Would you volunteer to be one of these two people?

[True Dough]

[ret5hd]

1. Hell yeah!

[OAITW r.2.0]

2. Most awesome.

The bird figured it out, perfectly.

[flying_wahini]

3. Expert maneuver. So yes.

[Skittles]

4. that is so cool

wow

[Solly Mack]

5. In a heartbeat.

[Laffy Kat]

6. Sure. The raptor is an expert. nt

[RockRaven]

7. Absolutely. Maybe one in a million people have had that experience...

[lastlib]

8. SURE!--I LOVE having the shit scared out of me by a born killer.

(Or should I refer to it as a "hatched killer"?

[2naSalit]

9. Oh sure!

I would do it in a heartbeat.

[Mr.Bill]

10. I would trust that bird

more than most people I know.

[pazzyanne]

12. + 1 nt

[3Hotdogs]

11. No. Those talons can tear a big hole in me.

[monkeyman1]

13. THAT IS "SUPER COOL "

[ffr]

14. Of course, who wouldn't? It's just a friendly Harris' Hawk

They have no interest in humans, except when we help them hunt, as in Falconry. This one is certainly partnered with a falconer.

[burrowowl]

18. Thanks for link!

[Demobrat]

15. Certainly

That bird knows which side of his bread has the butter, and who has the raw meat in their pocket.

[Ka-Dinh Oy]

16. Yes

That is so cool. Do I get to pet it afterwards?

[sinkingfeeling]

17. Yes, but I'd probably flinch at the last second.

[Pepsidog]

19. Dinosaurs first appeared between 247 and 240 million years ago. They ruled the Earth for about

175 million years until an extinction event 65.5 million years ago wiped out all of them, except for the avian dinosaurs. (From search query). That’s cool.

[Bayard]

20. Totally

Hawks are awesome acrobats.

[Permanut]

21. Where can I sign up?

That's a ten on the cool meter.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

22. Hell yeah

And I would love to become a falconer.

A neighbor of mine at the old apartment complex I lived at,he had 3 falcons.

When they shrieked indoors it was deafening. Especially standing next to them.

Anyhow he'd let his falcons out on the balcony he had three perches set up on his balcony. It was always cool to see the hawks perching out there.

I got to hold his falcons with the glove on sometimes. They were really sweet birds.

[Warpy]

23. Birdie didn't want a broken wing

so it was a pretty low risk stunt for the people.

[Duppers]

24. Yes & would be thrilled to do so.

These raptors have amazing skills which I'd trust, especially since its handler does.

[TreasonousBastard]

25. Absolutely! That's one well trained hawk.
