A Copenhagen Zoo staffer named Brian regularly delights animal enthusiasts with interesting videos of animals, which he shares on his Instagram profile. Recently, Brian posted a really cool video that captures the ground view of giraffes walking.
Giraffes are the tallest animals in the world by far, with some specimens reaching up to 18 feet. But, Brian’s video really puts their height into perspective.
The zookeeper decided to place his phone on the ground with a camera rolling and have the giraffes exit their stalls over it. This way, their long necks and legs look even more impressive and intimidating.
But even from that height, giraffes are great at spotting the world below them.
“I’ve done a few giraffe walkovers, but this one I think is really cool, if you stick it out to the end, there’s a surprise close-up for you, It always amazes me how they spot the smallest things, even when it’s on the ground like my phone here,” Brian wrote in caption while sharing a number of other interesting facts about giraffes.
Brian’s video ended up quickly spreading across social media after being posted earlier in August, and it already has close to 640K likes. Check it out below.
