Wasn't the original Planet Earth how Marc Cuban built his fortune? IIRC, it was the flagship program for the HD channel he founded that netted him his early seed fortune.

he started a tech company that he sold in the 90s. broadcast.com i believe.

 

[Grrrr]

anyone remember this little guy base jumping?

Little ducks that are born in trees.... Only way out is to make the jump. Nature is crazy.

 

[Grrrr]

Agreed. Great soundtrack as well. I was listening to the opening theme while riding today:

Even people that aren't really into nature shows get drawn in to the original series. Everything about it was great.

I cannot wait. I mainly use mine for my PC, so this is great news
