Golden Eagle swoops on child.

On a trip to the seaside I once had a seagull swoop to steal a chip out of my hand. ... True story. lol.

A golden eagle can not carry 65 pounds, not even close.
Golden eagles at most weigh about 15 pounds.
How could a 15 pound bird carry a 65 pound animal?

I imagine a golden eagle can carry about 7 pounds tops.

Golden eagles can carry 3 TIMES their own body weight.

How did you come up with 7 pounds?

i wonder if a flock of eagles flew down onto a town and picked up 20 kids, if all these nuts would be talking about banning our national symbol now..

Without reading all 9 pages, 3 film students in Montreal admitted yesterday it was a hoax.

Despite all the people claiming this is real it is actually fake. I believe it says so right in the comments on youtube with an explanation of this being the product of some students in a video class.

If tomorrow you could remove worldwide all guns and weapons with birds in their names 100,000 more people a year get to live.

If thats not a reason to hate ornithology, what is?

Trousers animals are much stronger than humans...a 125 leopard can carry a 200 lb carcass 75 feet up a tree at a 90 degree angle...chimpanzees are like 4 tines as strong as us...not sure how much golden's. Weigh..but have seen YouTube vids where they pick up mountain goats and drop them off a cliff.

Can you imagine rock climbing and those Eagles start swooping to pull you off the cliff. I can't imagine a more terrifying experience. LOL. That would be STRESS.

There is no way a 13 pound bird can fly away with a 39 pound animal.
