Physics in River Monsters
River Monsters is probably the best show on TV. It follows the fisherman, Jeremy Wade, and his crew on his journeys to crazy third world countries in search of River Monsters. Every second you watch the show you can find something that involves physics. The best part of the show is when he starts to reel in the fish. The fish that he catches weigh hundreds of pounds which takes a lot of force to bring in. Most likely, the fish is exerting a force in the opposite directions that Jeremy Wade is using a force. The fish is trying to swim back out to the deep water while he is trying to bring him in. Most of the time Jeremy finds a way to reel the fish in, which has taken over 2 hours in some instances, or the fish will break the line.
