The clip has taken the internet by storm as several Twitter users have posted their comments.

One of the users pointed out that there is actually an activity called ‘parahawking’ where one has to paraglide with falcons. In this adventure sports, the birds are trained to ride with paragliders, the user added.

A fourth user jokingly wrote, “Pretty sure that bird was assessing snackability right there. But WHAT a moment. Awesome.”
