DUBAI — An eagle broke the world record on Saturday, by flying off the world’s tallest building and capturing it all on camera.
The little Imperial Eagle, named Darshan, had a camera strapped to his back and took off from the top of the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
The BBC captured it on camera, observed the crowd at the landing and posted the video above to their YouTube account.
The flight was organized by Freedom Conservation to raise awareness about endangered birds and co-existing with animals on earth.
