the shaky-cam. It’s obvious that the cameraman was being a true journalist, trying to simply capture the action, while being under attack by the other eels in the swamp who wanted him to put down the camera and go rescue their friend. The cameraman held to his principles and got the best shots he could while surviving an eel attack. He deserves accolades for his professionalism.

    So the Heron never waits for it’s prey to die, it was always rushes to swallow it whilst it’s still alive?

    • @gregorymoore2877
      @gregorymoore2877 Před rokem

      I think it just enjoys impaling it over and over. Once the victim is dead, the only way to hide it is to swallow it.

    @thepvporg Před 3 lety +1

    1. you camera pixel count needs to be higher and your zoom less. That means any "Zoom" applied can be done in software, thus no camera shakes, especially if it has motion tracking to stabilise final image.

      Not all eels are electric. Electric eels live in South America in the Amazon. (Not sure if they're included with Prime 😉) It does make me wonder whether a heron's beak would conduct electricity.

    Every single time in these videos you get to the money shot where the animal is swallowing and the cameraperson gets all excited and decides to swap hands or zoom in or do something else to completely ruin the shot. If you're going to bother to capture this at all, just do one job and hold the camera steady. You've already got the shot, no need to try to improve it. Zoom in afterwards on adobe. People are so fucking stupid and annoying.
