Wait for the backflip near the end of the clip! This is in the Sea of Cortez and narrated by David Tennant. This clip is from the BBC YouTube channel. A new program that looks spectacular called EarthFlight, which start December 29th on BBC One for our UK readers. 7 comments to A Pelican’s Eye View of Leaping Devil RaysLeave a Reply |

We see them jumping in Yucatan Mexico in the summertime too, but nothing like that! Mobulas are some of my favourite animals. I like the one towards the end where the remora falls off half way through the jump
I see the Doctor has once again encountered the sea devils.
Worse – he plays with flying rays again. Last time (ep. 4.15), they created a wormhole, destroyed a planet and damaged a double-decker bus.
Earthflight is one of the worst nature documentaries I’ve seen in a while. The footage is spectacular, but it’s spoiled by a freakishly inane script, and Tennant over-narrating.
The only way I can actually get through it is by muting it and putting some classical music on.
Ha! That’s hilarious as I totally zoned out the narration while repeatedly watching this. That’s a shame. I only saw this clip, but was excited by it. Oh well, back to the Attenborough then.
My kids find it amazing, to hear the 10th Doctor speaking so strangely. Naturally, I played this for them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3cRUXtsDUY8
