HUMAN PLANET

I've been watching the BBC series Human Planet by getting the discs one at a time from Netflix. Have you seen it? (I'm currently on disc two!) It aired on Discovery Channel in April this year but I don't get that channel. Both the environments and the people are just incredible. From underwater hunting on one breath to building houses in the treetops, I find myself constantly marveling at the activities that are just the everyday norm for some of these people. The oceans episode is my favourite thus far. If you are ever having a lousy people day (we've all had them) I suggest watching it. Kind of restores your faith in humanity. (Bonus: there are narwhals!)
