This lucky hare escaped fate in this heart-racing video, as a golden eagle swooped down in pursuit of dinner.

Danny Carter, 37, has been training animals and eagles since he was sixteen.

While Danny and his birds were searching for Lincolnshire in the UK, a wild rabbit got too close and nearly caught one of the eagles.

When the rabbit ran away, he turned and jumped on Danny’s eagle, as if he was doing a “crossover” in a basketball game.
