Supersense

Supersense
BBC Documentary

You are starting a journey into a world of senses different from your own. We experience life through five main senses, but even these are better developed in some familiar animals. Smell your way across an ocean as a salmon does. See, through the multi-aspected eye of a fly, what a human hand looks like when it is about to strike. Amazing effects reveal the secrets of animal perception.

Supersense is a six-part nature documentary series produced by the BBC Natural History Unit, originally broadcast in the UK on BBC1 in 1988. The series producer was John Downer and the narrator Andrew Sachs. It used groundbreaking effects and filming techniques to show how animals perceive the world around them. The same production team went on to make the follow-up series Lifesense in 1991 and Supernatural in 1999. Excerpt from Wikipedia
