“Goat vs. Eagle” or “Death from above”

Planet Earth’s got nothin’ on this ridiculous Spanish video. It shows a huge golden eagle destroying a mountain goat in a 1-on-1 battle. Make sure to wait until the 5:00 mark (or skip right to it). You will not be disappointed. I still can’t tell if its real, but the sick chase music (note the ever-hilarious bassoon) and the close-up shots of the two contenders building up to the fracas are not to be missed. Thanks, Neatorama, for reminding us why they’re called “birds of prey.”

Also, if anyone speaks Spanish, please fill me in on what the narrator’s saying. I’m sure that it’s priceless.
