Life – A preview of the series. from Documentally on Vimeo.
I’ve managed to get my hands on a sneak preview of the BBC Natural History Unit’s new blockbuster landmark series, ‘LIFE’ which is due to go out this autumn on BBC1.
It’s planned to be a series of 10 one hour programmes telling the definitive story of life on Earth. The following video clip shows Mike Gunton, the Executive Producer of the series, explaining how the production team intend to build on the awe, spectacle and epic scale of the Planet Earth footage..

“A gray whale decided to breach between two fishing boats out in Banderas Bay, off of Puerto Vallarta, on Mexico’s coast,” writes photographer Lea Wheeler. “We were told we might see some gray whales but did not expect to see one breach just a few yards from our boat. The winter and spring are good times to see the whales in this area.”

A crocodile clutches the lower left arm of veterinarian Chang Po-yu at the Shoushan Zoo in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, on April 11, 2007. The croc bit Chang’s arm off when he tried to remove a tranquilizer dart. Two bullets were fired at the croc, but it was unharmed. The arm was reattached.
unfortunately the video cant be embedded, but its pretty awesome…basically, “Underwater footage reveals that the creatures scoop up halved coconut shells before scampering away with them so they can later use them as shelters.”:
