Watch the first 10 minutes with dutch voice-over here…:
Shot by 71 camera crews in 62 countries over 5 years, Planet Earth redefined natural history filmmaking and amazed viewers with never-before-seen animal behaviors and startling views of locations captured by cameras for the first time.
“Caves” takes you to the monsters in the basements of the world: weird white crabs, pallid blind salamanders, hydrogen-eating bacteria and worms that glow in the dark. They live in caves furnished with bizarre and beautiful crystal chandeliers, limestone turrets and eerily dead-calm lakes. It’s a world without day and night and where the only circadian rhythm may be the coming and going of bats or birds.
