a Johnson thank you for watching
0:11
another edition of surfing apocalypse I
0:16
I do I just like that name surfing the
0:18
apocalypse so we're also those servers
0:20
in that sense today I just want to talk
0:24
really quick about Eagles especially
0:27
French Eagles not bald eagles but their
0:30
relatives their cousins same family you
0:33
know like a bushbaby Bush smaller bushes
0:36
well Eagles so these are friends eagles
0:39
and according to a new story that's very
0:41
popular right now the French army is
0:45
training heels to go after drones and of
0:48
course if you're on the web and you're
0:51
on YouTube you sure have seen drone
0:53
footage that all aerial platforms with a
0:55
camera some called toys i call them a
0:57
lot of fun and I have several of them
1:01
just haven't been using as much they
1:04
could have been transitioning with a lot
1:07
of things I've been doing and I haven't
1:08
had time to devote to them but i'm going
1:10
to at any rate now what I want to talk
1:12
about it this is like one of the first
1:13
things I thought about when i saw this
1:15
story is simply what about the Eagles
1:18
okay now if you look at this photo right
1:20
here that came with the story
1:22
this is a gold medal which is a very
1:24
close cousin of the bald eagle so I want
1:25
you to think about that you know this is
1:27
like the national symbol if that makes
1:29
it any different if you have more
1:31
sympathy you know because it's the
1:34
symbol of our nation almost you know
1:36
relatives anyone so you see the golden
1:39
eagle attacking a drone and like heels
1:44
always attack with their legs out like
1:47
ok the claws spread the legs out that
1:49
you went to the attack and they come in
1:50
from above because that's just the way
1:52
the attack things they're birds they
1:54
attack things on the ground usually they
1:55
come in from above with their legs out
1:58
like that right i mean okay that's
2:01
pretty simple but what about a drone
2:03
I mean those propellers are spinning
2:04
really fast and they don't mention it in
2:06
this story but if you know anything
2:09
everything a little cheese in art hmm
2:12
you know or or a weedwacker with blades
2:15
and actually the guys from mythbusters
2:18
did a little test on that so now
2:21
interestingly they used a dead chicken
2:25
so now imagine i'm gonna show you some
2:27
pictures because if you look on google
2:29
and look at drone injuries and look at
2:31
pictures it's really nasty you get
2:35
enough that i probably can't show on
2:37
youtube and still have a family-friendly
2:39
rating so just don't go there do that
2:42
search and look you know you can look
2:44
with favor sir john it's still nasty
2:46
looking anyway so back to this so you
2:52
have to imagine how the eagle is being
2:53
that Mythbusters chicken and i'll show
2:57
hang on a second right here okay and
3:00
here's Jamie from mythbusters with a
3:03
drone arm and a camera mounted there and
3:05
this propeller spinning and here's the
3:07
dead chicken which could be the eagle
3:09
ok so just you know bird bird eagle
3:12
chicken dead in this case not been in
3:15
the other case and he's a touching the
3:18
chicken with the spinning prop blade of
3:21
the drone what happens is oh my gosh
3:25
and then he's pointing out same thing
3:27
what happened to your neck if the drone
3:30
flew into your neck you would need to
3:32
slice you up there probably kill you
3:34
so that's the thing how bad are these
3:37
trained Eagles getting injured doesn't
3:39
matter are they flying in there and
3:40
getting their legs cut off or you know
3:42
just chopped all the hell is that was a
3:44
raise for this sacrifice themselves kind
3:47
of like you know kamikaze eagles and if
3:50
that's the case as it almost must be
3:52
it's hard to imagine they can fly into
3:55
the drones and grab them without getting
3:58
injured and that being the case you're
4:03
if you're raising these birds and you
4:04
know you're going to send me into
4:06
certain probably injury that's going to
4:08
mean them forever and can take them out
4:11
of use for the purpose that you're
4:14
raising for in there a better way
4:17
I mean we have the technology to fly
4:18
these drones can't we have an equal sort
4:23
of technological way to bring them down
4:25
and the story says is usually yields
4:28
probably the safest way to bring Browns
4:30
down that they have right now but you
4:33
know safe to who have some people on the
4:36
maybe we'll what if the eagle and the
4:38
drone falls on someone's head
4:41
well we're back to this scenario at any
4:47
rate it's just a story and I think that
4:49
that is something that hasn't been
4:51
brought up within the story that should
4:53
be brought up and it's something that
4:54
should be talked about you know are we
4:56
going to do something like that in the
4:57
United States apparently other countries
4:59
are using heels to try to take down
5:01
drones and since when did drugs become a
5:04
threat that's something else to talk
5:05
about apparently in the united states i
5:07
have seen that much in that regard but
5:11
in other countries the netherlands
5:12
apparently France and probably other
5:14
countries are already seeing unmanned
5:17
aerial vehicles as a security threat and
5:20
they're treating them as that and I just
5:22
wondering how long it is before we start
5:24
doing that here and what the
5:26
consequences are going to be four drown
5:28
hobbyists and the drone industry in
5:32
anyway those are my thoughts on this and
5:34
hopefully ever is a new talking point
5:37
did that nobody has been looking at up
5:41
till now and thanks for watching and see
Today the story about the French Army training birds of prey (Eagles) to attack drones (UAVs) is making the rounds on the web. Kind of a cool "old tech vs new tech" kind of story. Until you think about it though and realize that the spinning blades of a drone can do a lot of damage to a human or animal.
In this story I raise the issue of animal safety in relation to this story and give photo examples of the damage drones can do to birds.
