Ever since drones, our view of the world has changed. We’ve been able to take to the heavens, visit dangerous places, and see things from afar that previously would have remained hidden. We sample some of the most bizarre things that drones have captured. Some of these things are scary, some are jarring, some are downright bizarre. Check out these extraordinary sightings that could only be seen with the help of drones!
10. A Farmer Saves His Plants
Here, this drone managed to capture a farmer in the midst of saving his plants. While we do not know if he succeeded, we do understand what he was hoping to do. In essence, the way in which the farmer is traveling in relation to the fire indicates that he is trying to create a fire point.
A fire point is a way to destroy the fuel for a fire. Here, that fuel is dry crops. If the farmer destroys these crops in a consistent way in front of the flame, the fire will have no fuel to burn once it gets into the line. The expectation is that this temporary lack of fuel will avoid the flame from burning forward. While dangerous, this was a valiant effort by the tractor driver to protect the land.
