A new six-part series featuring extraordinary stories of heroism and bravery from around the world, presented by Michael Buerk and Juliet Morris.
This week three men swim for their lives through shark-infested waters after their boat breaks up off Belize, and a paraglider pilot is left hanging by a thread after she crashes into a crane 100ft above the ground. Plus video footage of a racing driver saving a fellow competitor from a burning car and the first of six reports on the work of the AMREF Flying Doctor service in east Africa.
