A bird-eating fish... Owh how the tables have turned

[NicholasWayne]

This is what everyone wished their Magikarp would do instead of just 'splash'

[aldotorres]

"So there is a fish here that, amazingly, has a brain capable of calculating the airspeed, altitude, and trajectory of a bird."
1:32 That bird got away because the fish forgot to carry the one while adding.

The dude with the duck lure: *It's my time to shine*

[heykalanargyarifqy]

Bird: *eat fish*

Trevally: *Uno reverse card*

The birds came to eat fish, but are now being eaten by even bigger fish.


The irony.

[chavamara]

But could they calculate the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

[DJPoom]

I’m a YouTuber passionate with production and cinematography... but I can NEVER figure out the production techniques of the BBC documents... absolute mind blowing to the fact that it looks staged which is impossible 👍🏻

[sibasishsahoo]

Waah!!! What a photography. I liked that scene when the fish was trying to catch the bird but failed, which was clearly photographed by the interface between air and water. In a single frame two of them are captured. Simply awesome.

"There's always a bigger fish"

[SohanDsouza]

Expectation: bird eating fish
Reality: bird-eating fish

[chrisakacanto]

Next time i go fly-fishing, i grab me some pidgeons as lure.

Fish: Can calculate airspeed, velocity, altitude and trajectory of an unaided swallow.

Me: Now where did I put my carkeys?

and I can't believe this was happening in my backyard and never knew about it. this was filmed in Seychelles and I believe it was the first place this behaviour had been observed. I've lived here all my life and never heard of it. and trevally is one of our favourite fish to eat in Seychelles

[graphite]

I've seen terns catching fish, but
...now it's the trevally's tern.

[intellectualblackking]

That’s frickin crazy! It shows how there is no standard to the food chain any creature can be at the top of it.

[namihana]

Theres a plenty of fish in the sea...

Trevally: *NO*

[jsaladin]

The best narrator for any animal video

[wearethey]

I'd totally crack a beer and watch these fish catch birds all day lmao
