Using the latest scientific findings, Walking With Dinosaurs examines the 155-million-year history of these great creatures, from the aggressive Coelophysis, who first learned to hunt in packs, to Tyrannosaurus Rex, the most terrifying carnivore on the planet. Feel the ground tremble as dueling Triceratops lock horns, and soar with Ornithocheirus, who could travel over 300 miles on a single wing flap. (official distributor synopsis)

Walking with Dinosaurs (1999) 

English As a kid I used to watch it on VHS over and over again, but my admiration for the series grew even stronger as I got older. Definitely the most epic journey into prehistoric times that we have seen on TV so far, supported by flawless animation, authentic locations, great music and a beautiful storyline that is far more engaging than just a flood of information and facts. If there is one truly perfect documentary, this is the one. ()
