Incredible iguana/snake chase scene

posted by Jason Kottke   Nov 07, 2016

The year's best action sequence isn't in a Marvel movie or prestige TV drama, it's from the first episode of Planet Earth II, which aired in the UK over the weekend. In it, a group of snakes chase a small iguana, which seems at the outset to have a tiny chance of escape.

Good god, that was thrilling. We might have a new champion.

Update: I love Tony Zhou's cut with the soundtrack from Mad Max: Fury Road (with temp music, he says). Be sure to watch to the end.

Update: Snoop Dogg narrates the snake/iguana chase as only he can.
