Not funny, but......

An eagle was fitted with a camera and released from the top of the 2,715 foot Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the world's tallest building, on Saturday, 14th March, 2016. The eagle's handler is standing among islands, buildings and people. Somehow from that altitude, the eagle actually picks out and recognizes the trainer from all of the other objects, and people. You can see it searching for its trainer. Completely invisible to a human eye and the camera, it then fold its wings and drops like a bullet straight to its trainer. What surprised the experts is how efficiently the eagle spots its trainer from that altitude. Even more impressive is how smooth its flight is with no camera shake whatsoever, even when it goes into a power dive. Here's the film.
