1967年12月3日,克里斯和马吕斯·巴纳德兄弟实现了首次成功的人类心脏移植手术。克里斯接受了社会的赞美,马吕斯却对这件事情避而不谈。在马吕斯2014年去世前拍摄的独家专访中,终于同意讲述他的故事,但也只有他的女儿,电影制片人瑙德内·莱塞冈,适合向大众来讲述这个故事。这部电影揭示了名声是如何影响到巴纳德兄弟之间的关系,澄清了汉密尔顿·纳基的谣言,揭示了一个50年来的秘密,并向所有参与纪念50周年的人致敬。影片还探讨了心脏手术的未来,以及今天南非开普敦的格鲁特医院在这方面所取得的进步。

Somewhere in Myanmar is a forest rich in amber and controlled by the Kachin Independence Army (KIA). Most of its inhabitants work in a mine, digging the earth night and days in the hope of finding the precious ore that will get them out of poverty. But on top of the excruciating hardship of the work, they also have to fear an attack from the army.

The 'Mighty Eighth Air Force' tilted the balance for the Allies during World War II. This is the story of how they did it, using rare archival footage and dramatic eye-witness accounts of the airmen and the commanders themselves.
The history of Mattel's definitive action figure toy line.
Imagine a world where sea levels have risen by 20 feet. Cities flood and coastal regions disappear. Travel to Greenland where scientists are investigating if this nightmare could become a reality .
在我们的日常生活里,被毛发覆盖的生物比比皆是,我们几乎就没怎么关注过它们。然而,它们却无处不在。我们人类周身都被毛发覆盖着,猫、老鼠、大黄蜂、长颈鹿、蒲公英和荨麻也是如此。即使是小小水坑中的微生物也拥有属于它们自己的附属丝。有很多人都希望自己身上可以不长毛发,可是,没有毛发的皮肤真的就这么好吗?在这部纪录片中,科学家们用一种新的视角阐述了这些无数微小附属物在我们人类以及所有其它生物的生活中的重要性。我们会发现,隐藏在它们纤长外表之下的是真正的自然力量。
中国大系多数为90年代的大型电视系列片,因具体年代不明,文件名中标注的年代一概为DVD发行年代。 “风水”用抽象的“气”的运动变化规律,也即按自然的秩序,采取自然的行动,就会获得平安与快乐。中国古代建筑的选址、择地、方位、布局等都与风水理论是息息相关的。古人们根据风水理论来建造各种中国传统景观,反过来说,中国传统特色景观反映了风水文化。 《中国风水文化》风水理论是中国古代传统宇宙观、自然观、环境观、审美观的一种反映,“风水”历来被视为左右命运的极纽,古代“风水”绝学秘密相传,真正秘术从不公开“风水”本意为“藏风得水”《葬书》释曰:藏风聚气,得水为上,故谓之风水。“风水”又称“堪舆”,堪指高处,即天道,“舆”指低处,即地道。
Massive machines require engineering extremes. The massive man-made satellite, commonly known as the International Space Station, hurtling around the Earth at 27,600 km an hour, has been a temporary home for humans for the last 20 years. The biggest land vehicle on earth, a bucket excavator titled Bagger 293, that can move 240,000 cubic meters of dirt each day. Innovation has always meant building bigger, faster, taller, longer and stronger than anything that came before. We’ve seen them in dramatic visual fashion. But how do these actually work? What sets each machine apart. What big ideas drove its evolution and what limitations did this machine overcome? What forces was it built to withstand and where is the breaking point? Using CGI and expert insights, we ‘strip down’ the design of some of the world’s unique colossal machines and reveal mechanical secrets that not only made them work, but also changed the world in a big way! Each episode explores four incredible machines, linked thematically. From sea and space faring designs, to mega airborne, mining and industrial machines, we’ll break down what they can do as well as key inner mechanics and materials that make it all possible. Dynamic archival footage featuring; slow motion, aerials, and time-lapses get us past the ‘caution’ tape and up close and personal with these compound monsters. CGI provides breakouts and blueprints and a look at hidden mechanisms. Adding expertise of structural, mechanical, chemical and forensic engineers to help reveal what’s at stake when these colossal constructions are put work, and how all the pieces come together to make a big impact.
