he's probably lived the most fulfilling life of anyone i know of, he must have been almost everywhere in the world and encountered almost every living species in a career of 50 or more years, there's passion for you
I dread the day when I hear the news he's passed away. We need to start educating ourselves and the younger generation about who we are, what we are, where we come from, and how every other living thing on the planet is indeed our family in one way or another. There will never be another Attenborough, just as there will never be another Darwin, but in the future I hope our species will be truly intelligent, by learning what is on our front door steps and beyond, not what is in a fairy tale book.
My dad is a biology teacher and we'd watch a VHS of the old Life on Earth series. Attenborough's one of the many voices I grew up with on account of my dad - that and Harry Kalas, the Phillies' announcer.
@tetabiakti He was also Controller of BBC2 in the late 60', a high point in TV production, not only in Natural History, but drama, arts, comedy, news, politics.
He can be both. He really is a talented man.

If David Attenborough dies, I die as well.

His voice feels like coming home as I remember snuggling into my dad to watch wildlife on one, magic times.

Scientist, broadcaster, adventurer, and a great teacher. I also like his modesty and his sense of humor.
