About this episode
Our planet is home to many mysterious places you won't want to visit because it would be too dangerous, or the local population wouldn't welcome you. The Javarri Valley in Brazil is an untouched jungled area of 33 thousand square miles, slightly larger than Austria. It’s illegal for outsiders to enter this area, as contact with outside humans would be volatile to the natives' health. Heard Island is an offshore territory of Australia, 80% of it is covered in ice, and it has the country’s only active volcanoes. Here's your unique chance to see this and other territories around the world where you can't travel without a special permit.
