Sunderbans (Forest of Beauty) is in West Bengal, India, and is the only place on Earth that is the natural habitat of Royal Bengal Tigers that have never known to be fearful of humans. One tiger has been known to kill three fully grown men, leaving behind orphans and widows who belong to poor tribes, dependent on harvesting wild honey and fishing, in a swampy mangrove region. About 80 people are killed annually by these ferocious beasts with razor-sharp jaws, whose forepaws can shatter bones, and sharp teeth can pierce a skull in one bite. Amidst religious superstitions, the narrator attempts to explain the cause behind their taste for human meat in a region devoid of electricity, roadways, firearms and safe drinking water, and why the villagers continue to live there despite of being stalked and mauled on land and water alike.

Start your engines! The international race to build the world's first crash-proof car is on. The stakes are enormous. Every 27 seconds someone gets killed behind the wheel of a car. This year more than a million will die world-wide. What if engineers could design a car too smart to crash? Will drivers trust the car to take over the decision-making in the critical seconds before impact? Thinking Cars takes viewers behind closed doors into the secret and controversial world of brain caps, eye-trackers, heat-sensing cameras, and sophisticated sensors - the tools of the automotive visionaries who dare to dream of a world in which cars are smarter than the driver. A car that monitors the driver - is he paying attention or on the verge of falling asleep?
