People of the Rainforest

This clip, from the BBC's "Human Planet" series, features stories about people who live in the rainforest - including a family who built a treehouse at the top of the jungle's canopy. 

Among other things, we see rainforest children catching spiders - big, scary tarantulas - then roasting them, over a fire, for a tasty dinner!

John Hurt is the narrator of this series, and the BBC provides a "behind-the-scenes" look at how the narration process occurs.
