Summary:
This is the story of a river that almost splits a continent in half and contains a fifth of all the river water on the planet. Annually it floods an area larger than England. With the help of the best of wildlife imagery, fantastic aerial and space photography, and new-look visual effects, Natural World takes the ultimate look at the biggest river system on the planet, from its primordial origins to the life that now survives there. Make an impossible journey from the Andes to the Atlantic and explore an untameable super force - the most diverse place on earth, The Amazon.
