From the bit that I could see (Internet connection = useless, in a UK city...), nice.

The only thing I fear is that people will "overdo" it with high speed video...

Awesome. I bet it was p-ssed, when it realized that it just wasted all that energy.. chasing something that wasn't lunch. Hope that fed it, right afterwards. ;)

Very cool to see the setup too.

it was cool watching thier heads, they dont move off the target the whole time. at top speed it looks like they only have one leg on the ground at a time. cool video.

Great video and a education on how they run. I saw one make a kill in the Serengeti and it was more awesome than any thing I had seen on nature documentaries. She was no more than twenty feet from me when she started her run and in the blink of a eye she was just a dot in the distance...I just stood there with my mouth open.

That's incredible. I wish I could have been there when that was filmed. That looks like fun!
