The TRUE STORY of Hitchcock’s The Birds | Science Stranger than Fiction || Wild Lives Ep. 2
LIKE, THIS REALLY HAPPENED. Alfred Hitchcock’s classic THE BIRDS is, in part, inspired by a very real phenomenon that occurred in Santa Cruz, California in 1961. One night, inexplicably, thousands of sooty shearwater birds lost their minds, dive-bombing into homes and even biting people. But, for 50 years, no one knew why… That is, until…

How to Make a YouTube Video in 1987
Decades before software like Premiere and iMovie made video editing cheap, easy, and accessible for everyone, the only option was chaining a conglomerate of vintage 80s technology – multiple camcorders or VCRs and a TV – to craft custom analog video.

The Birds is based on a short story written by Daphne du Maurier and published in 1952… with some possible inspiration from Robert E. Howard’s The Pigeons from Hell.

@Garry Robinson You’re both right. It was based off the story but Hitchcock also drew inspiration from the real-life incident. To be fair it’s definitely a clickbait title but there is still a connection.

For those in the comment section (and likely for those to come later) please pay better attention to the actual video dialogue as well as the description under the video, instead of getting triggered and attributing something that is neither said, nor implied. It’s frankly embarrassing what little cognition so many people have these days.

I’ve heard stories of presumably-sane birds dive-bombing animals (cats, humans, etc.) that they perceive to be potential predators, so it makes sense that confused or poisoned flocks of birds might do the same to random creatures, even if there is no reason for them to perceive them as predators.
