I love Frontline!  I'll have to look for it in the PBS app.

It was linked by a Washington Post article describing how crows plague the Kremlin: picking the gold leaf off domes, harrassing tourists, and even stealing classified papers to build a nest. So the Kremlin has some falcons and an eagle owl in its employ to frighten the crows away.

Wow hilarious. I was not expecting that ending on a moped. How can you tell it's the same guy as the runner/jumper?

Just talking nonsense, Greg. He just seemed to have the same disregard for other vehicles as the runner did for the hurdles.
