A photographer got a surprise when his drone was suddenly stolen mid-flight -- by none other than an eagle.
However, as Culbertson was soaring his drone over the rock structures, an eagle suddenly snatched the photographer’s aircraft as it was flying mid-air.
Then, seemingly out of nowhere, the corner of an eagle’s wing is seen in the footage. The eagle’s head, beak, wings, and belly suddenly come into the shot as the bird grabs the drone out of the sky. The eagle snatches the aircraft for itself and flies away with it.On Instagram, Culbertson said that he filmed the footage from onboard the VR googles that he was using to pilot the drone.
“Luckily these drones shut off their propellers as soon as they detect an impact, so the eagle was not harmed.” , Culbertson seemed to suggest that he searched for the drone but he was unable to find the aircraft.
