Human Planet is the first BBC/Discovery Channel co-production to focus solely on human behavior. Since premiering in the UK, the series has received overwhelming critical acclaim including The Telegraph proclaiming, “it’s like nothing you’ve ever seen before” and The Sun stating that it’s “visually stunning and utterly fascinating, this is seriously impressive stuff.” From the makers of Planet Earth, Life and Blue Planet, Human Planet focuses on humanities amazing, complex and profound relationship with nature. It weaves together 80 stories, many never told before, to illuminate humanity’s uncanny ability to adapt and live in every corner of our diverse world. Each episode centers on a particular habitat, and by using innovative and cutting edge filming techniques, reveals how its people have created astonishing solutions in the face of extreme adversity.

What is amazing about the Discovery Channel is that my children can watch educational programs and get to see these parts of the world. Since Human Planet is about nature and how people have adapted to it, I had no trouble getting my boys to sit down and watch this with me. Of course, they were interested in what the people and animals were doing. However, I was just amazed at how some of these people had trained themselves to live and survive. Sometimes we think that the way that we live is rough, after watching this series, it is clear to see that some cultures have really honed their skills to where it is not quite so rough for them because they have trained themselves. However, in most of our cultures, we would be truly lost and incapable of surviving. Be sure to check out Human Planet on the Discover Channel , I think you will be as amazed as I was.
