“Wow, I'd like a job like yours!” - Matt Damon
Diving with sharks, leaping over 200-metre deep ravines, swimming in polar seas – the intrepid reporter Harro Füllgrabe does what nobody else would ever dare do.
His reportages for a scientific German TV programme take him all around the world – and no assignment is too dangerous. He swims through the Amazon with piranhas, dances himself into a state of ecstasy with shamans in Peru and trains with warrior monks in southern Germany. He tests the toughest prisons, drives along the most perilous roads and runs away from bulls in Pamplona.
In short reportages, he tells us candidly and humorously about moments of happiness, disasters and tests of courage – about the everyday life of an adventure reporter.
"Harro Füllgrabe travels around the world and does what every child dreams of but never actually does."
