Attenborough at 100: Living Fully & Saving Oceans

0:00On March 31, Sir David Attenborough is hitting 100 years old on May 8th, and he's dropping some real wisdom ahead of the big day. The legendary broadcaster says he's not scared of death itself, but of not squeezing every drop out of life. A special BBC program is lined up to celebrate his centenary, marking nearly a century of sharing the planet's wonders. He's stressing that after all his travels, the sea stands out as Earth's most crucial spot. Save the oceans, he says, and we save everything else. Fun fact, though, this guy who's handled snakes and spiders without flinching, absolutely despises rats and bolts at the sight of one. Fans worry about his health after a pacemaker in 2013 and knee replacements in 2015, plus losing his wife back in, 1997? He's admitted fears of just becoming helpless and old age, but he describes his eight-decade career as joyfully roaming the globe for the coolest. No retirement in sight, with fresh BBC shows dropping this year.
