There is something about the power of savage forces wreaking havoc and devastation that is at once mesmerising and frightening.You never know when a simple task could turn deadly but knowing exactly what to do in these situations could be the difference between life and death. Discovery Channel brings two survival series - DESTROYED IN SECONDSand WORST CASE SCENARIO everynight at 10 pm and 10:30 pm in March.
From well-orchestrated implosions of massive structures, to rampaging tornadoes and catastrophic mid-air collisions, Discovery Channel's DESTROYED IN SECONDSpresents some of the most shocking destructions captured on film. Hosted by Ron Pitts, the series explores the causes of catastrophe and discovers how families and communities bounce back from the devastating events.Automobile crashes, violent explosions, property razed by fire, race car accidents and deadly floods are shown in shocking detail, accompanied by commentary explaining the massive destruction portrayed. The new episodes of DESTROYED IN SECONDS air every night at 10 pm on Discovery Channel.
For most of us, being trapped in a scorpion-infested cave or getting lost in the Sahara desert would seem like our worst nightmare, while getting caught in potentially fatal situations in an urban jungle, less far-fetched. However, most crises arise close to home or in everyday life. MAN VS. WILD host and survival expert Bear Grylls tackles urban survival and potentially deadly circumstances to provide tips in the new episodes of WORST CASE SCENARIO every night at 10:30 pm. Relying solely on the advice and instruction from experts, Bear escapes a multitude of deadly circumstances, proving that anyone equipped with the right knowledge and skills can survive even in the worst of scenarios - from escaping a high-rise apartment fire and stopping a car with failed brakes to fending off a shark attack and surviving a ride in a plunging elevator.
Both the series bring extraordinary scenariosthat anyone can find in their surroundings and demonstrate what it takes to stay alive.
