(#12) Man Survives Cassowary Attack And 7-Foot Tumble
Birds are awesome creatures, until they try to kick you to death.
In April 2012, Dennis Ward and his family were watching a photographer capture pictures of a cassowary at Babinda Boulders, Australia. It began as a great experience, until the cassowary became angry and attacked.
Ward instinctively turned his back to avoid being disemboweled by the giant bird. It lunged and kicked him with enough force to send him tumbling down a 7-foot cliff.
The cassowary is one of the largest species of flightless birds and looks more like a dinosaur than a bird. It has giant claws on its feet, it can outrun humans, and it lives on a diet of fruit making it the most terrifying, curmudgeonly vegetarian around. It's also one of the deadliest.
Aside from the distinctive crest on its head, the cassowary doesn’t sing or chirp like most birds. It growls.
After kicking Ward off the cliff, the cassowary ran off into the rainforest nearby. Meanwhile, Mr. Ward was brought to a hospital to be monitored. He later commented: “What a holiday story to tell - flew into Cairns one day and the next I am attacked by a giant chook.”
