The private life of plants, by David Attenborough. I love it because it shows plants living at our speed (timelapses) with clear explanation and interesting facts. The soundtrack is nice and weird with a lot of synths, which is different from the normal orchestral backing. Also I love David :)

So happy to see someone out on the webs that also enjoyed that documentary! It's an older one, if I'm not mistaken. I really really really enjoyed that one and it gave me a much different perspective on plant life. I still think of some of the stuff i saw on that series.

Ngl following the life of a plant sounds ultra boring, I don't think even Sir Attenborough can do that interesting for me.

I get where you are coming from, but you could not be more wrong. They fix the boring part because they speed up those parts by a factor of 30000 or more. I learned so much from this series of docu's. Also... It's Sir Attenborough, arguably one of the best in his class. He can do it, nobody. He can do it.

Spoken by a person who is almost infinitely interested in everything, hahaha.

You haven't lived until you see two vines desperately trying to choke the shit out of each other in "real time" for them which is like 20x speed for us.
