Six million years ago, Argentavis magnificens was one of the most terrifying creatures in the sky. This predator was 12 feet long and had a wingspan around 23 feet. The bird was about the size of a biplane but weighed much less: around 160 pounds or an adult man's average weight. Thanks to its powerful, large beak, Argentavis magnificens could swallow a rabbit whole. Now the largest bird is the Andean Condor. They reach 33 pounds, about the weight of a small dog, and a wingspan of 10 feet, which is more than the height of any player in the NBA. Fortunately, these birds are vultures – they feed on carrion and don't attack live animals. But what if we lived in a world where all birds were the size of planes? Imagine you're somewhere in Africa. You're riding in a jeep in a hot valley with friends. The vehicle passes a group of lions, hyenas, and giraffes, and then you stop near some elephants. Suddenly, the elephants panic, raise their trunks, and scream. In the sky, you see a strange plane. The elephants run away. The plane is approaching, and you realize that it's not a plane at all, but a massive bird of prey. It's bigger than a business jet but smaller than a Boeing… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
