The video is capturing the attention of the online community.
In the video, a man sits precariously on a tall pole, holding a fishing rod. Suddenly, he reels in and catches a bird that got snagged. He quickly removes the bird and puts it into a bag, then continues to bait his hook and fish again.
In just 2 minutes, he manages to catch two birds. The method of “bird fishing” is strikingly similar to fishing for fish swimming in the water, leaving netizens astonished.

After watching the video, many people left comments expressing their surprise:
“Oh my goodness, at first I thought it was someone on drugs sitting on a utility pole. Successful people always find their own way!”
“How strange! This is the first time I’ve heard of this method of bird fishing. It’s so light and easy!”
“This fisherman has exceptional awareness. Fishing underwater is old news; now catching birds flying in the sky is next level!”
“I only knew about pigeon hunting before, now I know there’s bird fishing too!”
“This is amazing! I might take my rod and try bird fishing for a change. Fishing for fish and dogs is old; now it’s time for bird fishing.”
However, there are also some opinions that the act of “bird fishing” at such heights is quite dangerous:
“Catching wild birds disrupts the ecological balance, and the consequences for nature can be severe.”
“Why climb up there? If the pole breaks, how many birds would be worth risking one’s health?”
Notably, some believe this could just be a staged video, as “only certain predatory birds like eagles and hawks are capable of catching prey directly in mid-air. They probably tied the bird to the hook for the young man to perform for views.”
