"First, we outfitted the camera with a GPS tracking device so we could retrieve it, then we baited the camera by smearing it with mashed up frites [french fries]. The frites worked really well. Seagulls actually wanted to take it right from our hands!
Of course, we did many takes, with many different seagulls, and many excursions through Cannes tracking down the camera.
The one you see is just the best result of the many attempts."

[Stenno]

Ah ok. Less impressive then! From this video though it linked me to the one below which is pretty insane...

And I'm sure there's an equally plausible explanation for why Alice and the tin man followed the yellow brick road, but that too would spoil the fun:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

It does help explain why he was putting his cam down in front of a seagull in the first place, which seemed a bit of an odd thing to be doing

[Ed]

Yes that is perfectly true oh king:)

Carp thing is v v funny too:lol:

the quote you posted was not from the OP of the video but a poor attempt to a fake translation of an interview done with him
