You will be surprised and even shocked as stunning CGI effects and the latest in cutting-edge photography reveal the body's inner and outer workings in vivid detail.SIGHTSight is the king of the senses; more than 80 percent of what we know of the world comes through our eyes. Experience one of the body's most critical and fascinating components from the inside out.STRENGTHThe human body is engineered for strength power and endurance. Bone is as sturdy as concrete but flexible enough to resist breaking. It's even light enough to allow us to be quicker off the mark than a racehorse.SENSATIONLess than one twentieth of an inch below the surface of the skin are the ultra-sensitive 'antennae' that allow us to sense the world around us. This vital layer is the gateway to the original information superhighway -- the nervous system.BRAIN POWERThe driving force behind every one of us is the most powerful organ in the natural world: the human brain. A central processing unit that generates as many electrical impulses in a single day as all the telephones in the world put together.System Requirements:Running Time: 165 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 014381438628 Manufacturer No: DIS4386DVD
