Subterranean Spiders Survive in Total Darkness South Pacific BBC Earth

This remarkable subterranean world is a place of ghostly stillness. A sure advantage for the small-eyed, big-eyed hunting spider. Despite its name, it does not rely on its eyesight to hunt, but its super sensitive leg hairs to capture unsuspecting prey.

Unimaginably vast, the Pacific Ocean is 99% water and only 1% land - you could fit the whole of the world's landmasses into it and still have enough room for another Africa! This landmark documentary series explores the sheer scale and majesty of the largest ocean on Earth, the isolation of its islands, the extraordinary journeys wildlife and humans have gone through to reach these specks of land, and what happened to both after their arrival.
