The G.O.A.T is 100 tomorrow 🎉⁠ ⁠ David Attenborough has lived a life most people couldn’t even dream of, and some of the facts about him are just wild. From having more than 50 species named in his honour to becoming the only person to win BAFTAs across black and white, colour, HD and 3D, his legacy in broadcasting is pretty much unmatched.⁠ ⁠ It hasn’t all been straightforward though. He was once rejected for a job as a radio producer before going on to become one of the most recognisable voices on the planet. Despite travelling the globe, he’s never learned to drive, isn’t a fan of rats, and even had baby mountain gorillas try to nick his shoes.⁠ ⁠ 💬 “It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement…” – and after a life like his, it’s hard to argue with that.⁠ ⁠ #attenborough #entertainment #ladbible
