It seems impossible, but some beautiful swans are responsible for a man's death. INSIDE EDITION spoke to the devastated family of 37-year-old Tony Hensley who was killed by the creatures that have come to symbolize peace and tranquility.Hensley was in a kayak checking a swan nest in a pond at an apartment complex outside Chicago. Hensley's father told INSIDE EDITION, "They kept attacking him. He almost made it back to shore but they kept attacking him.""They're very big and very beautiful animals. They're very large, and very protective animals," said Hensley's brother.You'd be surprised at how aggressive swans can be. YouTube videos show them fighting with geese, their natural enemies. Swans are big birds that weigh over 30 pounds, with an imposing eight-foot wingspan.
I have to wonder about the dude's swimming skills.
