BBC’S Human Planet “Mountains: Life in Thin Air” on GMA News TV
BBC’S HUMAN PLANET
“Mountains: Life in Thin Air”
ON GMA NEWS TV, SEPTEMBER 8, SUNDAY, 10:15 PM
From lush cloud forests to bare summits that take your breath away, the higher you climb, the tougher life gets on a mountain. This Sunday on GMA News TV, BBC's Human Planet explores the extraordinary ways in which people survive at extreme altitudes, where nature becomes utterly unforgiving.
In the Altai Mountains in Western Mongolia, the vast open spaces make hunting for animals almost impossible, so the locals have forged an astonishing partnership with golden eagles, which can do the hunting for them.
On the precipitous cliffs of the Simien Mountains of Ethiopia, a young boy is locked in a dramatic battle with fearsome gelada monkeys, hell-bent on raiding his family's meagre grain harvest.
In the Himalayan state of Nepal - the roof of the world – Human Planet witnesses a rarely seen ceremony: a sky burial. In a land where there is little wood to burn for cremation, and where burying the dead is virtually impossible, the dead are fed to vultures in the ultimate reverence of nature.
Narrated in Filipino by award-winning documentarist Kara David, “Human Planet: Mountains – Life in Thin Air” airs this Sunday, September 8 at 10:15PM only on GMA News TV Channel 11.
