    quoted for irony, plus the added bonus of getting that big pic off the page.

    Fixed your "it's", DaDa.

    I was looking for video evidence and noticed that the shadow is extremely sharper when it should be blurrier than the one of the woman. :eek: This is how I was able to tell upon closer inspection. I like how the guy also drops his video camera instead of continuing to record... :grin:

    Cowboy Bebop was a great show. I'll support you for that reason alone. **** eagles anyways though.

    That baby would have huge puncture wounds from the claws and would probably in a hospital right now if it was real. Winter clothes or no winter clothes. Talons are sharp and meant to kill. This isn't the Hobbit.

    Newspapers are so late in getting scoops it's pathetic. Reddit, clutchfans, and twitter are where you get breaking info/news.

    Yep, looked totally fake from the moment the bird was seen flying - the first series of 'flaps' was just all wrong. Plus, the circling it did was wrong as well,to me it just looked like a lazy video-game cut-scene. It was clear the hoaxers did their most serious work at the moment of the 'snatch', but still, the whole entire thing was just so off, I have a hard time believing that anyone was seriously fooled by this.

    We must pass laws to stop eagles from snatching babies. I can't believe this is not illegal. This will keep happening if we don't tighten down security and instill leash laws on babies.

    Bald eagles can weigh up to 15 lbs. and can lift half their weight.
