The phrase 'national treasure' are thrown around more than a volleyball at the olympics, but when it comes to David Attenborough, there truly isn't a better way to describe him. He is the nation's granddad. We'd adopt him if we could.
As Planet Earth returns to our screens for a second series, we look back at 18 times he was probably the best man to walk the world. Ever.
1. When he loved a good leaf
2. When he let a gorilla bite his knee cap
3. When this happened and you couldn't help but be happy
4. When he met a blind baby rhino and it was incredible
5. When you realise he was quite fit in 1963
(Are we allowed to say that?)
6. When he accidentally swore and everyone loved it
7. When he narrated Adele's 'Hello' and it was amazing
8. When you watch him through the decades
9. When he found meerkats hilarious
10. When he was in his boxers
11. When this magical moment happened
12. When he was unfathomably fearless
13. WHEN HE WAS ACTUALLY REALLY FIT.
14. When he said 'Boo' to a sloth and it was wonderful
15. When a snake spat venom at him and DO YOU HAVE NO RESPECT?
16. When he had patience like no other
17. When he took his life into his own hands for our entertainment
18. When you really, really wanted him to be your granddad
Now how exactly do we go about making him immortal?
