Heroic brothers free a bald eagle from a trap and take the best selfie of all time

CANADA -- Brothers Michael and Neil Fletcher found a bald eagle stuck in a trap near Windy Lake in Ontario, Canada, which tried to fly away when the two men approached.

Michael and Neal wrapped a jacket around the eagle to calm it down, and then managed to free its talon.

Before leaving the eagle to fly away, the Fletcher’s decided to take a quick photo with the rare animal. The result is one of the greatest selfies ever taken.

Neither man will have to pick a new profile picture for the rest of their lives.
