Whoever captured this footage of the dogfight in the air, is a master of his craft. And, the editing was amazing too.
This footage has become one of my favourites and the white bird is Damn beautiful while the pirate bird's are truly pirates with the ocean and the chase...it was really like a movie!
Same here
Best clip I've ever seen as a child
Same!!
Frigate birds
@@ChandraNYC 😂
pirate bird 💀
Does anyone else really appreciate the combination of great photography, natural sound of the birds and the selection of great music to heighten the action? I was on the edge of my chair watching this. I love documentaries like this --- and especially with birds.
This clip alone was more engaging than half the action films I've seen this decade.
Including Joker ?
@@ossamaalhosain8141 That's a thriller, not really an action flic. Take for example War of the Worlds, 2012, Deep Blue Sea 2, or Fast and Furious.

Man i wish a killer whale was at the surface waiting to eat the other bird.
Agreed
That is a true battle. Spectacular, because you know the winner will get the ultimate prize - food.
The winner's child will get the food.
I always thought the ultimate price is sex with a female
Even in the air there are thieves.
Nobody ruin 69 likr
We had Sea of Thieves, now prepare for Air of Thieves.
😥😢😭
Sikisplaying On land, they are politicians.
Ya know the word thief dont really fit nature, since you need to steal nutrients to live
I have rewatched this many times and its still exciting as the first time. The music, Davids commentary and of course the birds in flight chasing and trying to get away... just wow 👌🏿👌🏿
wow just incredible to watch them in the air. I love watching gulls but the Frigate is truly Magnificent.
Frigate Birds really have that nice symmetrical look; so sleek and streamlined.
Agreed! I believe that's part of why they're so good at flying, in fact. Like living jets.
This is more exciting to watch than fighter planes in a war movie. Thanks for sharing!
I wanna say MINE MINE MINE so badly
Scott Harry MINE
You did though. You said it 3 times
Yugioh Master Strategies :( you got me there smart ass
Salute to BBC cameramen who have made this nature,s rare and unique scenes visible for us.
Mother nature at her/his/its finest. Beautiful how each are built for extreme aerodynamics, as well as, their roles and responsibilities to their young.
There is no battle, this is lopsided bullying. It's like when a tough bully takes your lunch money in grade school.
2:20 - the way the thief bird caught the regurgitated fish in mid air was all that I needed to freakin give this video a like ...
Yes, This shows animals are more than what we think ...that thief bird is so aware of its surroundings that sees the moment the other bird drops the fish...also so accurate catching that fish in the air before falling to the sea
Never knew these types of birds exists before 😳 this channel is frikking amazing 👍
In my country I often see frigatebirds near the coast. They look so ominous as they silently soar along.
Ik right I luv this channel alot
Look up the courting habits of frigatebirds sometime! They're hilarious!
They reminded me of the pokemon articuno

David Attenborough's voice is soothing makes me watch the videos🔥❤
This is an amazing clip. Thank you for uploading, BBC Earth!
Seabirds are really masters of flying. 👏
Ikr
They're also able to swim, dive and walk. They are something like super species... ducks too :D
@@MAGNUMMASTER7 & waterproof^^
Naval aviators are always the best. In the animal kingdom and in the human world!
@@Ninja-iw5zp not all of the, some of the best flying ones aren't. (heck the frigate in the video isn't either)
I thought I was watching a new trailer of James Bond movie. Tbh I almost had a heart attack cheering for the bird to escape from the thief!
"Frigate Birds Have So Little Oil"
US: did somebody says oil?
🦅🦅
Frigates: 💀
Children don’t know how hard the parent has to fight to bring food back
😭😭😭
We humans Are idiots your .... your .... your .... brilliant! Did you think of that idea yourself or did someone help you.
They'll know soon enough when they become parents. Payback is so sweet.
We humans Are idiots Love it! 😂😂😂
@@ParmMohan-us6rn you´re*
Frigatebirds are waaaay bigger than they look. Seeing them do this - or really anything - in person is extremely impressive.
The Man-O-War birds with their Delta positioning of flight was such so mesmerizing. And also How they swooped in.
My heart was broken everytime when a fish taken by pirates :(
Yeah, someone shoot them with a grape shot or something...
The attack @1:55 was flawless - brings a new meaning to the term 'lunch bully'
"Lookout Maverick he's on your 6!"
They should of dubbed dangerzone over this.
I’ve learned that no matter how much life can knock you down you just gotta keep flyin🦅
Imagine a group of Olympic sprinters chasing you with the intention of robbing the baby food you just bought from a supermarket
Such an epic dogfight, fighter size vs. Bomber size...i like the white bird, she has beautiful tail...some more
Thanks to this video
Моё уважение людям,снимающим живую природу,красиво и познавательно
Those birds in flight looked like bombers in formation during WWII
The air battle of these birds seems like a reenactment of US and Japan's rivalry during the Pacific War, and what makes it more realistic is the use of thrilling background sounds.
This is a nature channel and you still try to impart politics into this?? Bruh.
@@romella_karmey Wow! R u serious? Seems like u r the one having a political perception over an imaginative comment.
@Bill of Rights lol
Tropic bird: *A6M Zero*
Frigate: *F4U Corsair*
Thats was so much better than the Air to Air dogfights in fighter jets! Homeboy was scootin outta there to avoid getting his lunch nabbed.
My neighbor came back from the bar drunk.
I'm going to shake the whiskey out of him.
If the narator is David Attenborough, a documentary will become a Legendary Nature movie..
The Commitment and hard work of parents for their children against all odds : brought out wonderfully by BBC and golden voice of Attenborough.👌👌👏🙏
He's on my six hard break left ,hard break right.... Dang I can't shake him!!
A predator prey relationship that isnt bloody. Very interesting.
It's more of a thief-victim relationship.
It's a parasitic relationship, while not hurting the host itself, it could be endangering the chick
Think about fish. Isn't it bloody or fishy?
I swear I can only watch an animal documentary if it's narrated by David Attenborough
Oh my god so beautiful birds I really like 👍
Pirates of the Caribbean. 😁
I'm like 99% sure frigatebirds has the least wingload of any bird
Frigatebirds are very agile and aerial. They can stay airborne even for months without landing. The sky is their home. They even sleep on the wing.
Pirate of the skies!
Very beautiful birds
Seabirds have such elegant wings!
Unimaginable filming.
That bird looks like a dragon with that tail
I think jet manufacturers can learn a lot from the maneuvering skills of these wonderful fliers..
Trust me, they have. F22s and Su 50s are capable of things these birds aren't, but obviously these birds are also capable of things no fighter jet is capable of
God red billed tropic birds are so beautiful .
MINE MINE MINE... ahh the bandits...
Bird is beauty of world🌏
Good reminder that the world’s creatures carry on serving despite us. 💙
Man-o-war birds : "nice catch you got there pip squeaks, gimme that !"
red-billed tropic bird : "No!, this is my all day hard work, I got family to feed"
Man-o-war birds : ":who cares, this is my territory !!, my rules !!"
government : "I found my spirit animal"
In Hawaii they are called "Iwa" birds, pronounced "Eeva", and when I was a fisherman there I watched them glide for hours without flapping their wings. Fishermen in Hawaii use them to catch Pacific Blue Marlin because the Iwa birds follow the Marlin, hoping to snag the small baitfish Marlin push to the surface when they feed. "Follow the Iwa bird, find the Blue Marlin."
The frigatebird has chicks to feed too 😐
White bird win and strong 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 fight,I'm surprised is save
வாவ் என்ன ஒரு அருமையான காட்சி ❤️❤️❤️
0:56 Stuka incoming
The most amazing video Ive ever seen. Astonishing!
Beautiful👌
Que vídeo simplesmente fantástico!! Que grandes batalhas no ar ...que metamorfoses, piruetas, razias e estratégias para fugir às aves piratas e ao inimigo...grandes voos!! As crias lindas ...fugiu o pensamento para as grandes batalhas de aviões nas suas manobras....empolgante! mesmo Sir David Attenborough!
Superb . Hope global warming and pollution dont affect them!
Frigatebirds, the REAL Pirates of the Caribbean!
Imagine if someone took this audio and reenacted it in a grocery store with humans. That would be priceless.
BBC Earth is the BEST
Stunning photography.
Tropic birds are looks magictics.
Dance of the Dragons.❤
Dragons dogfight in fire and blood will look like this.
Fly little one fly!!!!
Whoa sick footage
BBC is the best when it comes to give us nature
absolutely amazing.
When school bullies take your lunch.
Dance of the Dragons.
Shot is truly amazing
Congratulations to the one who made this scene. Amazing. 3:38
This is so awesome, they look like jets so elegant
I want to eat them plz
You actually mean, jets look like the White-tailed Tropicbird (Phaeton lepturus). Tropicbirds have been on our planet for millennial eons. Manufactured, operative jets haven't been in our world for one century.
스토리있는 약한 새들의 삶!
영상미 최고!👍
Life of weak birds with story!
Best visual beauty!
Real dogfight between F 22 Raptor vs Su 35
An arms race in the air. Frigate birds cannot win the war or else complete victory will wipe out their species. The other side has to find ways to survive the attacks. It seems both populations are thriving. Balance of nature. Beautiful video. Thanks
Makes me wonder if there were ever pterosaurs that engaged in similar behavior.
Thank you so much BBC amazing birds !
Birds are the coolest 😎
Amazing camera work 😀
I would so love to see a Tropicbird; I once saw a Great Frigatebird in the Ala Wai Canal in Honolulu.
Idk why, but I'm so obsessed with aviation. It's history, physics, and aviation in nature
breathtaking scenes thank you the best crew it felt watching like aircombat
When nature shows a better aerial dogfight scene than block buster 'Midway' did in entire movie...
Wow his tail is so pretty
3:33, this is the moment, when you put everything you have on the line, struggled, failed, tried again, improvised, improved, and finally succeeded... And all these not for yourself, but for someone you care for, for their good, a greater cause. This is the moment of enlightenment.
Thank you!
Amazing footage.
I was standing on edge focused on the "birdfight".
When the seniors at school find out that you've a pack of gum. 🌚
This video reminds me of my Manager 😂
Love the shapes of these birds!
All that fighting could have been used to actually catch a fish lol
What an excellent video 👏👏👏
Que planeta cheio das Riquezas Celestiais, natureza Maravilhosa linda muito linda, Criação de Deus
Fly bird fly!!!
When I see birds chasing each other I used to think they were just racing. In reality they fight for food and territory.
On The Wings Of A Dove 🕊 Love not war!
Best narrator ❤️❤️
