Can eagles be dangerous?

9 years ago, a mysterious video called « Golden Eagle snatches kid » went viral on Youtube. This film shows what appears to be a golden eagle grabbing a kid by the shoulders and dropping it a few meters away before taking flight. The video got more than 5 million views in a single day (Boyle, 2012) and is now peaking at 46 million views. Despite the popularity, the film quickly drawed suspicion and people quickly started doubting its truth.
