As a man who has shown us the far reaches of the earth and introduced us to creatures and natural beauty we didn't even know existed - we have to assume that you have at least one awe-inspiring moment that you have shared with the great broadcaster and naturalist, David Attenborough. We certainly do! Here's a few of our favourite David Attenborough moments . . .

There are always jaw-dropping scenes in David Attenborough’s nature programs but the Killer Whales (in Frozen Planet) working as a pack to hunt a seal off the ice is the one that sticks in my mind. I remember the hunting scene being described as wave washing, and whilst it was a nerve-wracking scene (it’s never easy watching animals hunt), it was also an incredible, mesmerizing piece of footage. 7 years later people still refer to that scenes as an eye-opener to how whales hunt and how sophisticated it is. Go see it for yourself.

I remember watching Life in the Undergrowth with my small son and getting to the part where the leopard slugs mate and being completely transfixed/repulsed while worrying my son was going to ask questions I didn’t want to answer.

This quote is probably too much but I love it 

When Creationists talk about God creating every individual species as a separate act, they always instance hummingbirds, or orchids, sunflowers and beautiful things.

But I tend to think instead of a parasitic worm that is boring through the eye of a boy sitting on the bank of a river in West Africa, [a worm] that’ going to make him blind.

And [I ask them], 'Are you telling me that the God you believe in, who you also say is an all-merciful God, who cares for each one of us individually, are you saying that God created this worm that can live in no other way than in an innocent child’s eyeball? Because that doesn’t seem to me to coincide with a God who’ full of mercy.'

This footage of great white sharks is completely fascinating and extraordinary.  They are such majestic and wonderous creatures, but I hope to never be mistaken for a seal!

Attenborough completely ripping into a sloth and slinging insults such as ‘moving compost heap’ and creeps on Mr. Sloth to just yell ‘BOO’ in his face. The sloth’s reaction makes this moment.

Just hilarious.

The odds are stacked against these baby iguanas who, to begin their life, have to escape to the ocean by crossing a sandy, snake-infested area. The tension in this heart-pounding race for survival is up there with the best thrillers i've seen. My knuckles were white!
