GoProis very proud of how robust its cameras are. Today’sbest GoProswill keep filming through a downpour, are happy to take a dip in the sea, and won’t complain if they end up taking a tumble down a rocky mountainside on a mountain bike ride. But are they a match for a parrot attack?
It’s not a test we imagine is routinely run on these action cameras, but a New Zealand family found its GoPro facing just that situation – and it held up impressively well.

“We just followed the sound down there, we could see them hanging out in a tree – they’d obviously heard us coming and abandoned the GoPro – and my son decided to go check the rocks where it looked like a good place for a bird to land, and there it was still sitting there, still filming,” camera owner Alex Verheul told 1news.
While we don’t imagine the GoPro is in the best shape at this point, it’s impressive that the footage remains unaffected throughout the attack. Watch out the video above.
