Massive Golden Eagle attacking a cameraman. I don't think this is doctored, either. Got it off a reputable website.

Look how big those freaking talons are. They're massive. I lived up in remote Wyoming (well I guess 98% of WY is remote actually) for a couple of years for work and had to drive into the vast nothingness every sunrise -- and I must had seen over a hundred eagles during those years. Most of them of the Golden Eagle variety. And dude, they are indeed freaking huge.
One day I was driving into town and spotted something on top of a telephone pole from like a 200 yards away...it looked like a damn medium sized dog on top of a pole. Then I got closer and realized it was an eagle.

haha yeah dude, some of them can have wingspans of well over 1 metre+++. and really as a human we have no defence against an eagle whos going to swoop in at 40mp/h and just rip us to shreds with its talons. even when shitty little crows and normal birds swoop at humans, theres nothing we can really do. even though they can't hurt us or anything its still a bit terrifying to be swooped by birds. now imagine that while being swooped by giant ass eagles with 3 inch talons . eagles are great though. they're one of my favourite animals

Yeah I agree, they are phenomenal animals. When I saw my first wild bald eagle, it was really an amazing moment that I will never forget.

same dude! i saw two eagles fighting in mid air dude! enthralling shit to watch. one eagle was flying just above and behind the eagle it was trying to attack, and the one that was trying to get away was doing like all sharp turns and flip maneuvers and all types of evasive maneuvers to shake the other eagle. it actually seemed alot like what an airplane fight would be like. anyway this continued for a minute or so, and the lower bird couldn't shake the attacking bird. then the attacking bird went in for the kill and tried to fly down into it and grab it with its talons, and at the very last second, the bottom eagle flipped onto its back and like clawed up at the attacking eagle. i think they both got eachother. eitherway after that, the attackign eagle fucked right off and it was finished.
the other thing i will always remember is looking an eagle in the eye for the first time. you can just see how fiercely intelligent and alert they are from their eyes. they notice literally like every single movement. i wish i could have a pet eagle or something.

Dude that's awesome that you got to see that. I bet that shit was intense. And no doubt, there's something to that whole eye to eye thing. I wasn't close enough to see any in the wild like that but I've been to an animal conservation place for grizzly bears and wolves recently -- and they had a bald eagle that they were nursing back to health. I was like 4 feet away from him. They'll look you right in the eyes...shit's crazy. Kind of hypnotizing.
