WATCHING DISCOVERY COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!
- One-hour special features real-life stories of individuals who cheated death by using tips from Discovery Channel programmes -

They had little hope of survival and death was staring them squarely in the face. But today these survivors are alive and well, and will reveal what made all the difference on a special programme DISCOVERY SAVED MY LIFE. From the scorching deserts of Utah to the Great White shark-infested coast of Oregon, these individuals endured periods of extreme peril, where their odds of survival dwindled as time ticked on. Witness how life-saving advice and tips from some of Discovery Channel's most notable series quite literally helped them escape the jaws of death.

Throughout its 25-year history, Discovery Channel has been entertaining viewers with amazing programmes, introducing them to some of the most fascinating creatures, people, and places on the planet. For the individuals profiled on the one-hour special DISCOVERY SAVED MY LIFE, what they watched on television became horrifyingly real, but proved extremely useful in their time of desperation. DISCOVERY SAVED MY LIFE re-tells the real-life stories of ordinary people who rebounded from the brink of death - thanks in part to what they remembered from their favourite Discovery Channel programmes.

Hear six incredible stories of people who survived deadly situations due to life-saving tips seen on Discovery Channel's programmes such as Crocodile Feeding Frenzy, Day of the Shark, I Shouldn't Be Alive, Man vs. Wild and more. DISCOVERY SAVED MY LIFE features a variety of real-life situations, including a young man who barely escaped the jaws of an alligator, a surfer who miraculously survived a Great White shark attack, a couple who endured freezing conditions for over a week before finding rescue, three Texas fishermen who spent eight days clinging to their capsized boat until help arrived, a father who witnessed his son being buried alive in an avalanche, and the teenager who fought for his life after falling through the ice on a local pond.
