The Hottest Place on Earth (2009)

At the northern end of the Great Rift Valley in Africa, there is a unique place on earth: the Danakil Desert in Ethiopia. It is perhaps the most uninhabitable place known, with successive attacks of volcanoes and earthquakes spewing out volcanic magma and harmful gases that continue to tear apart the surface. This is confirmed to be the hottest place on earth, and the idea that anyone can live here is ridiculous. But some people really live here and have lived here for thousands of years. A legendary brave nomadic tribe called Afar! A team of scientists embarked on this incredible journey, hoping to discover how people survive in this extreme environment, how their lives, and even their physiology, are shaped by the environment around them. We want to explore what is beneath the surface of this magical land? Trying to unlock her secret.
