Human: The World Within

I'm a student nurse. I like how the human world is explained with so many real stories and medical aspects mixed up well. Would like more of the show!

Really? A multi part series that could have blown us away with all of the modern advances we have made in technology that give us the ability to dig deeper into the inner workings of the human body and instead we get this. A woman that walks around barefoot in the dessert. A Hindu woman that is obviously a strict vegan, and a native american ultra marathon runner that we are only lead to believe survives on blue corn mush and herbal tea?? No agenda here folks. I had to tap out on this one. Netflix... You have to step your game up on these documentaries because this kind of stuff is lazy at best.

Filled with facts I learned well over 10 years ago. Sprinkled in some very rare new information, along with some director's idea of cool shots of people walking and totally unnecessary B footage.

It's like they took 1 episodes worth of info, and spread it out over a series. Then they sprinkled in some agendas, and bewildering choices of footage.

I was very excited to watch this, but ended up tapping out, and skipping ahead for most it in search of anything interesting.

Love this series by Netflix. A lot of hard work has gone into making this spectacular masterpiece.

I just have one beef with it. In the third episode they were discussing fasting and they chose a Hindu to highlight it's benefits. Puhleez! If there is any one religion that is associated with fasting, it's Islam. Thirty consecutive days of not eating, drinking or smoking anything from dawn to dusk. And this fasting is a must for every Muslim, unless he is too ill.

I believe Netflix missed the trick here. Would have loved to have had them explore this phenomenon, from a scientific perspective.

Anyways, this is a brilliant effort. A must watch.

All I can say about this documentary series, is just watch it already. It's incredibly interesting and everything is explained very well and clear. Makes you look at your body in a different way and makes you realize how connected everything in this universe is.
