Kinda puts mans clumsy attempts at flying in perspective really doesn't it?

Here in the UK we have a kids TV show called "Deadly 60". The presenters looks at all sorts of creatures and rate them on their special skills and killing power.
This summer we took the kids along to their TV roadshow.
Part of the roadshow was held in a large open auditorium where they were flying certain birds of prey. At one point they had an owl flying less than 1ft over the heads of some blindfolded kids. The game was that the kids had to drop down into a crouch when they heard or felt the owl pass overhead. Over about 6 passes they never sensed the owl once!
RESPECT!
