The White Diamond

(2004) Maiden flight of a helium-filled, teardrop-shaped balloon over the Amazon canopy in Guyana - 12 years after the fatal accident flight of its predecessor. Breathtaking views of the jungle canopy and eccentric characters, including balloonist Dr. Graham Dorrington and a rooster-loving Rasta. Plus TEN THOUSAND YEARS OLDER (2001): First encounter of an Amazon tribe in 1982 and what they're like now.
