One particular scene had people on Maninilip (2025)the edge of their seats during the latest episode of BBC's latest David Attenborough nature documentary, Dynasties.
It followed a group of emperor penguins trying to survive the brutal winter in Antarctica. When a particularly nasty storm blew some of the penguins down into a ravine with walls too steep for them to climb, things got almost too real.

That's when the Dynastiescrew, in a move later called "unprecedented" by BBC Earth on Twitter, decided to prevent nature from taking its course and act.
Having watched the abandoned penguins and chicks try to get out of the ravine for days with no luck, they intervened as the chicks started dying in the ravine.

"We've given it a lot of thought, we've decided we're definitely going to dig a shallow ramp that they'll hopefully use," director William Lawson tells the camera, as the crew gets their shovels out and start digging a path for the penguins to follow out of the ravine.
Then, as the penguins then make their way out, viewers let out a collective sigh of relief on social media.
