Synopsis

Raging Nature takes you right into the heart of some of Mother Nature’s most awe-inspiring events, showcasing all the action caught on film.

Witness this awe-inspiring nature footage, featuring swarms, sandstorms, giant hailstones and freak electricity storms. See these events deconstructed and analysed, providing unique insight into what, how and why each took place.

All will be pieced back together by interviewing the people who were directly involved in the incidents, and then experts will be brought in to deconstruct what went so wrong.

These commentaries are brought to life with advanced CGI reconstruction technology which is used to give further insight into these incredible events.

Raging Nature: Tornadoes

Tornadoes analyzes the most destructive tornadoes ever caught on tape, from the 1999 Oklahoma City Tornado to a 2005 twister that decimated the town of Woodward, Iowa.

Hear eyewitness accounts from those who survived the storms and watch the footage they risked their lives to capture. Plus, using forensic animation, Raging Nature: Tornadoes examines each clip, revealing details even the survivors did not see.

Raging Nature: Swarms and Stampedes

They are some of the most dramatic and destructive forces of mother nature. Masses of animals and insects that can be vicious, violent, and even deadly.

Around the globe, millions and often billions of creatures are locked into a timeless battle where only the strongest will survive.

Raging Nature: Swarms and Stampedes flies directly into the swarm allowing viewers to travel as a member of the herd to dissect some of the most incredible video ever shot.

Then, through the aid of computer graphics and animation, we see for the first time the true savagery of swarms and stampedes.

Raging Nature: Landslides

Landslides are one of nature's most terrifying disasters, responsible for thousands of deaths around the world each year. Some of the most unforgettable landslides ever caught on tape are analyzed by scientists and their stories told by those who managed to survive them.

Computer graphics show you what the video does not, filling in the holes of how and why these destructive forces of nature occured.
