Overview

This bold cinematic experience takes viewers on a magical adventure across the greatest, yet least known, parts of our planet – our oceans. Since Blue Planet aired in 2001, our understanding of life beneath the waves has completely changed. Travelling from the icy polar seas to the vibrant blues of the coral atolls, this series shares these astonishing new discoveries. Meet the strange octopuses lurking in the depths of the Antarctic Ocean. Watch giant trevally fish leap to catch birds in mid-air. And ride on the back of a hammerhead shark as it attacks. Inspiring awe and wonder, Blue Planet II reveals surprising new places, charismatic new characters and extraordinary new behaviours.

In This Sequence

Beware the Bobbit Worm

Jungle Run Production Services

This shoot required cameraman Hugh Miller and producer Sarah Conner to adopt the ambush hunting strategies of their subjects -- to perch near motionless over bobbit worm dens for hours on end, in pitch darkness.

On this go, Jungle Run had easier work -- researching and securing locations and local support in Lembeh Strait, providing a re-breather safety diver, sourcing an in-country stash of re-breather consumables and sorting all necesasry permits.
