Vulture 'hitches ride on selfie stick' of paragliders; netizens say 'coolest thing ever'

An overwhelming video that has emerged on the internet shows a very uncanny adventure as a vulture hitches a ride on the selfie stick of two paragliders. Uploaded on Reddit by username ‘u/bsurfn2day’, the video has been termed as the ‘Thanksgiving vulture edition’. Adding on to the essence of the video, in the background we can hear the song ‘Dreams’ by Fleetwood Mac. 

Vulture gets a strange ride 

The short footage begins with the paragliders filming themselves while indulging into the adventure. As the video progresses, we see a vulture enter the frame with its wings wide open. Soon, he sits on the selfie stick with its talons curled around the stick to maintain its grip. The bird can be seen constantly moving its beak. In the middle, the vulture does lose its grip but manages to get back at it. However, towards the end of the video, it completely loses its grip and flies ahead of the paragliders.
