For the rescuer: Great work.

For the fisherman: clean up your sh*t.
@@jkoolhoven4733 notice that that guy left the wires go away, making possibly some others victims in the future...
@@nclsb142 Dude one thing at a time. The guy was busy enough trying to save the bird's life without getting injured or injuring it. He could have cleaned up the wires after the video ended.
@@MrMaKeMeDiNnEr whereas we clearly some wires flow ?
What would have cost him to just put them on the ground instead of in the steam ? What a huge effort that would have been 🙄
Hat's off to the rescuer, his hands are shaking, he may be scared, but still he helped. Awesome, God bless you with loads of happiness and healthy life 🙂
could be nerves, i would shake also,
but it could also be low sugar or diabetes or even a Parkinsons type health issue.
god doesn't exist, dude
@@jazolobo he doesn’t have to, it’s a belief system, archetype and a social/psychological self help strategy.
In this context it’s simply an earnest expression of how much admiration they have for the deeds of mortal man, and that’s all that’s really relevant to the comment thread.
The placebo effect is real and shared delusions have created positive as well as negative effects on humanity, so why crap on their ideals just because you don’t believe?
Personally I’m agnostic towards all belief, IDGAF about any of them as long as they DGAF about me.
I’m atheist towards the institutional and powerful side of religious ‘corporate’ organisations as they are easily corrupted by the sins their own religion warns them about.
God is just the manifestation of worshippers ideals, a clue to see the character they hope to aspire to.
Rather than just opposing their whole system, perhaps it’s more beneficial to provide constructive criticism about the actual results of their actions?
The problem I see with modern Christianity is that many groups seem to be confused about Jesus’s actual position on things like migrants, bankers, the wealthy and generally how we should treat each other.
It’s the same as politics.
The leaders are not representing the interests of the people, and division is creating profit for both groups.
We are only humans, and if some need the aspirations of the celestial to be better people, why would you bother to stand in their way?
I’m a cheerful nihilist, and I know not everyone’s comfortable with my world view, so I let them enjoy their own.
Live and let live, different strokes for different blokes.
The diversity of human opinion is so broad that there is always room for ignorance about others, and we respond emotionally more than with our reason.
@@HappyHands. I would put my money on nerves that was a bird of prey not a parrot a bite from 1 of then could take a finger off. His a braver man that for sure.. I won't lie I would of rang the local ranger
Lol. How stupid and naive you are. He is Russian heavy drinker. He speaks Russian and is a thing called delirium. When you drink a lot long time..your hands start to shaking that way. I saw few people with souch thing when I cooperated with rehab center.
No fighting. No biting. He knows he's being helped. Bless him and the big-hearted rescuer. 😊❤
The only animal on earth that could have freed that hawk. That’s a good use of the human skill set.
@@MrJamberee Absolutely! That's what the role of the Human species is; to help as much as we could, and to avoid harming other fellow beings the best ways we can.
@@tnator3542 have you ever read a history book?
@@philkonestos2837 Yes, I have. And history is a truth according to the people who wrote it. Have you?
@@tnator3542 I mean our role SHOULD be what you said.
But history doesn't support that fact.
This fellow was so nervous and shaking, knowing he was in danger, and did it anyway.
THAT is courage, folks.
I hope this man receives all the good blessings the universe can send his way. ♥
100%
This
I noticed he was nervous too! And he did it anyway. Everything you said 100% 🙏🏽
I would’ve been shaking too!
I don't really think he was in danger, I think he was more cold than anything. I mean, besides getting a few scratches, whats there to be afraid of in a hawk?
The hawk was better behaved than my son having his toe nails clipped... incredible animal
Lol 😂
I don’t blame your son. When my parents tried cutting my toenails it was the most painful thing ever. They’d clip wayyyy to deep
Excuse me? I never got my toenails clipped as a kid.
@@anonomuse9094 lol
@@Nick-fi1mc well we got a variety of childhoods if nothing else, one who was left to grow feral and one who had his/her toes clipped to the bone... you meet all sorts on YT
This guy was shaking, it took courage to get that close to a powerful beak and talons, well done whoever you are.
Yes cause of our fear and I mean the animal being afraid could want to attack you soon as it's free. So that's a good animal too for understanding.
Seriously That took guts It’s a damn shame that man has left so much trash in the wild We leave tons of plastic to millions of feet of fishing lines, nets, strings, etc Animals inadvertently get caught in lines & unwittingly ensnared that can lead to cruel & prolonged painful deaths. Hats off to this guy. Somehow that wild bird sensed he wasn’t a threat & was helping him. He wasn’t wearing any gloves or anything. Gloves would have made the work that much harder though. That hawk was literally really tied up in some lines. That hawks talons & beak are no freaking joke. It is nice seeing someone do such a brave gesture to an animal in a difficult situation. Without him he might have hurt itself trying to get free or would have starved to death since it was ensnared by those lines. Good stuff.
They rarely go after you with their beak, even in such a situation, but the talons are very scary indeed!
Most birds of prey don't go out of their way to pick fights or be aggressive and they would much rather fly away than attack, I hope this one survived after all his hard work! What a hero
@@KenjiMapes Agree, But it was an Osprey.
Man is responsible for disastrous life ending results for thousands of wild animals, sea life & birds each year.
Truly disgusting.
Why was this guy filming with a head mounted camera in the area is what I want to know.
The guy's hands shook like crazy, but he kept at it and didn't worry about getting close to harms way... Wonderful and a privilege to watch!
I would've been terrified as well. Just look at that beak and talons, it could've torn his hands clean to the bone but it clearly understood it was being helped. Imagine the satisfaction afterwards of having freed such a magnificent creature.
@Roman what are you basing that speculation on?
@@RandoLePerson have to agree.
I think he was just an old guy with shaky hands like me.
@@JC130676 amen.. this is a very special human, right here..
This is a good man. And that is a thankful Hawk.
I am so moved by this man's kindness. He risked his own safety (those talons) to free this poor hawk. I'm so impressed.
Agree. At the same time it felt like the Hawk knew what was going on.
im moved by my legs
That hawk knew the man was helping him...or her. It was being very docile and cooperative. I wish people would be more careful and considerate with their fishing line...for this very reason. That hawk would've died if this man didn't come along 🤦
Very minimal risk. I'd be willing to suffer some fairly deep scars to help an animal in distress.
It's just how I roll. Scratches and cuts heal, death does not.
gave a Goose Bumps rush of Good Feelings.
Not only does this guy have a heart of gold, he's got balls of steel as well.
Damnit you beat me to it
How so?
@@Neo2266. I was literally going to make the same post.
@@Neo2266. a bite of that eagle's beak can take a big chunk of your finger
@@meurer13daniel That would make for a very stupid eagle in this instance, I wouldn’t even think of that until it bit me I guess
You can see in his trembling hands that he knows the danger and risk he’s taking. What a hero.
Or maybe his trembling is a result of a medical condition
@@foltzenlogel
Or it’s cold or fiddly.
I thought he worked fast and calmly. He wants to rid of all the line before the bird flew off half done…he’s working efficiently.
Yah looks like he got a pretty HIGH dose of adrenaline from the looks of those hands
When hard working aging men try to steady their hands they shake like that. He was worried, but not for himself. He didn’t want to hurt the bird. You can see his trembling increase when his blade nears the birds legs. He was very concerned and delicate. Good man.
You're so easily impressed. It never strikes you as convenient when all these good deeds are done there's camera ready and in perfect position?
To the fellow who saved this beautiful bird - thank you!
This dear brave guy is telling the bird "Don't be afraid" while shaking his way through an amazing rescue.
I woukd be afraid of getting the business end of those talons too.
What language?
@@RabbiRKarpov he was speaking Russian
All he kept saying in the video was
"Calm down, don't worry" and that kind of stuff
@@alikhanmagomedaliev5500 Sounded like Russian but I wanted to make sure. Thank you
Well done, God bless you 🙏
Shaking like a leaf and still accomplished his mission. The definition of bravery.
Yes this was a beautiful sight and it ended well. 🙏
correct - -the man could have been hurt and I am sure he didn't want to injure the hawk.
Or maybe he was shaking because of adrenaline... Not because he was scared but excited...
@@masc2fighter makes more sense
С похмелья
A real-life hero. The poor bird couldn't let its guard down but, it’s still thankful.
it actually did, let its guard down. At no time did I see the Hawk try to bite or thrash around. The Hawk was near death, probably because it hadn't eaten and they must eat, on a schedule (Please put food out for the birds, and our critter friends during winter months!) God Bless You - you are a friend of nature!
@@prestonburton8504 yeah, I was surprised to see it fly away right away, hopefully he/she is still alive
The osprey is so stressed he complies. My kestrel once drifted away from home on a thermal and behaved like a budgie when I found her. Soon got her mojo back in a day or two!
He was like “dude, help me out, I’ll stay still”. Did expect him to hang around a bit but he took off right away.
@@prestonburton8504
I got yelled at for feeding the birds in the park by a white woman ! She yells at me you are adding to the world's bird population explosion !! They don't need your help for they can feed themselves ! Not in March when the ground is still hard they can't get at the seeds, I replied. 🙄
Wow! That poor bird must've been so exhausted. He was so calm. I'm glad that kind man helped him. ❤
I think so too. The hawk was so completely worn out. But still a great act by the rescuer.
while dooming only God knows how many other small birds to being eaten by this fella 😂
@@83KJackosprey's diet is almost entirely fish
To see how it struggled and almost wasn't able to keep it's entire bodyweight in the air for a few seconds is tough. Poor thing. If it weren't for man- made (non- degradable) substances and products the animal would have been fine...
I hate people who just leave random fishing lines or their trash, lying around at lake sites and shores, after they've finished hurting the fish and throwing them back into the water, bleeding from their gills, scales and/or mouth....
Almost 😅
I love how the hawk put his trust in the guy. Didn't once try and attack. Hats off to the guy, he saved a life right there.
Yeah i was expecting it to bite him and it could have a few times but it chose not to.
He surely has been struggling for hours to free himself, tired and hungry, doesn't have the energy to fight
@@adolfopross7269 That is what I was going to say.
@@adolfopross7269 Possibly also realized the guy was no threat. Animals can tell.
Big part could be total exhaustion. It has probably been flailing for hours before that.
A hero isn't unafraid. He faced it and did the right thing despite his fear and real danger. Bravo!
Yep he was shaking as if he was diffusing a live bomb
Those talons!!! And beak!!
@@shubhamdixit9658 I was watching that. terrified but moving forward. this is the way.

And praise to GOD for putting him there to do it.
@@bl6747 Please shut up
@@grotty9850 Praise the LORD
@@bl6747 So god put the hawk in there and left it to the human to decide whether to help, or not? Is this your interpretation?
@@nicosoftnt relax
The young osprey seemed to know you were there to help and not harm. Beautiful to see. Thanks for sharing👍
He had accepted his fate till he saw his hero. The look In his eyes said it all. Awesome.
I wish it were so, but it's more likely that the bird was just weak from hunger and could do nothing but try to look big and scary. Notice how it never pulled it's wings in?
@@thehulk86 are you a bird expert?
@@thehulk86 Flying raptors down in places of water always spread their wings for the sole reason of trying to float. If they fold their wings, their weight centers into their torso and they sink. Then after getting out, they keep their wings spread for long periods of time (depending on how wet their feathers are and how exhausted they are) to try and dry them out so they can fly again because they can't fly with wet feathers. I think this one hasn't been in the water long enough to be exhuasted and wet to a point of being unable to fly. Then again, adrenalin is a helluva drug and can make people and animals do things they shouldn't be able to.
It's exactly the same reason why humans spread their arms and legs when swimming.
Ediy: Typo
@@shawnr590 Kind of. I am a former zookeeper specializing in birds & reptiles, and studied ornithology from the late Dr. Jed Burtt, who was the president of the American Ornithologist's Union
@@B.Scruby one problem, that's an osprey. they are almost exclusively fish eaters and dive into the water all the damn time, their feathers are waterproof, as evident by the fact that it flew away immediately after being freed.
A true hero is not a man who never knows fear. It is a man who knows fear, faces it and continues onward anyway. This man is a hero, clearly scared of hurting the bird or being hurt by the bird but still persevered until he freed it. Well played sir.
Remember this the next time some naysayer tells you that rope bridge isn't save. Just face your fear and continue onward anyway. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. And so on.
APPLAUSE 👏🏻 .. so well said !!
@@jinnyridger5075 People like you are the reason it took us thousands of years to reach for and get to the stars.

Poor bird was so tangled up and would certainly have died a slow painful death.. I am so grateful to this man for helping
I wonder how long the bird had been there
@@georgeiron8399 hard to say. Hopefully the bird was okay.
He should have let the savage beast to a slow painful death. Isn't the same 'poor bird' that mercilessly kills other birds for food? It also had a nerve to fly away without even a thank you gesture. Spoilt lil brat.
My grandfather always told me to clean up loose fishing line when I found it because an animal could get tangled. To this day, I still clean any up and pack it back out with me in a bag I keep for that purpose.
@@HlubiNgwane who hurt you?
Huge round of applause to that guy! What’s also incredible is the bird didn’t try to attack him at any point. Those claws and beak - wow. 😮
The bird was probably exhausted and also quickly understood the guy was helping.
They're called talons not claws..
those talons would go all the way through his hand like a knife through butter, what a legend this rescuer... Bravo!
Fitting name you got. 👍
Hey...the man's Russian after all
@Jase Jase lol. That bot is everywhere in these videos.
Hurray for this adorable and life-saving man!
No it won't lol, you must have a pansy ass soft hands lol
That's crazy. That bird is super chillaxed. He didn't flap his wings at all until he was completely freed of the line. Nice work!
Sadly, many animals give up once they are in a position where they can't move. It's an instinctual thing and actually pretty important to the ecosystem of this planet. It's pretty common for animals to give up until they are free of the "predator" or the wire in this case, which is the "predator".
It is crazy, but it's always important that most animals can't think about this in a way that we can. BTW, whales and dolphins definitely can, so make sure you ask for legislation to help out ocean mammals.
@@bd80247 wow..
t.y. for that.. if true (?) (*not doubting you, per sé) i think that is a valuable intuitive response, IF for nothing else - that "one in a million chance, of a human with pliers coming to the rescue..
*but seriously, if more people knew about this predictable behaviors, maybe more ppl might be more proactive if they did find a vulnerable (usually a predator) animal in trouble?..
*WITH.. typo..
I expected him to peck him but he looked too tired
I was thinking that the whole time, his instint was to pull away no matter what. He had probably tried all that with all his might and knew he couldn't any more. He also knew he was being helped. He had to of. He knew in the end. I'm smiling and almost crying.
I Also wanted to say, this also proves that old saying: ' Courage is NOT a Lack of Fear, But The ability to face it and still Do what needs to be done"
Exactly friend!
Well said, suited to this man action.
HOOAH !
He must have had a massive rush of adrenaline . Good guy.
He's coming back. He will not forget the face of his hero. Animals never forget. Just a beautiful video.
I don't know if I've ever seen a more clear example of an animal being totally aware that a human is trying to save them? The eye contact and lack of aggression is incredible. This is beautiful!!!!
It was very tired
They are totally aware!! Love this!!
It was completely exhausted. Also knew that it couldn't maneuver and that rescuer is bigger. Birds generally try to avoid conflict with other species if they won't win immediately.
Wasn't that tired, it flew away.
For those saying it was just tired, where I live, I have had sick or injured animals come to the back door of my house looking for help, they seem to know. Wild animals which would usually fly away or run away at the sight of a human, sat 2 ft from me eating what I have given them
Wow. Maybe the hawk was shocky, but he sure looked like he understood he was being helped.
yeah, it's more like the hawk was surprised he was helping it.
Didn’t bite, the hawk definitely knew! He was definitely confused, and a little skittish, but he understood.
Definitely...
I would say he's seen humans alot and probably been round fisherman a fair bit cus of the food scraps they always throw out
Yeah the hawk was probably exhausted from trying to fight his own way out, but the fact that it only struggled when the man’s hand tried to go behind its head (out of its vision) and kept an eye on what was going on made me feel like there was some understanding there.
That's an osprey.
The bird was looking at the helper as if he had some idea that he was going to be freed. Thank you to the rescuer.
It's not that simple. The bird knew that this guy cutting the strings would change the situation up for it. So the bird gets sort of hopeful that "if this humans just let's go a little bit I can escape" the bird didn't In any sense see the guy as a rescuer. I work with birds, I put rings on them. They always panic even if you are helping them. Best way to calm a bird is by darkening its eyes, with a bag with airflow or something
@@laeronym5884 such a shame we can't communicate with animals. Would make things easier for both sides 😅
So amazing that the hawk didn’t once try to attack his rescuer’s hands with his beak. This was a great video to watch and I send great respect, from here in England, to those involved in helping that beautiful bird.
@@Bethi4WFH that's what I'm wondering like why didn't the bird attack gotta have some sort of brain
Considering the damage they can do with their talons and beak, I'm blown away by how calm the hawk was! It's amazing how animals can tell you're there to help!
I bet this 3 minutes felt like a lifetime to the BOTH of them.
For me too
1kg
Even me bro
It felt for me
Watching it feels like a lifetime
Seeing the hawk noticing a possible rescue, tell us that animals pay more attention to us human than we realize. Glad, to see the hawk set free
Most animals, especially wild, go into straight panic-mode when they're hurt or trapped, or stuck. Because they know to any other, they're an easy meal. Crazy how tis Hawk must've known he was going to getting helped, rather than eaten.
Indeed. To see an animal that has no social skills by nature show trust and understanding of the situation is just beautiful. Just another one of Gods inbuilt miracles.
@@geeetube1not a miracle, just science
@@notalex8003 go live back under your rock. It’s a miracle bud.
@@notalex8003 pffffft. Theres always a Debby Downer like you around the corner.
And your uneducated comment couldnt be further from the truth. The science as you put it, or psychology of a wild animal of prey, is to NEVER be touched or approached unless hand reared or fed. That is their nature and defense mechanism.
Id love to see you try and free a trapped lion, or crocodile, or even a tiny piranha fish. Those talons could have literally torn his hands to shreds but the bird co-operated in a way totally against its nature (or science) as you claim.
And the bird never struggled, seemed to know he was being helped. Bless that human.
I had to watch it again to double check that, it amazed me. Like he knew ... the best moment of today :))
Yeah that Osprey was up for anything that would get it out of the fishing line
He was probably too exhausted
The hawk looked like he gave up until this kind person freed him. Thank you.
His hands are shivering but he took the risk to free a wild attacking bird. Salute you
Fear and excitement no doubt
Maybe he was too cold
@@emmaa427 I guess not, its nice sunny day and he is not wearing any cold gloves. I can imagine his situation if it would be me ,I might be feeling fear more than him. One bite of wind predator bird and you got to rush hospital for stitches.
Maybe he has parkensons
Without gloves too
So refreshing to see that there are still kind souls roaming the earth.
What, did you think that YOU were the only one? Remind yourself every day that most people are basically decent. Almost all, in fact. Usually, we only hear about the ones who are not, because they make headlines or get viewers. Decent people who mind their own business and do the right thing are on no one's radar, and that's why we must remind ourselves.

What a stupid comment. Just like all the others.

I can’t believe how calm the hawk remained throughout the entire rescue!
Yes, just as if it understood what was happening.
@Information Act ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@Information Act raptor not fowl.
Yeah. I wish my dog would remain that calm when I clip her nails. 😁
probably exhausted and/or in shock.
I like how you can clearly see the guy shaking, completely aware of the fact the hawk could severly harm him if he wanted to and yet determined to risk his own safety to rescue it.
Judging by the way the hawk took off immediately with no trouble it's clear he wasn't dazed or disoriented, which makes it even more remarkable that he didn't once struggle or attack his rescuer. Amazing!
Birds of prey are so intelligent! He definitely knew he was being helped!🥰
It is an osprey, not a hawk.
They are somewhat related, but have unique adaptations for catching fish (their toes have tiny spines at the bottom to grab slippery prey, and each foot has two toes on each side).
Many adults likely have a nest and chicks, so saving this adult possibly saved his/her offspring as well.
@@tamsintarshish3905 Only in america... and that doesn't make it a hawk, they are in a different family to hawks, so that name is wrong anyway.
@@johnh.mcsaxx3637 the common name for an Osprey is "Sea Hawk." So whereas you're definitely correct. In the commonality sense, the OP is also correct.
@@bradleywoods3742 I assume you're referring to the name.."Sea Hawk." In which case you're just being argumentative for no reason. I'm 99.99% sure you dont correct people when they say "Panda Bear" or "Whale Shark".

That "Hero" is one of that Guys who make Money with The pain from animals.
It ist Just Fake... I Hope thay will Block His Channel
Animals know. I've been in the woods and had all sorts of interesting meetings.
@ Deer are awesome. I may have had one, once. ;) I'm the guy that stops the car and helps the turtle across the road. Lol
Maybe it was tired from struggling before.
@@1988Beeni could you tell us more?? Im new on this channel and I dont wanna support diguised animal abuse
I think majority would agree that the hawk understood he was being rescued. He could have used his talons or beak at any time. Well done rescuers
Count me in the minority then. Their instinct is not to attack humans with beak and claw, but to flee, which it tried to do. Animal clearly was in shock from trauma of hours of struggling.
It may have been in this situation for a couple of hours and too exhausted keeping as much of itself out of the water as it could to fight back in any meaningful way by the time the human came along. Since its condition improved from there, it decided to play along and save its strength until it got a chance to escape.
I think that hawk watched firemen resue someone wit the Jaws of Life and recognized this fireman's uniform and thought, I better be quiet and polite or they'll bring out that noisy thing to free me. Hawks are known to have the highest IQ of something else, but I can't remember what. Maybe it was lake trout. Or sardines. Take your pick.
Agreed
It was an Osprey.
Big time fishermen.
No doubt would have died w/o the guys help.
So cool to watch. That bird knew the man was there to help not harm.
I love this video. They're both scared, but also both make the choice to trust the other...it's awesome to watch.
💕💕💕 this rings true for humans
What a beautiful way to summarise this video!
I was surprised by how calm the hawk was. Usually a bird will hurt itself by flapping its wings.
I couldn't of said that better
@@milamil9297 Пьет, водку. Это чисто водочный тремор.
The fact it was calm and didn't attack means it was exhausted and desperate for help. Good job.
Many instances animals stay calm as you untangle them from gruesome traps. By divine reason, rescuers are remembered by Animal
kingdom.
Must have been there for a while
As Sandy Lim said, animals KNOW when you are helping them. And they DO remember those who’ve helped them!
@@amy3458 Sometimes they will rip you apart too.
@@amy3458 Yeah they don't always know lol
This hawk doesn't even get bother by him or attack him, like this hawk knows he is in the right hands, big love and big respect for the dude who saved this hawk❤️❤️❤️👍
The hawk was scared, and didn't know what to do. Some animals know ehen they are veing helped, but that bird was scared.
The Osprey is in shock and if you watch closely, the bird laces into the man's palm and he has to pry the talons out. Bless him for taking the tie to save the bird.
@@westcoastfalconry it is indeed an osprey and not a hawk... they prey on and eat fish primarily

@@tijluilenspiegel I believe they don't have full control on that, they close automatically while hunting
I never would have believed in a million years that a hawk would stay completely calm during an interaction like that. On a side note, saving that hawks life that must have been the most rewarding feeling for that guy. Glad I saw this
It's an osprey
It was probably tangled for at least a couple of days. Any reasonably intelligent animal in that state will cooperate.
Birdie is exhausted af. Of course it stays calm then.
I expected a bleeding hand
I think the hawl might be very exhausted and maybe struggled vor more than a whole day and finally gave up and then this human showed up
I wish there were more people in the world like this man here. Hats off to you sir.

Not always negative. Sometimes you lose lines in water and cannot get them back even if you have scuba gear rite there. There's more plastic in the oceans from fishing than textile industries for crying out loud. Just think about that.
I wonder if he cleaned up the fishing line and disposed it?
@@danecowan3062 The greater message is that this is the damage any plastic line in water can do. Instead of trying to cover up for our sad human existence, we should be demanding that the fishing industry in general create reliable biodegradable line.
Sadly there are some evil specimens amongst us that just don't care for wild life 🇨🇭.

Kindness is a gift anyone can give, do you have any pets at home friend?
Well said 👍
And the price of cheese is skyrocketing
Nice work and act of kindness!
I've also heard: Courage is bravery that has said its prayers.
Thanks for saving the life of this magnificent bird.
It's not really a hawk, it's an Osprey, and their main source of food is fish, which would explain how it got caught in the net. Props to both the man and the bird for making the best out of an stressful situation! Beautiful man and beautiful bird!
Aren’t ospreys also called sea hawks?
@@rexwrecks5227 yeah but honey badgers are called honey badgers but aren't actually badgers.
@@skiddadleskidoodle4585 touché
@@rexwrecks5227 they are also called fish eagles, river hawk and fish hawk.
@@rexwrecks5227 it’s an osprey… isn’t a hawk. Americans call everything hawks though. Hawks should realistically be birds like goshawks and sparrowhawks rather then all the birds of prey under the sun.
You can see the adrenaline & fear of this man's bare hands while cutting him free. Complete bravery & love right there ❤
Yeah that hawk could have messed him up if it was scared enough. Luckily it understood he was helping it. Not all animals do.
I think its because he's old
You see the size of those talons? Can slice his wrist up and he could bleed out! "Do chick- er, hawks have large talons?" - Napoleon Dynamite
I think the man has parkinson's disease.
I had to repeat to myself "this is the dodo, it's can't end badly, Right?!!"
Whoever cut the bird free was brave without a glove. But it shows they would rather be bitten and save a life. Absolute 💯% Angel.
Being bitten would have been fine. But these talons are insane. They can easily spear right through your hand. And these birds have incredibly strong muscles in their feet, making it very, very difficult to get out of their grip.
For the rescuer: Thank you!
For the Hawk: You are amazing. Fly free!
For the human who caused this:
🔥😡
This man is a HERO! The hawk knew that the man was helping him and he waited patiently. Beautiful story ❤
It sure looks like it! Like he/she was getting a manicure!🙂
@@scottshepard36629
Beautiful to witness the trust connection of the two.
@@dw309 It was gripping very tightly with its claws at one point. Somehow I agree with your perspective AND the view that ‘the free-ing’ required a certain amount of trust. If the bird had no energy to struggle and was in shock, how did it have the energy and wherewithal to immediately fly away? No hesitation for lack of energy OR to stop and say thanks!
@@dw309 it may have been in shock but it could've very easily have defended it and did some damage to that man with it's beak. I've seen so many videos of animals that normally would run from humans that either come up to get help or sit very calm and patiently while they are being rescued. I fully believe that bird knew that he was being helped and stayed very calm. I don't understand how it got that entangled though.
The fact the bird didn't attack him at first was amazing, it was like if it could feel he was going to help it.
The bird knew it was stuck regardless, I think it recognized that it’s no benefit to an attacker to remove restraint, thus it calmed and allowed the work to be done.
I think all animals recognize humans as nitpickers. Monkeys like us like to pet and groom other animals. On some level this hawk was like oh this guy is just trying to get the stuff off of me that's cool
More likely that it was extremely exhausted and hopeless. No like it had any choice than to sit there.
@@eliasvonbrille I think the same. It was so exhausted that wasn't able to defend itself. That's why I got surprised when it fly away.
@@arthurjeremypearson other animals are never like that when you're trying to clearly help...it's just animals' instincts especially if you're prey. Doesn't matter is my point
He could have lost his hand for this but he still cut the wires scared shitless.
HUGE BALLS on this beautiful man !
The size of those talons is Yuge! Should wear gloves next time before engaging in any act of rescue. They say love hurts. Definitely without protective gear.
@@sztypettto that dude looked like he was out fishing or hunting. I doubt he brought gloves. Probably was fishing.... based on the pocket knife, camo...area..plus he was speaking Russian I think. Fishing is a popular hobby for men in Russia. My best guess and 2 cents :P
@@yevro1894 - now that you mentioned him speaking Russian, I noticed his name on the top left. Good observation. Then again, fishing without fishing gloves? As someone who's done fishing with my Father, to say a fishing line cuts really bad is an understatement. Also, I don't expect everything that I catch will turn out to be a fish. In most cases, it's wrestling with the nature on who is your meal. When you do catch a fish, its scales and tiny fins can really cut up your hand. I know Chad men like Putin fish in the river stream topless, while riding on the back of a bear. But I'll just stick with how my Father and other fishing pros have taught me.
@@sztypettto if you don't fish topless and on the back of a bear, what's even the point?
I don't mean to be rude but I know a lot of people who fish and around where I live you also see a lot of people fishing and no one ever wore gloves. No one.
The look in that beautiful bird's eyes! He knew the man was helping. So beautiful 🙏🏻💕
So proud of this human being. Kindness is abundant with him.
Yes it is. 100 years from now, his legacy will be one of kindness. His life is meaningful.
What he did here will resonate throughout the world.
@@franksmith7247 спасибо
Hawks are extremely smart. Hats off to this mans soul. This world needs many more like him.
The hawk did not hurt him so it was also assuming that this guy was a helper and not a hunter. So I have to agree with you that it is smart and avoided panicking and attacking the savior.
Absolutely ❤️❤️❤️
Osprey..
People always say this, but honestly people aren't so bad. Most people would be obliged to help a bird stuck like that, or at least find someone else who was comfortable helping.
Most people would do this or call someone who would. The world is full of people like him. Maybe not in big cities where the vast majority of human scum lives
That's an osprey, but that's a good man, we need more people like this
It was first described by Linneo as "Falco haliætus", hence the "falcon", thus "hawk" in English which is most common referred by people. Later, it was given its own genus Pandion keeping the species intact as haliætus.
Theres always a smarter fish in the water lol
it became more and more relaxed as the man continued to cut it free. It knew it was safe and in good hands! So beautiful.
The action of this man shows peace and freedom. My total respect for him.
@@thisisntmyrealname he didnt cause the death of the hawk's prey, the hawk caused that.
No it doesn't. It shows what every decent human should show, help and compassion. We make the mistake of putting these actions on a pedestal instead of rejecting the fact that the opposite is our human nature and that many, if not most, would not show this compassion and help the poor animal. I would expect everyone to do what he did and those that didn't should be called out as the annomaly.
@@lemonjellies4985 making the world a better place by arguing we shouldnt give positive recognition?
@@thisisntmyrealname The hawk could have been keeping the ecosystem running as it should.
Monsieur Bouc
The beauty of his flying away was his gift to his rescuer..great job.
The sound of freedom my brother.
@@PAFloridian ikr🙄
Listen that fool about "his gift to the rescuer" 😂That bird was fatigued so freedom felt good
A brave man making this world a better place saving a helpless bird that could have injured him so easily is a great deed
Yeah, not even gloves! :O
Yah people are scared to get bitten but those talons looked like a nasty cut if you scared it.
Brave man i would have move it from water put my jacket on its head and worked on it 🦥.
@@florkfork "But those Talons looked like a nasty cut" comprehension my friend.
Such an awesome rescue!!! Thank you so much for rescuing this angel! Don't anyone tell me that animals can't understand compassion shown to them! This hawk realized she was being helped and rescued! You could see it by her demeanor, and on her face. She was thankful!!!😊
Videos like this one are so heartwarming. The bird didn't try to attack him, just patiently waited for the man to free him
Yeah to me that’s the incredible bit, the poor bird must have been stressed as hell but he wasn’t flapping or trying to escape. Great work by both of them
Exhausted after progressively losing more and more inthe fight against the fishing line
They so are 😃
Amazing to think that this bird could have lashed out at him at anytime from pain or fear and he didn’t. ❤️❤️❤️
I always find it amazing when animals know we are there to help even though they fear us by instinct. Way to be there in the right moment to help that bird, you rock!
I was thinking he would have gotten the bird only partially free before it struggled to escape. I'm impressed he got it all done on the first try.
God only knows how long that poor Hawk was there. So sad. Congrats to the rescuer! Job well done!
The bravery of the rescuer doing this with bare hands is stunning - and the bravery of the hawk choosing not to tear him to shreds is also stunning. These two should be bros and go on adventures together
You are a hero!
What a great comment!
What a lovely thought to imagine them pairing up and going on adventures. Love the idea!
Yea it’s truly remarkable. Both the human and the osprey showed a lot of courage and trust.
Wild animals,birds and fish.....understand help from humans,they understand a kind soul.
@@mommom6637 no they don't 🤦♂️ I've watched these birds for decades and that osprey was exhausted from trying to free itself for possibly hours. If it had any energy left the guy (brave indeed) would've been mangled. The beak alone can break bones and tear flesh with extraordinary efficiency, the talons have vice-like strength in the digits and the claws speak for themselves.
Just shows the intelligence of animals. Hawk knows the man is trying to help. Pretty amazing on both animal and human accounts.
Exactly right.
The Osprey probably had previous human contact or was just weakened by the cold water. Usually wild raptors don't trust humans at all...
birds in a shock state - you guys are putting alot of human emotion into that bird - the man is very brave and deserves praise - this emotional shift away from logic is not good other ppl will try to do what they see here and will be horribly fuckin maimed.... your literaly fucking with reality
Courage isn't a measure of fearlessness - it's about being scared to death of something but still pressing onwards, digging down deep and finding the resolve to do the right thing.
One of the most truest statements I have ever head!
@@SwedishBroManDude Correct, they would be fearless. Courage is literally the ability to overcome one's fear
At times this man was cutting the line against the hawks feet. Despite his shaking he trusted his familiarity and skill with his blade, and no doubt knew he may cause minor injury to the hawk. But he persisted, despite his nerves, despite those talons and that beak. He weighed the possibilities and set this lovely animal free. And the hawk! Such patience, right at the bleeding edge of trust between species. So happy I saw this video today, I needed it.
It's really great how many animals know when a person is trying to help them.
The hawk didn't try to bite the guy even once.
dont mean to sound rude but animals dont really know stuff like that, im pretty sure the only reason he didn't bite him was cause the hawk looked exhausted.
@@bananafone1414 Sorry to disagree but my personal, real life experience rescuing animals says otherwise.
@@jinxfarque ok
And he kept those great big talons totally closed most of the time. Those are its main weapon. That had to be an intentional communication of passive body language.
Eagles so beautiful..must be a baby.. acknowledged the help and had Patience..god bless wild life and the rescuer..
This guy is fearless, look at those claws, the beak, the guy never flinched just got to work freeing the bird.
Oh, not fearless by a long shot. You can see his hands shaking from adrenaline the whole time. I think that makes it even more admirable, tho. He was scared as hell, but didn't let that stop him from doing the compassionate thing.
@@guyshafor1320 some people just have shaky hands.
@@guyshafor1320 some people just have shaky hands.
@@cplcabs He also sounds short of breath, which says adrenaline rush to me. Would you rather he not be nervous at all?
He was shaking, and adrenaline filled, and yet gentile throughout.
As a fisherman, this really chaff’s my hide when others throw line around like it has no impact. I can’t imagine how many other creatures were not so lucky 🍀 God bless
Thank you for understanding how discarded fishing line can injure and kill birds, sea mammals, sea turtles and more. You're awesome and kind hearted 😊
It's been a huge problem. I was a fisherman for a while, and I never left it around. I was sure to take it with me, or throw it out.
Never should happen - line is *never* to be left behind. When you're raised right as a fisherman, and outdoorsman, you leave every spot cleaner than you found it.
Согласен, а я вместо ножа набор такой ношу раскладной: ну там нож, пилка, плоскогубцы кусачие, отвёртка.👍
Someday if you can, have mercy towards all live animals🙏🙏🙏 for you will grow from strength to strength with your caring heart
That was a very calm osprey and a very resolute and skillful rescuer. Great job.
Im surprised it did not even try to attack him it knew he was trying to set him free really a powerful video !
Looks like it just do not know what to do because it has no enemies in nature and has no behavior patterns in situations like this
Birds and other non-human animals certainly have better perception and instincts than humans, and many things which indicate a higher intelligence. Most humans can't even tell who their real enemies are.
I found a small buck stuck in a fence many years ago and i helped get it out it was so wore out try to get free from the fence but when I did it stood there looking at me like thanks it was a crazy experience for me at that time ! But awesome I could help free it
This shows no matter who or what you are everyone needs help every now and again .
@@ThaisiaBo nope, they do fight
You saw a need; you took responsibility and saved the life of a sentient being. Well done, sir.
Ospreys are amazing animals. The ones around here "talk" to you. Whistle, and they hold a conversation with you. And the way they hit the water.....just amazing.
I recently learned that they're so widespread. I love all birds, but especially raptors. Totally amazing.
I love Ospreys, except when they take the big fish out of my backyard lake! 🤬
newport news, virginia - I have a home off the james river. YES - they talk. I've learned to banter with them and have seen the young become adults to return. Amazing creatures. Pure dinosaur in its sophistication. But even owls and especially our blue birds - they are quite charming!
Thank you! I was trying to remember the name!
@@DRPowell I live a block away from Indian River in FL and used to find half eaten fish in my front yard from the ospreys eating in the tree in yard.
That hawk was so lucky you came along. Well done Bro ❤️
Amazing how the hawk just let him help. He had to know he was being helped and not threatened. Kudos to the rescuer!
I noticed the hawk had his talons totally closed for much of that interaction. And he never opened his beak defensively.. I have to think that was the hawks way of showing pacivity to the human helper. Amazing interaction &vid!!! Well done human!!
I think they know when you’re helping them
It was also probably exhausted. But yes, also somewhat knew.
It really caught my attention how the rescuer could have been hurt by the talons and the beak of that hawk, but he still managed to free the bird without getting hurt. Good job!
This is how humans should be, “caretakers of the earth.”
@Drew Yes
Yeah unfortunately not all humans are and act that way
Agreed. These animals are here to respect and enjoy and its our duty as higher beings to uphold that and make sure they are cared for
Exactly. Besides, when we take care of nature, it will take care of us back, tenfold.
I agree
He could have been bitten but still he did it. Hats off to him. And to the little heart aswell for staying still. God bless them both
Can u get bitten by a bird. Or is it Pecked 🤔. Don't really matter. One brave man.
Thanks so much for a beautiful gesture. I think, in response, that the hawk knew it's being rescued by a kind human, therefore no aggression from it's side.
@@seanoverend7297 if it don't matter... why open your pie hole?
I wouldnt be worrying about a bite, look at those claws
They can no doubt puncture a solid hole or crater if they wanted to but the ospreys talons are as sharp as a razor blade!
Such an act of kindness, all human being should be like this.
The hawk is being so cooperative and still, it totally knows the guy is helping him or her. Wonderful to see!🥰
I noticed that too. In my opinion, animals are smarter than the bulk of humanity thinks. The only animals that I don't care about are reptiles. Especially snakes and alligators. Turdles are ok, but the former, no way.
Not a hawk though. It’s an Osprey
It don't even move its talon. Don't even felt threatened.
It was simply tired
@@OutlawzOP that's what human always think. We've grown into an apex species where we consider other animal as inferior. They're smart enough to know if people are a threat or just helping. This predator will fight until death if it can.
Everything in life is about timing. If that rescuer hadn't been at that exact time in that exact place, this beautiful bird would have died a long, horrible death. You are a hero, with an abundance of compassion. Thank you! 💖
Multiverse unlocked. One world where the dude saved the hawk, one where the dude decided to have a drink with friends and therefore led to the hawk's death.
And a rabbit would have lived.
@@erandeser5830- Rabbits bread like,,, rabbits. 🙄
They are born to be prey.
true, and if the rescuer had showed up hours earlier, the hawk would have fought him to the death. it was exhausted and had given up. and if the rescuer didn't have a camera, it would be a campfire story. beautiful timing of life.
@@Nathan_Bookwurm childish outlook
Anyone who has been close to a bird of that size knows how scary that is. Much respect to that man. Good work, you saved a life. Props to that hawk too. As soon as he realised the man was there to help he showed him the problem. That's the best video I'll watch today. Thanks.
They're frikkin dinosaur raptors!
That was demonstration of trust and respect from both beings. The man talked to him as he cut away the shackles and the hawk stayed calm and totally understood.
That is one patient bird and a brave man.
The stories this hawk will have for the family when he returns to the nest.
“And then I said to him right” if you don’t free me, watch what will happen to you….
😄🤣🤣
It would almost be like me telling someone I was abducted by aliens. They'd think I was insane.
@@ethanbox2010 hawks see humans all the time. Aliens not so much
The hawk tell his family that he got saved by one giant with biggest craw
This is the type of person who should be nominated. for annual honours. Fantastic man . My total respect. Bless him and his family.
Для такого типа людей самая большая награда - это свобода и безопасность спасенного им существа
Thanks for liking
To this man who helped and freed this poor hawk, bless you, he would never have made it without you! Thanks to you, he flew away! Wonderful!
What an experience!
Beautiful bird and thank you for rescuing it.
As a fisherman, this is why I ALWAYS make sure I don’t leave line around.
Good job sir!
Maybe they ought to post signs saying so, to remind the dummies out there to pick up theirs as well.
@@YM-zz5qq agreed...but so much lines comes floating in with the tides from open waters... who knows if that line even came from there sadly
Thank you for doing your part
Agreed! I always try to leave an area at least as good as I found it, and I always bring a sack to pick up anyone else's discarded lines or trash that I see. I want my fishing holes to stay nice for years to come!
Thank you…wish the big trawlers did what you are doing.
