A paraglider was gliding along, minding his business, when a vulture decided to join him for the flight. The bird of prey, which looks to me like a black vulture, glides alongside the paraglider for a bit, then lands on his equipment and pecks at the man’s shoes. The vulture even lets the man give its tail feathers a pet. It must have been an incredible and memorable moment for this paraglider, and then his video went viral.

“This video is a work of art,” wrote the paraglider in Portuguese, who goes by @rafaellvital on Instagram. Over 6 million people agreed by liking his post.
