‘Golden eagle vs mountain goat’ is the most heart stopping 60 seconds you’ll watch today

In the ‘golden eagle vs mountain goat’ tally it’s fair to assume it’s the eagle that typically comes out on top.

Not on every occasion, it turns out, after watching this heart stopping video which just went viral on Reddit.

‘Mountain goat, on the verge of losing its final fight against an eagle, throws itself down the mountain in a last-ditch attempt to live,’ said baiqibeendeleted17x (you might enjoy it more with the sound off).

We need a sit down after watching that (so does the goat).

And here are just a few of the many comments it prompted.

‘It’s a brilliant strategy bc the bird will sustain much more damage than the goat because of it’s hollowed bones. After that much tumbling I’d be surprised if the bird survived.’
