It is the greatest gathering of ocean predators on the planet. Dolphins, sharks, whales, and seals converge to feast along the breathtaking South African coast in one of nature’s most amazing events. Coastal Predators: A 4-D Experience is an astonishing underwater Armageddon. Each year billions of sardines are pushed into the shallows as the ocean’s most incredible animals forego natural instincts towards each other to come together for a common quest. Without the annual sardine run, the lives of the animals caught up in the drama hang in the balance. Stunning visuals and high octane action with 4-D effects bring this great spectacle to life as you dive into this feeding frenzy of epic proportions.

There is a crisis on Dino Island and the Earth Science Team has to capture ‘Tony’, the only remaining T-Rex in the world, before a volcano erupts and wipes out all life on the island. It’s a perilous race against time as lava flows, cliffs break away and Tony falls into a deep and fast whirlpool. Can we save Tony (and ourselves) from extinction?
In 2020 humankind is on the brink of a major environmental disaster. To save us from extinction, scientists develop a supertree. Follow the life of a super-tree in a spectacular ride that bounces, tumbles and flies through the farm known as Himalamazon.
