But you don't even need to to have studied it know this. Anyone who's seen a bird fly knows those wings look weird in the dragon video. They flap but have no flex.

This is a crude example, but explains what I mean.



Also, you could just say that dragons aren't real and the video is bullshit.
At least the eagle taking the child clip was actually done well (except the child falling).. This just looks shit.. Fuck if you can't animate wings properly just have it soar and turn.. It would have looked better with LESS animation.
