A modern day Robin Hood going by the name DrAdrianSmith has placed nearly all of David Attenborough's documentaries on youtube. Many of them have already been taken down after understandable BBC complaints. But one of them, The Private Life of Plants, remains up. This is great news for American documentary fans, because The Private Life of Plants was never released for Region 1 DVDs, and thus is only available to North American viewers on VHS. Watch it while you still can!
"We destroy plants at our peril. Neither we nor any other animal can survive without them. The time has now come for us to cherish our green inheritance, not to pillage it — for without it, we will surely perish."
-David Attenborough's closing line in The Private Life of Plants
