Dramatic footage has emerged from Turkey of an eagle swooping down on a paraglider and ripping holes in the fabric of his chute.

The footage, captured from a helmet cam over Turkey's Antalya Province on June 2, shows the terrifying moment a giant bird of prey attacked the airborne paraglider.

The man can be heard screaming at the bird as its attacks, threatening to tear apart the man's chute.

Thankfully, the rider is able to land safely, despite severe damage to the fabric.

Right after he lands, the man can be heard exclaiming "Now I'm a paraglider who's survived an eagle attack!"
