The Blue Planet: Seas of Life

Amazon.com The BBC's acclaimed nature series The Blue Planet will astonish you from start to finish, and these two episodes are even better than those included in Part 1 ("Ocean World" and "Frozen Seas"). "Open Ocean" travels thousands of miles into the vast "liquid desert," where currents determine how the ocean's diverse life forms will assume their places in the food chain. From manta rays to spinner dolphins, hammerhead sharks, and a plethora of smaller creatures fending for their lives, the patient cameramen capture a movable feast with intense proximity, while narrator David Attenborough brings these forces of nature into eloquent perspective. Even more amazing, "The Deep" descends with a state-of-the-art submersible to the ocean's abyssal plain and beyond, filming such bizarre creatures as the fangtooth, bioluminescent jellies, transparent squid, the giant-mouthed gulper eel, and the never-before-seen hairy angler fish. The Blue Planet provides the privilege of visiting a truly alien world teeming with the rarest wonders of nature. --Jeff Shannon Product Description Blue Planet Seas of Life: Open Ocean / The Deep (DVD) The Blue Planet, the definitive exploration of the Earth's final frontier is now over. From the deep to the shore, from pole to pole it revealed extraordinary life and behaviour that had never before been filmed. In some cases the species were only recently known to scientists. Programme 3 - Open Oceans The open ocean is vast - it covers more than 360 million square kilometres of the Earth's surface. Much of it is a marine desert with virtually no sign of life but somehow the fastest and most powerful predators in the world survive thousands of miles out to sea. Programme 4 - The Deep Sixty per cent of the Earth's surface is covered by ocean more than a mile deep, and only a handful of submarines arecapable of diving that deep. More people have travelled in to space than have ventured in to the deep. The Blue Planet takes a journey in to the abyss where there are strange creatures straight out of Alien. These animals have never been filmed before and some are new to science. ]]>
