WOW That was a bit heart stopping, good job he had the skill to get down safely, and great credit to him for bothering to try to help the Eagle
Thanks LW

It really is an amazing piece of footage and yes thankfully he was experienced enough to land and be ok and such a great relief that he was good enough to ensure the eagle was ok, he was pretty tangled in the parachutte lines and it could have been a dreadful outcome.
