Once I was riding My bike Through a park and i Heard A Flapping Sound And it was a Magpie So I ditched My Bike And Ran And went into some bushes And the Maggie Wouldent Let me leave. Scary

[thestar1618]

i got trapped in a court when maggpies keeps swoping us when we were trying to get out

[ThePisceskid]

i have never been attaced by a magpie , i have had a few worning swoops but never close swoops let alone had one make contact

[ThePisceskid]

i have never had contact by a magpie or even swoped by one close only a distint swoop

[xshalashaska]

i was swooped once in my life & im 45 & now still wetting the bed over it

[sushimojo86]

It's one thing to get attack out of the blue but another tease it like you are. It is people like you that make the attacks more and more aggressive each year. My goodness you are older you should know better.

[JRLAWRENCEAVERYWILSO]

ha ha ha i feed the maggies so their my friends, but many a breakfast BBQ's have been spent watching george, Coe and thatcher attacking random runners and bike riders. funniest hangover cure ever

[craig3008]

Good. I hope the magpie does 'get you'. It's defending it's young... leave it alone. It's one thing for swooping to happen out of the blue. But quite another to deliberately tease it. Leave it alone. I hope it swoops and gets a nice chomp at you all. I know it seems like fun but really you are teasing it.

[anotherholywar]

lol i always play with magpies

[samueljack69]

dont do that

[Chealsmeyy]

did she hit it with a bat?

right i hate magpies but as if youd dilibrately try and hurt them or annoy them

[fletcherhf73]

I got attacked by the noisiest magpie ever about 2 years ago

[johnlennonwolly]

I feel sorry for the magpie more, than these people, they know who's domain they r in. They shouldn't be hassling this bird.

[SeasonsOfBlue]

Why? A magpie will hassle someone for than 1 kilometre, and not only that, they'll only strike when you're not looking, it's a pretty pathetic animal of the animal kingdom.

[Random0000001]

aw, stop teasing the poor bird

[ThInTrM]

Random0000001: Let me guess, you think eeeevul and cruel humans have no right to be flying kites in a public park?

Get real! They were minding their own business when the magpie attacked.

It's the magpie who should stop teasing those poor people, not the other way around!

[Random0000001]

oh, shutup!

i was actually saying it in a jokingly way..

& i actually thought this video was kinda funny

[ranjeev3012]

lmao

3:52

[skelterella]

lmao

[jellysam]

getting swooped just sucks i hate it i try and stay away but they always get me that clack as they fly past just scares the shit out of me

[moyno85]

I'm watching this video because I just got swooped by an asshole magpie and it cracked me in the eyelid.

[Kendalftw]

magpie only attack if ur not watching and this is sad but u getting hurt is teach u not ot walk past a nest.my friends run around with stops sign and they fly into them lol

[g3tdown]

grown people teasing the magpies.. .. thats sad..

[rocketboy156]

next time take a bb gun with you and have some fun lol

[781David]

Magpies are a protected & native Australian bird.

[Fandille]

Lol. magpies are crazy when they're nesting. Whenever your walking somewhere through trees and things you have to walk really fast or run :P

[SinisaTrkulja]

these birds arnt scared of anything..ive seen 1 at taronga zoo in Sydney at the bird show swoop a wedge tailed eagle which is like 10 times bigger...lol

[Twodaystogo]

ive seen them eat alot of birds i got atacked by about 5 of them for my food one day there really smart and know if they do tat i will drop my food and run full on atacking me

[rocketboy156]

they attack every fng ae ever things bigger than them ae

[kinghitz]

I have known of people that have required stitches after an attack. There was also the case of man in Victoria a few years ago who died as a result of being struck in the eye - because of complications.

Having said that I have a group that live around my place in Sydney which I feed that never attack people but are very hard on one another. They will not hesitate to kill an intruder from another group.

[mmaa21]

u know the funny thing is, i allways see a magpie fighting with a crow, its hilarious how much those 2 hate each other. i think its because the magpie looks better than the crow, and the crow is jealous. lol

[mmaa21]

man, magpies allways come down to my backyard and i feed them, i never get swooped, but i sure hope that wouldnt happen in the future, i can imagine how horifying it is seeing a big black bird on top of u with its wings open. what about the Crows, they do not commonly swoop ya do they?

[youssefm1]

Magpies only do it when they have a nest nearby to keep potential predators away from their young. I don't know about crows or other birds. Regards.

[SillyRandomGuy]

0:43 was funny

[jmfdrmustang]

i just got swooped by one today dec 2 2007 so the first thing that came to mi mind is duck on to my stomach and craul with my head down

[youssefm1]

Thanks for your comment. This magpie would always swoop just above your head no matter how low you ducked. But there are other magpies who are more aggressive and will actually strike you in the back of the head etc.

[jmfdrmustang]

would they kill you if you get swooped in the back of the head

[youssefm1]

Very unlikely, but I'm told that it is painful!

[jmfdrmustang]

oh i thought that if its beak hits you it would go inside the flesh

[youssefm1]

Maybe, but not inside the skull :-)

[ChadSuhan]

i hate magpie lol i have like a phobeia of them omg i dont know how you could do that

[whi0019]

why do u whant to get swooped

[youssefm1]

Just for the fun of it - it's an adrenalin rush!
