Journey Into Amazing Caves

Descenting into the Grand Canyon

Infinitely mysterious and radical by definition, caves are one of Earth's last unexplored frontiers. For those compelled to push their limits in the world's most hostile environments, the risk of fatal danger and the thrill of new discovery are the everyday factors that make cave exploration such an awe-inspiring experience. Welcome to an all-new adventure, subterranean-style: Journey into Amazing Caves.

Ice cave in GreenlandDuring Journey into Amazing Caves, audiences will wriggle through tiny, twisting passages, drop into gleaming blue labyrinths of ice, swim through flooded underground vaults, and enter a world so extreme the microscopic creatures who live there are called extremophiles. They will circle the globe, stopping in the hot, lush Yucatán, dropping into barren, frozen Greenland and flying above the primitive red rock Arizona desert. And they will hold their breath as their expedition leaders, Dr. Hazel Barton and Nancy Aulenbach, rappel down steep cliffs into unmapped chambers, hoping to bring back startling new discoveries that may unlock new cures for human disease.

Internationally acclaimed actor Liam Neeson narrates Journey into Amazing Caves, which also features new songs and performances by the classic rock band The Moody Blues.
