i bet all the wild life now knows david attenborough. now everytime he goes to make a series the animals all go "oh look theres that attenborough bloke again. my dad said he messed up his dancing arena a few years back."
the life this guy has been living is truly amazing. for someone to see and experience just some of what this guy has seen and done with his life would be priceless. but to have done and achieved all this and to share it with us. unbelievably amazing. much respect and ty dave. to have learned so much of the world around me from my desk. if i hit the lottery i want to see some of what this great explorer has seen first hand. lyre bird, orchids, insanely large fungi. have a chimp throw feces at me.
I always find birds and insects to be the most interesting of animals to watch on animal documentaries. They always have very strange rituals and appear very exotic.
If you watch the Planet Earth II episode where they feature this bird, David says something I found kind of amusing, in a way... He just finishes talking about evolution and then says that this jungle is the Eden to the animals there. haha
Goes to foreign country, piss's off the local wildlife by messing up there pad :P Sir. David Attenborough been my hero since I was like 7 years old and still carry on my fascination of the natural world but only in the wilderness of the UK. Would love to go around the world to see all the amazing wildlife alas its rather expensive :(
@aauro I'm surprised that you are so offended by my comment. If you think about it, God and religion are as much products of human evolution as hair or eye colour. God and religion are as superfluous for human survival as music and art. Yet, many people practice it and would attribute their survival to it. Evolution is real, of course it is, but human existence is more than the documentation of perceivable fact - if it weren't so I would be unable to experience wonder at this bird's behaviour.
Damn, why must every time we enjoy a proper scientific and educating video must people bring in the religious shit? Go elsewhere to preach! If we wanna hear it, we will be watching religious videos, not these.
Its nothing to do with god, allah or any other delusions you may have. Evolution. Start using the word more often and stop being arrogent enough to believe that this world was 'created' for your pleasure. Sir Attenborough, im sorry for the idiots who fail to grasp the point of your programs.
