I haven't a clue it was just the link posted and my memory is terrible and I can watch some things again and it be like the first time so me trying to recall if it was from a particular series is futile but it sounds like a reasonable assumption to me

Re: Sir David Attenborough - Wildlife documentaries
Springtails are awesome little things, it's too bad their antics can't really be appreciated with the naked eye.
On another note, I've recently been made aware of some admittedly odd criticism of Attenborough: David Attenborough Accused Of Ignoring Gay Animals In His Nature Shows - Celebrity Gossip, News & Photos, Movie Reviews, Competitions - Entertainmentwise
The main criticism is that the programs "ignore" the interpretations of a given behavior being evidence of homosexuality. Regardless of anything else, I think it is rather silly to expect a documentary to address every possible interpretation of a given animal behavior in its narration.

Re: Sir David Attenborough - Wildlife documentaries
I have only watched the 1st one so far (I think it was the 1st with the chameleons?) and have got the others recorded so no spoilers

Re: Sir David Attenborough - Wildlife documentaries
I learned this by accident. If you have a home theatre system with a sub woofer, or just a powerful sub woofer, watch these with it turned on!!!
I watched BBC "Life" and accidentally left the sub woofer turned up, and WOW the tribal beats in the background are "thumpy" (try it)
The sound engineers did a great job, the drum beats never wash out the commentary.

Re: Sir David Attenborough - Wildlife documentaries
Was at a yard sale this last Saturday. It was the end of the day and the girl said everything was free. Picked up an old Pepsi steel serving tray, a lobster trap, a set of turn signals for my ATV, a cabinet which could or could not be re-fashioned into a habitat cage, and..... The entire series of Trials of Life with Sir DA himself. FREE. They are on VHS and now I have to get me a VHS player again!

Re: Sir David Attenborough - Wildlife documentaries
Watched this tonight David Attenborough's Natural History Museum Alive 3D another fantastic program from the great knight of the realm.
Told my 4 year old daughter who watched it all completly enthralled that we will visit that museum one day which made her really exited as she said she could see all the animals come to life and move around the museum so I had to explain to her it was just a program and the animals don't move around to which she replied "no daddy, they properly do"  Oh to be young again.....

Watched that with my grand kids earlier today. The opening is funny, Like Sir. David would have to hide behind a display to gain after hours access.
