Occurred on July 12, 2026 / Croatia
Info from Licensor: "The video was captured by me using a DJI Avata 2 drone in 4K 60fps with the D-Log M color profile. During an outdoor flight, a wild owl unexpectedly approached and attacked the drone operator. The footage clearly captures the owl flying toward the camera, its eyes, wings, and talons, as well as the moment of contact. Immediately afterward, control was lost and the drone fell to the ground, ending the recording.
The drone was later recovered from a rocky area and remained functional, with only damaged propellers and a lost ND filter. The original video file has been preserved in full quality. Credit: Yury Sakharchuk"
