Travel & Culture Video: ‘Portrait Of Kazakh Eagle Hunter’ In Mongolia
Directed and filmed by | Matteo Poddie
Could ever exist a bond of respect and love between an eagle and a human?
The ancient art of eagle hunting is one of the many traditions and skills which have been maintained by the Kazakhs over the past decades. For more than two centuries, Mongolian Kazakh men have been hunting on their horses with golden eagles, trained following old traditions which are fading over time.
This Art needs the development of a deep bond between man and his eagle in order to accomplish a successful hunt.
An interview to one of the remained descendants of this minority, who tries to spread and preserve this ancient practice, through love and sense of belonging to his roots. The eagle hunting would otherwise be facing the risk of disappearing forever with the development of the modern world.
It is outstanding how these birds still play a paramount role for these people’s lives.

Hiking Video: Pulpit Rock & Preikestolen In Norway
Preikestolen, Pulpit Rock, Hiking the most Iconic landmark and views in Norway and Scandinavia. Raised 604m/1982ft from the water of Lysefjord in Ryfylke, Rogaland it is one of the most spectacular sights in Norway, if not the world.
To get to the trailhead I needed to the drive through the Ryfast tunnel, the worlds longest and deepest sub sea tunnel. I have included a 2 minute Time Warp video of the tunnel drive in the video. Filmed in 5k on GoPro Hero 9. A very different experience from backpacking in the Sierra Nevada, Sequoia Kings Canyon, Utah, Yellowstone National Park and similar in the USA, but the views and feeling in your gut will equal the feeling of looking over the edge towards Lone Pine on top of Mount Whitney or Mt Langley in California or Angels Landing in Zion National Park, Utah. Maybe even Grand Viewpoint in the Grand Canyon in Arizona. Enjoy and have a happy thanksgiving celebration!
