As mentioned by many before me: the person kills the bird quickly. This happens so fast that most humans that have no understanding of nature, animals and slaughtering methods even realize what they are witnessing even though its all part of the very video you are now commenting on. But I understand, most people from the industrialized lifestyle have no clue about the origin of their food and do not understand slaughter.
What happens is that he breaks the neck of the bird with a one hand move, breaking the spinal cords by the neck, which causes the little animal to become numb and braindead instantly. The same braindead situation occures when the butcher in the slaughter house used a socalled stumpgun (more like a mine hammer) to numb/brainkill the cow, pig or other large animal, before the actual slaughter takes place: different technique adapted to animals size = same result = braindead animals with no feeling the the actual slaughter that has not even begin.
Not this has happened does he start the slaughter the animal, in this it also involves pulling its trought out to get its special "poison" out of its body - but by this stage the animal is already dead, killed earlier - in this case seconds earlier, but happens so fast few people understand what they are actually seeing.
A already dead pig hanging up on its hooks, or a headless chicken can still move around - its called muscle spasm, and also happens to humans where the muscles of the already dead human or animal does its last muscle retractions. The person or animal is already dead by this point, and the same goes for the bird where they can flap its wings, which by the ill informed person who does not understand nature, animals and slaughter, is misintrepreait as if the person or animal are still alive, feeling pain and are in agony - but that is not the case. The animal is already dead way before this point.
So before jumping to conclusions and judging this person as a mean person inflicting unnecessary pain to a animal, please try to understand nature, animals and basic biology related to slaughter, before judging.
Pain is always part of a slaughter, but the point is that this bird feels as little pain as possible because its been nocked out within a split of a second as its spinal cords are broken by a one hand move - quick and effective kill.

The comment above by "Blue Hart" was made by a TROLL supporting Sea Shepherd, that does not tolerate when people speak facts. So in stead of telling the truth they TROLL people and create FAKE ACCOUNTS in other peoples names, as mine, as they done just above
The comment claims the islanders are greedy, wastefull and cruel.
Well, that is one view, but the reality is the islanders are the opposite of greedy, as they do not kill for money, but share most of their food freely among friends and family. Skin, feathers, feet for toys, nothing goes to waste. The bones and parts that can not be eaten, after used in soupe, is given back to nature where it gets broken doing to small particales that smaller organisms can take in = gives back to the circle of life.
The commenter (in my name (fake account) also claims the islanders are cruel. Well, the killing is quick and the animal lived a far better life than any of the billions of animals we yearly enslave and kill in rest of our world. We kill for money, but the islanders have a tradition of not killing for money, but share most of the food, and the rest of the animals are left alone where most of them will die of natural causes

hi again @karllarsen8797 I am not Faroese, but I have visited the islands a few times and had the chance to eat many of their local foods, including fulmars.
Delicious.
I find it hard to compare the meat from fulmars birds with anything else, as fulmar meat is not white as chicken meat, but dark and the skin has a lot of fat on it. Much fattier than chicken, ducks or any bird I have tasted.
The North Atlantic Fulmars spend 99% of their life on the ocean and only eat fatty fresh fish. I guess that helps to add to their special flavor.
The traditional way of eating fulmars on the islands is to, after pealing all the feathers of it, to salt them and then cook them with potato's. In that version the bird still contains a lot of fat and the locals normally eat some special dark Nordic bread to balance out the fatty tastiness feeling of the meal.
But in more modern versions they put the birds in the stove and in that version most of the fat melts into the meat and leaves a more crispy skin version. Some use various "modern" spices, but often only salt and maybe pepper is used. Because of the skin being so fatty, and rich in flavor, the crispness and taste is unlike any other bird I have tasted. I liked it a lot.

Among my comments have been about how the bird does not die a slow death, but actually dies instantly when he, with a quick one hand move, breaks the spinal cords by the neck. Doing this cuts off the vital blood pressure to the little birds brain. This causes a vital blood pressure drop in the brain, causing it instantly to become numb and braindead.
I can understand how a person without any clue about the origin of food and the slaughter that goes along with it, can misinterpret what you see in the video and jump to conclusions. The video also shows the birds wings flapping, and some interpret this as the bird still being alive, but that is just las minute nerve retractions, or musle spams, that occurs even after death. This also happens if you cut of a head of an animal, which is a common sight in animal slaughter houses. But again, the animal is all dead by then, its just last second/minute nerve retractions that can cause body movement of the already dead body.
Many Sea Shepherd and animal activists know all of these, but deliberately twist reality, ignore facts and bend things in their way, trying to mislead the ill informed masses since they have so weak arguments for their views
