GoPro: The Cape Griffons

The eighth and final of the GoPro HERO3+ Adventure Series.
Kerri Wolter and Walter Neser are a South African couple saving a species, one bird at a time. From rescuing injured birds to releasing captive bred vultures, they are an endearing duo we should all look up to.
To learn more about their efforts in Vulture Conservation, please visit www.vulpro.com
Shot almost entirely on the HD HERO3+ with supplemental archive footage from the HD HERO2.
Special thanks to Mike Raimondo for the supplemental archive footage from the HD HERO2.

[@GiuseppeAcca]

bellissimo!!! sembra di volare con lui!!!! 8-D

[@ColmanFink]

Fantastic!

[@gusto4023]

Crazy!

[@andreyfedorenko6811]

Awww... This is so nice! ;)

[@jayantavva]

These are amazing human beings. Love them! The POV flight was lots of fun to see.

[@WGBHMusic]

Shots starting @5:30... amazing. Breathtaking. Love vulture cam too.

[@legomyego1010]

Why would you want to skip the whole lead up? It's such an amazing video!

[@derdan23]

I raised a Vulture a few years back. I named him Buzz. It was by far the most fun I have had raising an animal. I am jealous of you making a living raising these birds.

[@dominicalmoradie1708]

I loved the landing at 5:53 when it raised its tail feathers before touchdown. It's like in real aircraft flying when you pull the yoke to make elevator up thus to create nose pitch up attitude before touchdown.Amazing video guys.

[@Psartz]

See we are not inventing we are just finding out and learning.

[@ozpjman95]

all these adventure series videos is so awesome! its like visually discovering a world we were limited to know about! and IM LOVING EVERY SECOND OF IT!

[@IneBraatVIDEOS]

AWASOME!

[@upperechelon3456]

Great video. Always thought the Cape Griffons were handsome birds. And eagles get all the glory.

[@Verisetti]

They are amazing birds. Thanks.

[@MrLMxD]

Amazing!! This is not a regular video about animals, this is a life experience!

[@charlestoth2220]

Wow! That is a Great Video!

[@ITALYPHOTOSERVICE]

Fantastic job!!!

[@dominicalmoradie1708]

Hope to see the next flight video focusing on the wings during landing. It will be very interesting to know if there are also feathers that goes up similar to other aircraft with spoilers to decrease their speed and break the lift.Thank you for sharing this wonderful video.

[@jjhitm1]

does the camera effect the bird's flying? or does it just not even notice it?

[@skezza_9662]

Yes Man their are quite heavy and the cameras are probably light weight models

[@supamsp]

incredible stuff!

[@rpminternet2805]

The bird with the record for the highest altitude ever is the Ruppel’s griffon vulture, which collided with a plane at 37,000 feet (that’s seven miles!) in 1975 and was unfortunately sucked into its jet engine.

[@gabrielivanescu8533]

Thank You GoPro!!!! I have no words!

[@izzicr13]

Increible video... Was!

[@Joshuatetlys]

Its like a dream to be Sponsored by GoPro! Hahahahah Would love to have one of these amazing cameras, Such an amazing piece of kit! Amazing video guys!!!!

[@niceone6739]

I would like to come back as an eagle, but I am afraid that my older brother would throw me out of the nest.

[@toptrailers9448]

So cool

[@AndresCoronadoGtz]

You should do more videos with the short documentary style, and just change the theme of the videos. The videos of the series have been awesome.

[@DennisMathias]

Fantastic. See, these cameras are for more than just 'sports and thrills'. They may help save species. But...how'd you retrieve the camera?

[@michaeldavid254]

I'm not a huge fan of vultures but this video is awesome

[@HDBam]

I just lost my GoPro3 Black Edition while skiing. Was my first day of filming with her.. So sad to see this fantastic videos

[@allenkvextreme]

[@billfreeman6859]

[@oreskec]

So sad this series is over Awesome video though ;)

[@JohnSmith-sy5up]

Just wondering what kind of harness they used in front of their chest, like the one at 0:55? It looks cool, much smaller than the official chesty.

[@gustavomattos3850]

muito bom !

[@Francis7282]

Pássaro Incrível !!!

[@JJVideography]

thank god for GoPros

[@EddieUtah]

Does anyone else think the Vultures look like Mr. Burns? Great video btw.

[@Serve75]

Wow!!!

[@theseventhsense77]

Footage like this could be useful in aerospace research and development.

[@LorenzoCiani]

AWESOME is not enough !

[@devvora08]

The side angles look like view from a window of airplane on wings

[@DebCnbfre]

Fun and WOW!!! :D

[@EADGBEKEN]

You Guy's are "A M A Z I N G"...

[@ScooobTube]

[@gabrielacamargo21]

Cool

[@Verisetti]

How high can these fly?

[@DJMixomnia]

Those are some amazing shots! How did they end up retreiving the gopro?

[@benjaminruiza]

Its "their" Vulture, at the end of the day It will come back

[@9myr]

never been to a show of birds and stuff?

[@DJMixomnia]

Benja Ruiz I see, I thought they we're releasing it into the wild.

[@This_Is_Not_My_Username]

12ga shotgun.

[@ChristoffSmit]

They end up coming back to the owner and if not, like they sometimes do, they will come back to the nest/cage. Their partners are there and probably small ones as well :-)

[@servertive]

A simple camera has transformed the way we look at things we always thought familiar... GoPro, you have outdone yourselves! Subscribe to them on KZbin to see the rest of the Amazing videos!

[@lafacultadchannel]

COOL

[@gavinfarrell414]

How would they get the camera off of it

[@gabrielacamargo21]

How do they get the gopro off? Without having the bird go wild?

[@SpAceProductions100]

How is it stuck to the bird

[@machinistbrain]

Вообще обалденно!! Аж прослезился.

[@Fastman4000]

So what now? Are they gonna make these longer videos next time with hero 4?

[@rick123433]

Good

[@TheDuke94]

So... How do they get the go pro back from the Vulture?

[@ThibaultxDxCx]

Wich font(s) are you guys using in the intro "GoPro Be a HERO" Thank you :)

[@shankaree20]

Long live Gopro

[@77Avadon77]

How do you get the camera to stay on them? is it a smaller version of the go pro?

[@SuperInfrequentable]

Ca change des acrobaties de skieurs hilares !

[@fernandatralala]

[@MirkoCarbonara]

[@stephanethomae3429]

Hello

[@luvdas7288]

don't you think this is inappropriate use of animals for advertising?

[@o3tomas]

They take more runway than 767 to take off

[@user-by3ih6rd3m]

Unbelievable

[@hearingthronestarbright7271]

the elephant was like BEGONE

[@dmitrygritsenko9681]

Как они на птицу камеру закрепили?)
