Review & Giveaway: Life After People DVD

Talk about an eye opener!

This 94-minute DVD from The History Channel explores what could possibly happen to the planet if one day people just ceased to exist. They're not talking nuclear war or natural disaster, just if people suddenly disappeared.

From the site: "If humans were to suddenly disappear, what would happen to our planet - the structures we've built, the everyday items we take for granted, domesticated and wild animal, plants, trees? What would become of the things that define our species and leave our mark on this Earth?"

When I first received this DVD, I wasn't sure how I would feel about. However, when I started watching it, I was intrigued at the thought of "Life After People". I mean, who will feed our pets, keep the generators running, protect the structures from being overcome by vegetation? The strangest feeling of all is when you realize that in their portrayed senario, you no longer exist either. Creepy!

This DVD can be purchased through Amazon for $12.99.

  61. WOW!!!! Sounds awesome. Something about it reminds me of the Will Smith movie "I am Legend". Even though there were some people left (and some creepy ones!) he was pretty much alone.

    I couldn't image life without "us".

  63. I guess we would want to think that the buildings and engineering feats that mankind has built can last forever. But this film says otherwise. It is sobering to think that we would leave nothing much behind in the long run.

  158. Thanks for the great article 1st! With aid of improving ur life on net, I’d like to introduce something about Jordan Shoes to u. That’s right, something about Air Jordan or we can say something about Nike Shoes (Nike Air)and whatnot. Depending on the economy crisis, so many people start purchasing items on net cos that can save much money. The point is how to search a good place for jordan shoes? There’re millions of site supply different kinds of air jordans and which site is the place we can order for jordan shoes? All of us know that some of them are unauthentic or their air jordans weren’t good enough. For example: my sister bought a pair of UGG Boots from one site ,then she got the shoes so fast, and my classmate purhcase UGG Slippers on the other site but she didn’t get the slippers for a long time. The same as Silver Jewelry, especially Tiffany such household name. Back to our question, how to find “Mr right”? My suggestion is contact their online support! There should be the great livesupport on the great site, so before you place the order for Jordan Shoes, go to their support! Good luck!
