In this astounding clip from the first episode of BBC’s Planet Earth II nature documentary series, David Attenborough narrates a scene that is absolutely stunning and terrifying at the same time.
A baby marine iguana faces down a racer snake attack on a beach on the Galápagos Islands. the tiny lizard isn’t just trying to escape one snake either – the entire beach is filled with snakes, much like that scene with Indiana Jones in the Raiders of The Lost Ark.
Suspenseful, heartbreaking and exhilarating all at the same time, this video shows why Nature is truly the most amazing storyteller in the world and it’s real.
BBC’s Planet Earth II is now airing on television worldwide and available through Amazon. Watch the jaw-dropping trailer for the show below and share it with your friends.
