He is letting the animal kingdom BE the animal kingdom without human interference, what you're suggesting is that he creates a false reality for us to feel better, this is what happens ok? The animal kingdom isn't friendly and is run on instincts

      @Rad Derry firstly, doctors and fire crew are paid to save you aka that's their job, Davids job isn't to save these animals it is to observe them and what I mean by the "he forfeits that forever" he forfeits the right to claim he observes wildlife in just that WILDlife. Secondly, when the fuck did I say poachers were good? That is the exact opposite of what I'm saying. POACHING IS HUMAN INTERFERENCE U IDIOT. And thirdly, do you really expect me to believe that you survived in the wild amongst apex predators for years? oh please stop lying so you can win an argument on the fucking internet. You want to know what I think? I think your a greasy middle-aged man trying to win (but cant) an argument with a fucking teenager online! You actual fuck head.

      @Rad Derry he causes the awareness that people need to have for endangered species, even though it's sad his philosophy is very strict with the circle of life. As he also stated in the interview it's inevitable in the wildlife, the only reason he doesn't help is to showcase the circle of life, it's nature, it's what makes nature thrive and him in taking action in it can disrupt the circle. Don't state that he doesn't help animals also do your research, remember they're wild animals his camera crew would be at risk too. Think before you speak next time and do a bit of research before you judge someones character. Also the last thing you want to do is slander a 93 year old, last thing you want is to live the rest with remorse and guilt rather than him atonning for it or enjoying the rest.

    Clearly Ross asked his first question just to talk about the octopus, and basically rudely ignored the amazingly good answer that Attenborough gave. A little acknowledgement of that titanic, mysterious event and the awe and curiosity it so obviously inspires in Attenborough would have gone a long way. Ross should take a leaf out of Graham Norton’s book, who knows how to have a dialogue rather than trying to force comedy police-interrogation style.

      Absolutely! I feel very fortunate, because my own grandfather went into a similar field as a naturalist living in New Hampshire. He's spent his life in the swamps of New England studying and observing turtles, while also working to conserve their habitat. We talk at least once every two weeks over the phone, and almost all of our conversations entail at least some story from his previous trips into the swamps.
      He's 78 years old and still going strong, though is more defeated by the day by the encroachment of people in areas where these turtles nest and breed. While American and not British, he does have a very similar captivating quality with the stories he tells.

    He is breathtaking to me just as himself, and Idres is kind of mesmerized by his stories in his face you can see it. Great show mate TYTY.

    I think of Mr Attenborough as a grandfather he’s been in my life for 30 years plus since I remember him when I was a little boy.

    Long live Sir David Attenborough. Always making people realize that we live on a wonderful planet and that we need to take better care of. Thanks for posting.

    I knew this man's voice for a long time before ever learning his name. I started watching Nat Geo from maybe eight to ten years of age and while I do love Morgan Freeman and NDG also has his charm, none can ever surpass Sir David Attenborough in narrating wild life. There is a genuine interest in his voice that makes me believe wholeheartedly that this job is something he does not for money but for the pleasure and delight it brings him.

    I could sit and listen to Sir David for hours, he's got so many fascinating facts and stories about the natural world.

    The mental sharpness of Sir David Attenborough could easily surpass that of many people, half his age.
    Truly remarkable!

    The only man alive who has truly lived! Loved him as a kid, love him as an adult! Him and his teams have showed the world its beauty, and its beasts!

    Is Idris Elba sitting unusually close to David Attenborough or have I just gotten to used to the 2 metre rule with this Covid 19 business?

      @Buffalo 66 yeah I'm aware that's is not a recent show. I just mean that with having to practice social distancing for some time now it almost seems strange to see people sitting so close together.

      I notice it too, he looks like a school boy siting next to his hero and not quite believing his luck.

    I could listen to this man all day. As an American, we do not just get his work on normal network TV. We had to seek it out on BBC or through documentaries he took part in. Thankfully today we see his content showing up all over the place, which allows us to experience his wonderful work currently as well as in the past.

    This is probably the first time I learn so much from a single clip of a talk show. Much respect for Sir Attenborough
